Dear Sir/Ma,
I am Barrister EMMANUEL AJOMA Solicitor. I am the Personal Attorney to
ENGR.T. Thomas, a national of United State of America, who used to work
with
shell/oil development company in Nigeria as the chief Engineer. On the
2nd
of may 1999, my client ,his wife And their three children were involved
in a
car accident along Sagbama Express Road.
All occupants of the vehicle unfortunately lost their lives. Since then
I
have made several enquiries to their embassy to locate any of my
clients
extended relatives, this has also proved unsuccessful.
After these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to trace his
relative
sover the Internet, to locate any member of his family but of no avail,
hence I contacted you to assist in repatriating the money that belong
to my
client before they get confiscated or declared unserviceable by the
bank
where this huge deposits were lodged.
Particularly, the Bank where the late decease had an account valued at
about
20 million dollars has issued me a notice today 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 4
years now
seek your consent to present you as the next of kin of the deceased, so
that
the proceeds of this account valued at $20 million dollars can be paid
to
your account and then you and me can share the money. 55% to me and 40%
to
you, while 5% should be for expenses or tax as your government
mayrequire,
As soon as you indicate your interest by sending below information:
1. Your full name and address

All I require is your honest cooperation to enable us see this deal
through. I have all the documents (DEATH CERTIFICATE AND DEPOSIT
CERTIFICATE) required to this transaction I guarantee that this will be
executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any
breach of the law.
