The owner of this account is MR. SMITH B. ANDREAS, A foreigner, and the manager of Petro-Technical Support Service.A chemical engineering by profession and he died in auto crash and since then no other person knows about this account or any thing concerning it , The account has no other beneficiary and my investigation proved to me as well that,His company does not know anything about this account and the amount involved is us dollars.($26.2m).
I want to transfer this money into a safe foreigners account abroad but i don't know any foreigner because this money can not be approved to a local bank here, but can only approved to any foreign account because the money is in us dollars and the former owner of the account is MR. SMITH B. ANDREAS and is a foreigner too.

I want us to see face to face or sign a binding agreement to bind us together so that you can receive this money into a foreign account or any account of your choice where the fund will be remitted.And i will fly to your country for withdrawal and sharing and other investments.I am contacting you because of the needs to invole a foreigner with foreign account and foreign beneficiary. I need your co-operation to make this work fine.Because the management is ready to approve this payment to any foreigner who has correct information of this account,Which i will give to you later immediately,If you are able and with ability to handle such amount in strict confidence and trust according to my instructions and advice for our mutual benefit because this opportunity will never come again in my life. I need truthfull person in this business because i don't want to make mistake, i need your strong assurance and trust.With my positon now in the office i can transfer this money to any
foreigner reliable account that this money will be intact pending my physical arrival in your country for sharing.
I will apply for annual leave to get visa immediately i hear from you that you are ready to act and receive this fund in your account. I will use my position and influence to effect legal approvals and onward transfer of this money to your account with appropriate clearance forms of the ministries and foreign exchange departments.At the conclusion of this business , you will be entitle for 20% of the total amount,75% for me, while 5% will be for expenses both parties might have incured during the process of transferring.
