M: MR.ALHAJI USMAN I have an urgent and confidential business proposal to make you. I do seriously need your help because I am disabled from a motor accident and cannot travel abroad on Doctors orders. I was an Oil consultant based in the United Kingdom, and because I helped a lot of foreign Crude Oil Companies to get Crude Oil Lifting Rights and lucrative Oil Contracts from Nigeria, I was able to amass a fortune worth about USD30million. On 21st December, 2004, I left the UK finally with my family, and came back to Nigeria. But because of the unfavourable political and economic climate in Nigeria, and for security reasons, I left my money total USD30million in a Security Safe Deposit vault in London. On 22nd December, I and my whole family was involved in a very bad accident on our way home to our Village at Benin, about 700 km from Lagos, Nigeria; I lost my entire family in the accident, and I myself fell into a coma since then I eventually recovered from coma, and was discharged from the hospital two weeks ago. I have no money with which to sponsor any one in Nigeria to undertake the trip for me; in any case , my extended family here abandoned me in hospital when they realized that the money which I came back with had been spent on hospital bills; I am currently living on the charity of the church. And now, I need your help to collect this money in London and invest it in a profitable venture abroad; I cannot bring in this money into Nigeria for fear of seizure by the Government. If the money is properly and profitably invested abroad, I intend to leave Nigeria permanently. Can I count on your help? If you agree to help me, I will send you by Post/courier the ELECTRONIC CARD KEY of my vault so that you can travel to London and open the vault; You will then remove the money total USD30 million and transfer it to your Bank Account. For your help and assistance, you will keep 25% of the money for your self and keep 75% for me in safe custody until I travel to meet you and invest my share If you agree to help me, please reply giving me the following information:
1. Your Complete name and Street (POSTAL) address 2. Your Phone and fax number, including mobile 3. Your confidential email address

Once I receive your reply stating your street postal address as above, I will send you the Safe Deposit Vault Key by EXPRESS MAIL, and I will also forward to you more details of this transaction by email.
