Courtesy of Business opportunity, I take liberty anchored on strong desire to solicit for your assistance on this mutual beneficial and risk free transaction with you, which I hope you give urgent attention. To be precise, I am Mr. James Khumalo the Manager of Bills/Exchange at the Foreign Exchange/Remittance Department of NEDBANK South Africa. In my department, we discovered an abandoned sum of US$13,000,000.00 (Thirteen Million United States Dollars) in an account that belongs to one of our customers who died along with his entire family in 1988 Lockerbie Pan American Airline plane crash.
Since we got information about his death, we have been expecting his next of Kin to come over and claim his money, because we can not release it unless somebody applied for its next of Kin or Relation to the deceased as indicated in our banking procedure, but unfortunately to no avail, and nobody has come forward to claim the money (because the mentioned next of kin and his Son died as well).
Therefore, upon this discovery I and other two officials in my department now decide to establish a cordial business relationship with you, hence my contacting you. We want you to purportedly present your good self as the next of Kin or relation of the deceased so that we can prepare documentations and release the funds (US$13 Million) into your account for safety and subsequent disbursement since nobody is coming for it and again we do not want the funds to go into the Governments account as "Unclaimed Bill".
The banking law and procedures herein stipulates that any account abandoned or dormant for a period of some years is subjected to be closed and all money contained therein will be forfeited to the Government Treasury Account. Now it is being speculated that the above sum will be transferred into Government Treasury Account as unclaimed funds on or before October 2005. The reason for you to present your good self as the next of kin in occasioned by the fact that the deceased customer was a foreigner.
Mode of sharing after the successful completion of the transfer is as follows, for the role you will be expected to play in the whole exercise, we have agreed to give you twenty five (25%) of the total sum, and 5% has been set aside for expenses we are going to encounter by both parties in the process of this transaction and the remaining 70% shall be for my colleagues and I. In support of the aforementioned, you are urged to reply this letter indicating your readiness and interest to participate in the business. After you reply, you will be advised on the next step forward.
I quite believe that you will protect our interest by keeping this business Top Secret and Confidential, as your interest will be equally protected in order to achieve and maintain maximum confidentiality. Trust to hear from you on the above email: [email protected] as I count on your earliest response.
Yours truly,
Mr. James Khumalo

Dear Hamilton ,
I am Steve Kadmon, An Attorney at Law in the FEDERALRepublic of NIGERIA. I am the personal Attorney to MR S. Hamilton, a stockBroker who also deals on comodities [petroleum products and solid minerals],whom I believe is a National of your country.
This client of mine died on september 11th TerroristAttack on WORLD TRADE CENTER in UNITED STATES.
He died on a secondary cause of the Terrorist Attackon the WTC when a Car conveying him and his wife crashed into a stationaryTruck at the premises of the WTC in the ensuing confusion. The Truckactually belonged to the Fire Service Authorities of the USA and since then I havebeen in a legal tussle with the Authority to include the names of my clientand his wife into the list of the Attack Victims but this has not workedyet. Before he died, my client has the sum of US$10.440,000.00 (Ten Million,Four hundred and Fourty Thousand US Dollars) in his account with GLOBAL BANKPLC.Since then I have made several inquiris to locate any of his extendedRelatives but this has proved unsuccessful. After these severalunsuccessful attempts, I decided to track his last name over the Internet, to locate anymember of his family. This has also not paid-off.
I therefore, decided to contact you to assist in claiming of the money leftbehind by my client as his next-of-kin since you have the same last name asmy client.His Account will be declared"unserviceable" by the Bank if themoney remains unclaimed by his relations after a reasonable time and thiswill mean a total loss. I therefore, seek your consent to present you as thenext of kin to the deceased so that the money US$10.440m will be paid to you then I and you will share the money. Note that all neccesary legal documents will be in place to back up the claims. All I require is your honest cooperation to enable us see this deal through. I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law.Once I have your consent and trust,I will immediately raise all necesary documents and instruct the bank to move the money on your name to the account number you may choose.
Anticipating your urgent response.Thanks and God bless,Barr.Steve KadmonMR.PETER OKOCHAAccount OFFICIAL OF INTER-CONTINENTAL BANK OF NIGERIA PLC.Email; [email protected]
Dear Hamilton,
My name is MR.PETER OKOCHA I work in the credit and accounts department of Inter-continental Bank of Nigeria Plc,Lagos, Nigeria. I write you in respect of a foreign customer with our bank, before his sudden death.
His name is Mr.MARK HAMILTON, He was among those who died in a plane crash here in Nigeria in the year 2002 May 4th. Sir,since the demise of this our customer, Mr.MARK HAMILTON who was an oil erchant/contractor, I have kept a close watch of the deposit records and accounts and since then no body has come to claim the money in this a/c as next of kin to the late Engineer.
He had only $9.5mllion in his a/c and the a/c is coded. It is only an insider that could produce the code or password of the Deposit particulars.
As it stands now, there is nobody in that position to produce the needed information other than my very self considering my position in the bank as his account officer.Based on the reason that nobody has come forward to claim the deposit as next of kin,I hereby ask for your cooperation in using your name as the next of kin to the deceased to send these funds out to a foreign offshore bank a/c for mutual sharing between myself and you. At this point I am the only one with the information because I have removed the deposit file from the safe.
By this doing,what is required of you is to send anapplication laying claims of the deposit as next of kin to the deceased officially to the director of our bank.
I will need your full name and address,telephone and fax number for the processing of the transfer in your name and favour. Finally i want you to understand that the request for a foreigneras the next of kin is Occassioned by the fact that the customer was a foreigner and for that reason alone a Nigerian cannot represent as next of kin. When you contact me,then we shall discuss on how the money will be split between us.
I will direct you on how to apply for the claims of this money. Please if you are interested and capable to carry out this deal with me, reply through this -mail([email protected])
Trusting to hear from you,I remain Respectfully yours,MR.PETER OKOCHA
PLS REPLY BACK TO [email protected]PLS REPLY BACK TO [email protected]
