Dear Honorable
It is with heart full of hope that I write to seek your help in the context
below. I am Alhaja. Hadija Abacha the secret and unceremonial second wife
of the former Nigeria Head of state Late General Sani Abacha, whose sudden
death occurred on 8th of June, 1998. Now, the new War situation in Togo
where this money was kept in trust Deposit Account of a Security Company,
has made me to move this money further through my Attorney, to a financial
Security Company in Europe for safety under a new name, which will be made
known to you when you require the deposit documents. Having done this, I,
still need to hide this money further into your personal custody to allow
investment of this money and your acceptance of this arrengement attracts
30% of the total US$48.000.000.00 Dollars. This money was initially WILLED
to me and my two Children, being a secret wife of my husband
You must be aware that my late husband, made numerious deposits with the
Swisbank which is being returned now because he used his name to make the
deposits. This monies are currently being returned to this Country by the
Swisbank. Though, the populace are still afriad this money will fissle out
into personal account holders of the rulling party members, this is so because
you can not make a monkey a guard over bananas.
However, the new Government has on assumption of office set up a panel of
enquiry to probe the financial activities of my late husband
(former Head of State) with a decision to Freeze All his Assets respectively
and also enriched their on purses throught diversion of this funds. The
investigative team have submitted their report, presently some cash and
assets have been frozen and seized.
Fortunately, My Lawyer who helped in getting this money to the Financial
Security Company in Europe has advice that is not totally safe for this
money to still stay in a Financial Company any where because there are some
great dangers, if the Directors of this Company should come to know that
this money is from the Abacha's family they may likely return it to the
Country to be redirected by the rulling party to some personal account overseas.
So on this note, i must confess that i need your urgent reply so that this
money will be evacuated into your account under your accounts name. this
will stop my fears of retuning this money to my Country. The government
had earlierplaced foreign Travel Embargo on all our family members and seized
all known local and international outfits of our business empire if not
for the intervention of the human right activist, Mohammed would have still
been in detention, thank God he is now release under Oath of some amount
of money he can not provide. The situation has been so terrible that we
are virtually living on the assistance of well wishers.
In view of this plight therefore, I expect you to be trustworthy and kind
enough to respond to this call (S. O. S) to save me and my children from
a hopeless future. I hereby agree to compensate your sincere effort in this
regard with 30% of the fund when finally
received in your local bank account. The attorney have perfected arrangement
with the Financial Security Company to effect complete dislodgment of this
money within a week of the receipt of your response Stating your full name,
phone and fax numbers. Remember, the Attoney guaranteed 100% risk-free
and smooth business.
Please all your information should be sent to my personal attorney and a
close confidant who runs most of my secret business (Attorney, Steve William
Uba Esq) E-mail: attorneystev@mail2lawyer.com
I look forward to your quick response. God be praised.
Best Wishes,
Alhaja, Hadija Abacha.
