management and board of my directors because the management of my bank
has been deliberating on how to revert this fund to the bank privacy

years now, I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin to the
deceased since you are a foreigner so that the proceeds of this account
valued at eighteen million two hundred thousand united state dollars
can be paid to you and then you and I will share the money fifty
percent to me and forty percent to you, while ten percent will be
mapped out for any miscellaneous expenses that might incur in the cause
of this transaction.

in the wrong hands. All I require is your honest and sincere co-
operation to enable us see this ordeal and claim through, again I
