Dear Sir,
I am Barrister Albert Ayodele (Esq) personal attorney to Engr. Anthony Wegner, a foreigner who worked with Zenon Oil Company here in Nigeria here in after,shall be referred to as my client.My client with his entire family (The wife and Children) were among the victims of an explosion in Lagos,Nigeria,that happened on January 27,2003 which, claimed many lives and property.
See the 2 website of the bomb explosion below:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/africa/2718295.stmhttp://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/africa/2698081.stm
I have made several inquiries to your embassy after his internment to locate any of his extended relatives, but all this has proved unsuccessful. Consequently, I decided to contact you over the Internet, to assiste me to get this money out from the company My purpose of contacting you is to assist in repatriating the deposited fund of US$13, Million USD that was lodged in by my late client in a Finance Company when he was alive.
The repatriation is as a result of a fourteen days notice (ultimatum) that has been issued to me by the Finance company requesting me to present to them a next of kin to my late client so that the fund would be repatriated to him/her.
Failure to do that after the expiration of the ultimatum will result in the confiscation and freezing of the account by the finance company. For the fact that I have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives for over two years plus now, I now seek your consent to present you as the next kinto the deceased since you have the same last name with my client, so that the fund would be transferred to you.
Therefore, on receipt of your positive response, I shall officially present you to the finance company as the next of kin to the inheritance so that they will commence the processing of your fund transfer.
I need your assistance and co-operation to get this deal done. Because as a foreigner,you stand a better position to be presented through documentation as the next of kin/Partner since the deceased is also a foreigner,this is the reason why I could not do this deal alone as a Nigerian and a Blackman as well.
I will not fail to inform you that this transaction is 100% risk free. On smooth conclusion of this transaction,you will be entitled to 40% of the total sum as gratification, while 60% will be for me.and Please you have been advised to keep this"Top Secret"as i am still in service and intend to retire from service after we conclude this deal with you.
I would want you to feed me with the following details:
Your Full name:
Age:Sex:Phone Number and Fax if any:Occupation:
Furthermore, what I require from you is your honest cooperation to enable us see this transactions through. I guarantee that this will be executed under legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law.
Yours faithfully,Barrister Albert Ayodele
