Subject: Can i trust you?
Dear Friend,
Compliment of the season. I may have to trouble your sense of personal achievement and reward for an opportunity properly taken advantage of. I work for UNION BANK, Nigeria. I wish to know if we can work together. I would like you to stand as the Next Of Kin to my deceased client. He had a fixed time deposit with my Bank which has matured and remains unclaimed till now. It runs into the value of Fifteen million Euro(15 Million Euro).
Please visit this site for confirmation:

I knew him so well since he was one of my most performing accounts. However the account opening package of my deceased client does not contain any next of kin and neither has it been possible to trace any his relative. And experience in the banking industry reveals that such monies remain recycling in the monies of the bank until finally they may be dissipated as unclaimed funds. A colleague of mine who works in the Legal Department, and particularly in the Inheritance Unit has agreed with me that I clandestinely look for a foreigner like you that can assist us to have the money legally claimed and moved out of our bank for our joint purpose. We are in house members and have put in place effective measure to ensure that this works out smoothly. This is simple and will be done at our end. Assurances are given you to this effect, we have our job to protect and cannot afford to fail. When you have safely secured same and moved the money to your given account. Your share shall
be 30% while we shall take home 35% each. Kindly take note of this to avoid any future dispute on how to distribute the facility among us. If you are capable of putting your time and efforts towards the actualization of this, kindly reach me and let us work together to get this achieved.
Please have every second thought and be sure if you are interested before you contact me, don’t just contact me because of the amount involved but please only do so if you know you are genuinely interested and will give it the required commitment for the good of us all. Please reply to my private e-mail: infojohnson57@gmail.com
Have a very wonderful day.
Sulaiman Johnson.
