FROM DR. PATRICK OBI.
Dear Friend.
It is indeed my pleasure to write you this letter, which I believe will be a surprise to you as we
have never met before, and I am deeply sorry if I have in any manner disturbed your privacy. Please
forgive this unusual manner of contacting you, but this particular letter is of exceptional and
very private nature. There is absolutely going to be a great doubt and distrust in your heart in
respect of this email, coupled with the fact that, so many individuals have taken possession of the
Internet to facilitate their nefarious deeds, thereby making it extremely difficult for genuine and
legitimate business class persons to get attention and recognition. There is no way for me to know
whether I will be properly understood, but it is my duty to write and reach out to you.
I am Dr. Patrick Obi, an accountant with OCEANIC BANK INTERNATIONAL PLC. The business I am about to
introduce you is base don sheer trust and with a Sense of purpose. I am contacting you to assist in
repatriating the sum of $20.5M U.S dollars. The money and property left behind by Engr. Harold
Bowen who had an accident On the 21st of April 2000, Engr. Harold Bowen, his wife and their two
Children were involved in a car accident in a remote village called Kuru near Jos in Plateau State.
All occupants of the car Unfortunately lost their lives. Since then I have made several enquiries
to his embassy here in Lagos-Nigeria to locate any of Harold Bowen Extended relatives, this has
also proved unsuccessful to locate any member of his family hence I contacted you as his account
officer to work with you before they get confiscated, frozen or declared unserviceable by the bank
where these huge deposits were lodged. Particularly, the OCEANIC BANK INTERNATIONAL PLC, where the
deceased had an
account valued at about (US$20.5M) Twenty Milliom Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars.
Now the management has issued a notice to provide the next of kin or
have the account frozen. Since I have been unsuccessful in locating the
relatives for over 2 years now, I seek your consent to present you as
the next of kin to the deceased since you are a foreigner so that the
proceeds of this account valued at $20.5M, can be paid to you and then you and I can share the
money. 60% to me and 35% to you, while 5% will be mapped out for any miscellaneous expenses that
might be incurs in the cause of this transaction.
