I am Mr. Roland Chike, in the Auditing and Accounting Unit, Foreign operations Department Union Bank of Nig, PLC #36 Marina Lagos Island and I have an urgent and confidential transaction which you might be interested in;On April 14th, 2004 precisely, Engr.Steve Moore made a (fixed) depositof US$15.500.000.00(Fifteen Million Five Hundred Thousand US Dollars)in my branch. On maturity up till now he never came back for it, and finally we discovered from his contract employee Empire Construction Corporation (ECC) that Late Engr.Steve Moore died in an automobile accident. On further investigations it was clear that he died without making a will. All attempts by the Australian to trace his next of kin were fruitless. According to Nigerian banking law, after five years,the m!
oney will be reverted into the account of the Nigerian Government. That is, if the account owner is certified death and nobody comes forward to claim it. I therefore, solemnly request to present you as the next of kin/ beneficiary of this whole sum. This is very simple and will be done legally. I am using my position and connections in the bank here to do the entire document work for the transfer of this fund into your bank account. We shall also employ the services of a reputable attorney/lawyer who will obtain all necessary documents and letter ofadministration in your favor for this transfer. This transaction is100%risk free guaranteed.As you reply, I will like you to furnish me with the following informations: (1)Your full name and contact address,(2)Your full address and telephone number,(3)Your date of birth and occupation.This information will enable me prepare the necessary documents in yourfavour as might be required by the bank. Finally, give me your words that yo!
u will be faithful to me in this transaction to keep this proposition
in absolute confidentiality and trust then, we can work out the details. I am just doing this to save the life of my cancer dying Dad and also this will make great changes to our lives positively and can as well land me into a big trouble if agreat care is not taking. The money will be shared in the ratio of 60% and 40% that is for me and you respectively.I await your urgent reply.Mr. Roland Chike.
