Dear Partner,
Good day, firstly, I apologize for sending you this sensitive information via e-
mail instead of a Certified mail/Post-mail. This is due to the urgency and
importance of the information. I humbly crave your indulgence to read this e-
mail with all seriousness of purpose because this project is based on
Trust,confidentiality and sincerity of purpose in order to have an acceptable
meeting of the minds.
I am a fifty two(52)years old established lawyer. My name is Barr.Ayodele
Samuel,a solicitor and personal attorney to an expatriate and a consultant with
an Oil Company,ADDAX (Now deceased) He died in the Tsunami disaster on 26th
december 2004 while on vacation in Thailand.
Eight years ago, My Client successfully executed a contract for the Nigeria
Government worth US$18.3M, .A part payment of USD$9M was paid to my client,
while the balance of USD$9.3M was still unpaid before my client died in the
Indian Ocean Tsunami disaster. However, all my efforts to locate the possible
next of kin proved abortive. Untill his sudden demise, He was not married and
was 57years old.
NOW THE CRUX OF THIS E-LETTER is that the Government Of Nigeria through the
Central Bank is fully paying all foreign Contractors who have successfully
executed their contracts and my client is among those benefited in this second
quarter payment schedule which has already been approved and ready for payment.
As his personal attorney/Adviser, his Bank has officially notified and
instructed me to forward particulars of my client's next of kin within the next
14 official working days so that he can be paid the outstanding USD9.3M
otherwise his payment will be diverted to the Government coffers account as
uncliamed bill.
Since I have been unsuccessful in locating any of his relatives, I decided to
contact you for a deal so that we can work together as a team to remit the money
to your account as my client next of kin since I do not want to seat and watch
my client hard earned entitlement to go astray,it will be easy for us to achieve
without any hiccups because i have all documents at my disposal.
Although I know that a transaction of this magnitude might make anyone
apprehensive but I would like to assure you that I am proposing this project to
you with the best of intensions. As a lawyer, I have the power to secure all
the necessary legal documents that will be used for this claim.
All I require from you is your honest co-operation to enable us see this deal

successful conclusion of this project,you will be compensated with 30% of the
