I am barrister PHILLI AGU , a legal practitioner, I am the personal attorney to late mr Michael , who used to work with Chevron Nigeria limited, here in Nigeria. On the 27th of January 2002, my client, his wife and their three children were involved in Ikeja bomb blast here in my country.
My client and his family unfortunately lost there lives.
Since then I have made several enquiries to locate any of my clients extended relatives,this has also proved unsuccessful. After these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided and do some research in the internet, to locate any member of his family.
Hence I contacted you. I have contacted you to assist me in repatriating the money and property left behind by my client before they get confiscated or declared unserviceable by the bank where these huge deposits were lodged.Particularly, the Acess Bank of Nigeria
Plc, Lagos Branch where my client deposited US$20.95million dollars.
The Bank has issued me a notice to provide the next of kin or have the Account confiscated within the next ten official working days.
Since I have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives for over three (3) years now I seek your
consent to present you as the next of kin of the deceased, so that the proceeds of this account valued atUS$20.95million dollars can be transferred to your account there in your country,then you and me can share the money.
I have all necessary legal documents that back up the claim we may make. All I require is your honest co-operation to enable us see this deal through. I guarantee that this will be executed under legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law.Please indicate your readiness to assist me,so that all the informations about this funds will be passed to you immediately.

business is confidentiality.
So let it be only between me and you.If you give me your full coperation and this transaction is properly executed, I am prepared to give you 40% of the total sum for your kind assistance.50% will be for me and 10% percent will be for any expences we may incure
along in this transaction.Please get in touch with me by my private email below to enable us discuss further.
