I am Jordan Bruce (ATTORNEY IN FACT). I got your email address through our chamber of commerce, trade and industry while searching for trustworthy individual who will assit me in this business. My client by Name Mr. Barry Kelly an American
national and oil consultant who I have been his legal representative(attorney) for many years died with the members of his family in autobile accident on 17th July 2001. He has $38,500,000.00 (Thirty eight million five hundred thousand US dollars) floating in his suspense account and all the effort I made to locate any member of his family through their Embassy here proved abortive. Now, this money is still in the bank and nobody is coming to claim the money, the Management under the inf luence of their Chairman and Members of the Board of Directors ZENITH BANK OF NIGERIA PLC, mandated me as his lawyer to provide the next of kin or his relation and failure to do so after 4years, the fund to be declared "Unclaimed" and subsequently be donated
to the trust funds for arms and ammunition according to bank law. This will enhance the course of War in Africa and the World in general, this is totally a wrong idea, it is not good for the world. People are dying outside there due to one or more dreadful diseases, we can make their lives more meaningful. In the light of the above, I need you as a foreigner to act as the next of kin. You will arrange for a bank
account I will submit to bank that you are next of kin to Barry Kelly with your account details as to where the fund will be transferred as a distance relation. Send me the following:-
The name of your Bank you want us to use,
Address of your Bank,
Account number,
Account Beneficiary,
Swift code (if any)
After the successful transfer of this fund to your account, I will make arrangement to come to your country so that we can share the fund, Your share will be 30% while 10% is set aside for any expenses incurred during the course of this project both local and international, the rest of 60% will be for myself. Please this business is 100% risk free. Remember to send meyour
Phone and fax number.
My regards to you and your family. Reply direct to the bank through this secured email address:zenith_bankonline2@mail2world.com
