 FIRST I MUST SOLICIT YOUR CONFIDENCE IN THIS  TRANSACTION, THIS IS BY VIRTUE OF IT'S BEING VERY
 CONFIDENTIAL.  I AM (HENRY DURU) MANAGER WITH THE UNION  BANK OF NIGERIA (U.B.N) PLC LAGOS. 
 
I CAME TO KNOW OF YOU IN MY PRIVATE SEARCH FOR A  RELIABLE AND REPUTABLE PERSON TO HANDLE THIS CONFIDENTIAL,TRANSACTION WHICH INVOLVES THE TRANSFER  OF A HUGE SUM OF MONEY TO A FOREIGN BANK  ACCOUNT  REQUIRING MAXIMUM CONFIDENCE.

 BALANCE OF US$14 M (FOURTEEN MILLION,DOLLARS) WHICH THE BANK NOW UNQUESTIONABLY EXPECTS TO BE CLAIMED BY  MARCK SMITHS NEXT OF-KIN OR ALTERNATIVELY BE DONATED TO A
 DISCREDITED TRUST FUND FOR ARMS AND AMMUNITION AT A  MILITARY WAR COLLEGE HERE IN NIGERIA. 
 
 FERVENT EFFORTS BEING MADE BY THE UNION BANK OF  NIGERIA PLC TO GET IN TOUCH WITH ANY OF THE MARCK'S  FAMILY HAS PROVED ABORTIVE. IT IS BECAUSE OF THE  PERCEIVED POSSIBILITY OF NOT BEING ABLE TO LOCATE LATE  ENGINEER MARCK'S NEXT-OF-KIN (HE HAD NO WIFE OR  CHILDREN) THAT THE  MANAGEMENT UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF  OUR CHAIRMAN AND MEMBER OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS,  RETIRED MAJOR GEN. KALU IKE KALU, THAT AN ARRANGEMENT  BE MADE FOR THE FUNDS TO BE DECLARED  "UNCLAIMED" AND  SUBSEQUENTLY BE DONATED TO THE TRUST FUND FOR ARMS
AND  AMMUNITION TO FURTHER ENHANCE THE CAUSE OF WAR IN AFRICA AND THE WORLD IN GENERAL.
 
 IN ORDER TO AVERT THIS NEGATIVE DEVELOPMENT, SOME OF  MY TRUSTED COLLEAGUES AND I NOW SEEK YOUR PERMISSION TO HAVE YOU STAND AS NEXT-OF-KIN TO LATE ENGINEER  MARCK'S SO THAT THE FUNDS USD$14M WOULD BE  RELEASED AND PAID INTO YOUR BANK ACCOUNT AS THE  NEXT-OF-KIN.

YOU WILL GET A NEGOTIABLE  PERCENTAGE OF  THIS MONEY FOR ASSISTING US IN THIS DEAL. WE SHALL  ALSO MAP OUT A PERCENTAGE OF THIS MONEY  TO TAKE CARE  OF INCIDENTAL EXPENSES THAT MAY ARISE IN THE COURSE OF  THIS TRANSACTION.
