Dear SIR/MADAM,
I presumed that all is well with you and your family. Please let this do not be a
surprise proposal to you because i got your contact information from the international
directory in few weeks ago before i decided to contact you on this magintude and
lucrative transaction for our future survival in life. Moreover, i have laid all the
solemn trust on you before i decided to disclose this successful & confidential
transaction to you.
My name is Ms Rose Kingsley, I am a banker with one of the banks in Lagos Nigeria. I have
urgent and very confidential business proposition for you. On June 7 2007, a Zimbabwean
farmer/businessman made a numbered time(Fixed) deposited for twelve calendar months,
valued at $9,320,000.00 (Nine million,three hundred and twenty thousand united states
dollars) in my branch. Upon maturity, I sent a routine notification to his forwarding
address but got no reply. After a month,i sent a reminder and finally we discovered from
his co-farmer who previously had a joint account with him in my bank that he died in the
land crisis in Zimbabwe. 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 he did not declare any next of kin in all his official
documents, including his Bank Deposit paperwork.
This sum of US$9,320,000.00 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 5 (five) years, the money will revert
to the ownership of the Nigerian Government{STATE} if nobody applies to claim the funds.
Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as a foreigner to stand in as his next
of kin so that the fruits of this old man's labor will not get into the hands of some
corrupt officials. I will intimate you with the requirements that the attorney will need
to prepare the necessary documents and affidavits, which will put you in place as the next
of kin upon your positive response.
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 favor for
the transfer. 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. The money
will be paid into your account for us to share in the ratio of 60% for me and 40% for you,
There is no risk at all as all the paperwork for this transaction will be arranged and my
position as the Regional manager guarantees the successful execution of this transaction.
Upon your positive response,i shall let you know who i am,the name of my bank and the name
of the deceased.I will also provide you with more details and relevant documents that will
put you in a clearer picture of this pending transaction.
Please observe utmost confidentiality, and be 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.
Yours faithfully.
Ms. Rose Kingsley
