secret and is sealed in two Metal Boxes for security reasons.
I personally therefore appeal to you seriously and religiously for your
urgent assistant to move this money into your country where I believe it
will be safe since I cannot leave the country due to the restriction movement
imposed on the members of my family by the Nigerian Government.

give you my family Lawyer contact phone and fax numbers with the Chambers
address who will arrange with you for face to face meeting out side Nigerian
in order to liaise with you toward effective completion of this transaction
since my movement is restricted and my telephone conversation is being monitored.
However, arrangements have been put in place to move this money out of the
country in the secret vault through a security company to abroad and as
soon as you indicate your interest, myLawyer shall send you the Air Bill
of the Luggage and other related documents so that you can help to claim
the Luggage.
Conclusively, we have agreed to offer you 30% of the total sum, while 60%
is to be held on trust by you until we decide on a suitable business investment
in your country and more also 10% is mapped out for internal and external
expenses. Subsequent to our free movement by the Nigerian Government. Please,
reply urgently and treat with absolute confidentiality and sincerity.
