Attn: Sir,

In the course of our duty we discovered some dormant funds either
Confiscated by government agencies or abandoned due to one reason Or the
other. Over Two Hundred Million United States Dollars (USD$200,000,000.00)
were traced to be dormant. We found out that The agencies that ordered the
confiscations Have been dissolved. As it stands now, we are very confident
that The government has no knowledge of this sum, neither does the Dissolved
agencies have access to the said sum again. We still have Almost one year to
conclude and it is only then that we shall give Official reports and
probably refer this over-(USD$200,000,000.00) to the federal government's
purse.
It is in the light of this that my colleagues and myself decided to
Confidently contact you urgently so that we could perfectly present you or
your company as one of the foreign contractors that owned any of the account
in Nigeria, and we shall pay you only $5 Million United States Dollars
(USD$5,000,000.00) to be delivered To you live in your country by ACCESS
DIPLOMATIC COURIER SERVICE WHOM WE HAVE ARRANGED WITH TO DELIVER THIS MONEY
CASH TO YOU in your country or Any other country you may want the diplomatic
courier company Deliver the money sealed package to you. Thereafter we shall
refer Back to the government;s purse the balance of One Hundred And NINETY
FIVE Million Dollars (USD$195,000,000.00). We have carefully Worked out the
strategies to secure all the necessary DOCUMENTS in Your name and there is
no room for failure, BECAUSE, we are still at The head of the Presidential
Panel, On Bank Capitalization And Consolidation in Nigeria and it is only
our report that counts.If we have understood ourselves and believed with
trust that we Could do this DEAL together and move this sum of FIVE Million
Dollars (USD$5,000,000.00) TO YOU, then forward to us urgently the
Following;
