April 1999, my client, his wife and their three children were involved in
a car accident along Sagbama Express Road that claims the lives of all
occupants of the vehicle.It was a very sad news and Since then I have
made several enquiries to your embassy to locate any of my clients
extended relatives which proves unsuccessful.After these several
unsuccessful attempts I, decided to trace his relatives over the Internet, to
locate any member of his family but of no avail, hence I contacted you.I
ave contacted you on trust to assist me in receiving the money left
behind by my client before the bank he has an account with get money
confisicated or declared his money as unclaimed fund following the bank
policy.
articularly, the Bank where the deceased had an account valu!ed at
about ($25.5 MILLION UNITED STATES DOLLARS)has issued me a notice to
provide the next of kin of my client or have the account confisicated within
the next ten official working days.
Since i have been unsuccesfull in locating the the relatives for over 2
years now I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin of the
deceased since you are bearing or having the same surname with my late
client so that the proceeds of the transfer of this money aluedat($25.5

for our mutual benefit.The sharing percentage is as follow if only you
will be faithfull and honest to assist me, 40% for your assistance as

your government may require.All necessary legal documents that will back
up your claim of this money will be secured by an attorney on your
