Hello!
I am Mr. Akilo Adams, Bank Manager of Diamond Bank Plc, Marina
Branch, Lagos . I have urgent and very confidential business
proposition for you. I got your contact from the world trade center
(W.T.C.) regional office in Lagos, Nigeria although the details of my
intention were not made known to them. In August 31st 1999, An American
oil consultant / contractor with the Nigerian National Petroleum
Corporation, Mr.RICHARD BROKAW made a numbered time (fixed) deposited for twelve calendar
valued at US$25,500,000.00 (Twenty Five Million five hundred thousand
Dollars) in my branch. Upon maturity, I sent a routine notification to
his forwarding address but got no reply.
After a month, we sent a reminder and finally we discovered from his
contact employers Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation that
Mr.Richard Brokaw died from an Plane Crash accident.For more
confirmation view this link :
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/world/americas/502503.stm
On further investigation, I found out that he did not leave a WILL and
all attempts to trace his next of kin were fruitless.
I therefore made further investigation and discovered that Mr.RICHARD
BROKAW did not declare any next of kin in all his official documents,
including his Bank Deposit paperwork. This sum of US$25,500,000.00 is still sitting in the Bank and the
interest is being rolled over with the principal sum at the end of each
year. No one will come forward to claim it. According to the Nigerian Law, at the expiration of 7 (seven) years,
the money will revert to the ownership of the Nigerian Government if
nobody applies to claim the funds.
Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as a foreigner to
stand in as the next of kin to Mr. Richard Brokaw so that the fruits of
this old man's labor will not get into the
hands of some corrupt government officials.
This is simple request: -
1. I will like you to provide me immediately with your full names and
address so that the attorney will prepare the necessary documents and
affidavits, which will put you in place as the next of kin.
2. We shall employ the services of two attorneys for drafting and
notarization of the WILL and obtain the necessary documents and letter
of probate /administration in your favour for the transfer.
3. A bank account in any part of the world, which you provide, will
then facilitate the transfer of this money to you as the beneficiary /
next of kin of Mr.RICHARD BROKAW.The money will be paid into your
account for us to share in the ratio which i will disclose you in due course.
However 10% from the total sum is mapped out is for expenses incurred
in this transaction. There is no risk at all the paper work for the attorney and my position
will do this transaction as the Branch Manager guarantees the
successful execution of this transaction. If you are interested, please
replyimmediately via the private email address below.
Upon your response, I shall then provide you with more details and
relevant documents that will help you understand.
Please observe utmost confidentiality, and rest assured that this
transaction would be most profitable for both of us because I shall
require your assistance to invest my share in your country,
Thanks and regards,
Mr.Akilo Adams.
