Dear Sir/Madam,
This a honest plea from the voice of a widow.
I am Dr. Mrs. Maryam Abacha, wife to the late Nigerian
Head of state,General Sani Abacha who died on the 8th
of June 1998 while still
on active service for our Country.
l am contacting you with the hope that you will be of
great assistance to me, I currently have within my
reach the sum of US$24.5million U.S
dollars cash which l intend to use for investment
purposes outside Nigeria. This money came as a result
of a payback contract deal between my husband and a
Russian firm in our country's multi-billion dollar
Ajaokuta steel plant.The Russian partners returned my
husbands share being the above sum after his death.
Presently, the new civilian Government has intensified
their probe into my husbands financial resources which
has led to the freezing of all
our accounts, local and foreign, the revoking of all
our business licences and the arrest of my First son.
In view of this I acted very fast to withdraw this
money from one of
our finance houses before it was closed down. I have
deposited the money in a security company with the
help of very loyal officials of my late husband who is
a lawyer.
No record is known about this fund by the government
because there is no documentation showing that we
received such funds. Due to the current situation in
the country and government attitude to my family,I
cannot make use of this money within, thus I seek your
help in transferring this funds out of the sub African
region.When you thruogh this site you see with me that
the present govt does
not even want me and my family to fall back to any in
their fight to take whatever my husband saved both at
home and abroad but thank God no body know about this
very fund.

Bearing in mind that you may assist me, l have decided
to part with 30% of the total sum and also mapped out
10% to take care of any expenses we may incure in the
course of the transaction.
Your URGENT response is needed. correspondence must be
through my e-mail( mariamabacha2005@zipmail.com.br) Please include
your personal phone and fax number and your address .
Regards
Dr. Mrs. Maryam Abacha
