>From the Desk of:
Mr. James Uche
Lagos Nigeria.

Dear Sir,

With great pleasure I, MR. JAMES UCHE, Manager of a Bank (name upheld) is
writing you in respect of a foreign customer an Oil consultant/contractor
with the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, Engr. Nam Hyewon made
a>numbered time (Fixed) Deposit for twelve calendar months valued at
US$25,000,000.00 (Twenty-five Million Dollars) in my branch.

Upon maturity, I sent a routine notification to his forwarding address but
got no reply. After a month, we sent a reminder and finally we discovered
from his contract employers, the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation
that Engr.Nam Hyewon died in Korean Air Flight 801, which crashed in Guam
on August 1997 with other passengers onboard. I therefore made further
investigation and discovered that Engr. Nam Hyewon died without making a
WILL, and all attempts to trace his next of kin was fruitless. Also,he did
not declare any next of kin or relations in all his official documents,
including his Bank Deposit paperwork in my Bank. This sum of
US$25,000,000.00 is still sitting in my Bank and the interest is being
rolled over with the principal sum at the end of each year.

Since the demise of this our customer, I have personally watched the
account with keen interest to see the next of kin but all has proved
abortive as no one has come to claim his FIXED DEPOSIT fund of
USD.$25million, [Twenty five million United States Dollars which has been
with my branch for a very long time. Since his death, none of his
next-of-kin or relations has come forward to lay claims for this money as
the heir.

A member of our government trade delegation to your country gave your
impeccable profile to me.Hence I have decided to seek your co-operation in
this business deal due to the sensitivity of this transaction. It may
interest you to know that I am only contacting you as a foreigner because
>this money cannot be approved to a local Bank account here, but can only
be approved to a foreigner with an account since the money is in US
Dollars. I have decided as a matter of urgency upon this discovery now
seek your permission to have you stand as next of kin to the deceased
Engr. Nam Hyewon as No one has ever come forward to claim this fund. In
accordance to Nigerian Law, fund deposited for a long period of time
without claim will be reverted to the Nigerian Government treasury if
nobody applies to claim this fund after a long period of time. I want you
>to co-operate with me so that the fruits of this man's labour will not
get into the hands of some unsrupulous corrupt government officials if
NOT CLAIMED now. I have secured from the probate an Order of Madamus to
locate any of deceased beneficiaries. Hence I am contacting you with this
proposal.

This is simple, I will like you to provide immediately your full names and
address, Date of Birth,Occupation,Tel & Fax Numbers so that the Attorney
will prepare the necessary documents and affidavits which will put you in
place as the next of kin. We shall employ the services of two Attorneys
for drafting and notorization of the WILL and to obtain the necessary
documents and letter of probate/administration in your favour for the
transfer. The Bank cannot release the fund from his account unless someone
applies for claim as the next-of-kin to the deceased as indicated in our
banking guidelines. I have almost resolved to finalize this transaction
with some money to secure documents in your name as the bonafide
beneficiary of this fund $25m which guarantees our safety and successful
transfer. With the above suggestion, It is reliable,safe and quick for
transfer process.

At the successful conclusion of this business, your goodself shall be
entitled to have 40% that is, USD$10m of the total money while I will have
55% that is USD$13.750M and 5% that is USD$1.250m for communications and
other expenses. I am ready to invest a reasonable percentage of mine into
any viable business you suggest as a joint partner.

Your response is highly imperative as this is a TWO-man business deal
transaction as I shall then provide you with more details and relevant
documents that will help you understand the transaction. I need your
assistance and co-operation to this reality as I have done my Home-work
and fine tune the best way to create you as all the paperwork for this
transaction will be done by the Attorney and my position as the Branch
Manager guarantees the successful execution of this transaction with you
as the beneficiary to this fund. Your percentage will also be a source of
upliftment. You have absolutely nothing to LOSE in assisting me instead,
you have so much to GAIN. Be rest assured that this transaction would be
most profitable for both of us.

I will appreciate your early reply for commencement of business. Contact
me for acknowledgement by E-mail and whereby you are not interested,
please indicate in your reply so that I can seek for the assistance of
someone else.
