REQUEST FOR AN ASSISTANCE IN FULFILLING A BUSINESS TRANSACTION
Attn: Sir/Madam
Following my previous research, This is to inform you that I have a proposal
for you as regards the current development of my deceased client who bears
the name of Mr.Mark Andrews, a native of your country and was my
trusted,wealthy client whom died in the January 27th Bomb blast here in my
country.
In introduction, my name is Barrister Martin Barty, a legal attorney with
great vision. I am the private and most trusted attorney to the deceased. My
client was a very wealthy business tycoon formerly working with the Nigeria
airways for over 20 years till this date before his sudden death in the
January 27th 2002 Bomb blast that rocked his residence in Steven Toba
street, G.R.A Ikeja here in my country.
Details of this incident can be viewed at the BBC web page below to know the
reality of this matter that I have contacted you for.
On Sunday, 27th of January 2002, my client, his wife {Lady Anna and their
three children{Elizabeth, Dexter and James} were involved in a terrible bomb
blast that took live of innocent souls and unfortunately over 1000 people
lost their lives. My client and his family were unfortunate victims of this
incident. Kindly view the web pages below for more information related to

Frankly and authoritatively speaking, I wish to let you understand that my
client left over Twenty Eight Million Five hundred thousand{USD 28.5M}
United States of America Dollars here in the Access bank of Nigeria Plc
which is the typical reason I contact you as I believe that we both can act
like two matured adult in coming to the actualization of this Transaction
for the betterment of us and family.
Be rest assured that as you comply to my directives,this transaction will be
executed in a legitimate arrangement that will prevent you and I from any
breach of law in your country as it would be fully backed with official
documentation endorsed by the supreme court of Nigeria to legalize the claim
of this transaction.
Kindly note also, I have made all attempts to locate any of my client's
relative but all attempts have proved unsuccessful that is why I am counting
on the fact that you and I need you to give me a good courage faith that we
can work as two partners in progress in coming to the realization of this
transaction for the betterment of us and family.
Finally, all I need from you is your honest cooperation as this transaction
is not related to an hoax Imagination or Internet Scam but pure and for
real. I crave your indulgence to present you as the surviving next of kin to
the deceased so that we can reap from the fruit of this old man labor before
some group of bad and corrupt leaders in my country get rid of this money
and share it for their own selfish interest instead of the both of us
sharing it for the betterment of us and family.
I am awaiting your expedient response with some encouraging news!!!!!That
you are ready to work hand to hand with me. please also give me your
telephone number so that we could discuss further.
Kindly have inquires and response sent to barr_martinbarty@live.com
