Dear Friend,
I am an Accountant with United Bank of Africa plc {UBA}; my name is Mrs.
B.A.Rosemary, I am the
personal Account Manager to Engineer Anderson,who used to work with SHELL
PETROLEUM DEVELOPMENT COMPANY (SPDC) in Nigeria.
Here and after shall be referred to as my client.
On 21 April 2003, my client, his wife, and their three children were
involved in a car accident along Sagamu expressway. All occupants of the
vehicle unfortunately lost their lives. Since then I have made several
inquiries to embassy to locate any of my clients extended
Relatives, this has also proved unsuccessful. After these several
unsuccessful
attempts, I decided to locate any member of his family hence I contacted
you. I have contacted you
to assist in repatriating the money and property left behind by my
client before they get confiscated or declared serviceable by the bank
where these huge deposits were lodged, particularly the United Bank of
Africa plc, where
the deceased had an account valued at about ($8,472,000 Million US
Dollars). The bank has issued me a notice to provide the next of kin, or
have
the account confiscated within the next twenty official working days.
Since I have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives for over 4years
now, I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin of the
deceased so that the proceeds of
this account valued at ($8,472, 000 Million U S Dollars) can be paid to
you and then, you and I can share the money; 40% to me and 40% to you,
15% to orphanage/motherless homes, the remaining 5% Percent will be for
the expenses that will be required for any cost.
An attorney will be contacted to help us revalidat all
the necessary legal documents that can be used to back up any claim
we may make. All I require is your honest co-operation to enable us
seeing this deal through. I guarantee that this will be executed under a
legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law.
If this business proposition offends your moral and ethical valves, feel
free to decline
this proposal. Please contact me at once at
Email: b.a.rosemary@gmail.com. if you are interested.
Warm Regards,
Mrs B.A.ROSEMAY,
UBA PLC.
