ATT:

I am a staff of bank in Africa. I will give you the name of my bank and
other
important information if I receive a positive reply from you. For
security
reasons I cannot disclose my full identity to you now until I am sure
of your
cooperation. I work in the operations dept where I serve as account
officer to
numerous customers. One of the customers whom I worked as his account
officer
was a wealthy diamond merchant from neighboring Sierra Leone. He lost
his
family in the war. He was lucky to escape alive and came to this
country with
his wealth intact. Unfortunately he died last year.

Because this man was good to me when he was alive, I took it upon
myself to
travel to his country last month, to see if I could locate any of his
close
relations . On reaching there I discovered that his only surviving
uncle died
a few months back. I sponsored this trip on my own and nobody in the
bank knew
I was undertaking the journey so I did not present any official report
of my
findings in Nigeria.

Now there are two things I could do with regards to the dead mans
money. First,
as his accounts officer, I could formally notify the bank authorities
that the
man is dead and has no next of kin. In this case the money would be
forfeited
to the government after some time. As a matter of fact this is the
proper thing
I am supposed to do.

Another thing I can do is to arrange for someone else, a foreigner, to
act as
the next of kin of the late man so that he will claim the money. This
is the
option that I can do to help anybody and myself since the money
actually is public fund due to the fact that my friend was a close ally to the

late brutal military president that looted government treasury and that
is why I have chosen to do it. I want you to be
my partner. All you would have to do is act as the next of kin of the
dead man
and the whole money in the account will be transferred to your account.
As the
accounts officer to the late man, I have all the necessary documents
that you
will require to claim the money in the account.

The total money in the account is USD17 million. Your share will be 30%
which
is USD5,100,000. My own share will be 69%, which is USD11,730,000. We
shall
keep 1% which is USD170,000 for expenses.

Reach me immediately by mail so that I can give you further
details.Also provide me you with direct tel/fax to reach you.

Yours truly,
Francis
