Dear Friend,

Compliments to you. I am Chief Henry Madu, Bank Manager of Union Bank Nigeria PLc Lagos Apapa Branch. I have urgent and very confidential business proposition for you.

On June 6, 1999, an Oil Consultant/ Contractor with the National Oil Nigeria LTD, Mr. James Metzler, made a numbered time (Fixed) Deposit for twelve calendar months, valued at thirty two Million six hundred thousand US Dollars only (US$32,600,000.00) in my branch. Upon maturity, I sent a routine notification to his forwarding address but got no reply. After a month, we sent a reminder and finally we discovered from his contract employers, the National Oil Nigeria LTD that Mr. James died from an automobile crash. On further investigation, I found out that he died without making a "WILL” and all attempts to trace his next of kin was fruitless.

I therefore made further investigation and discovered that the next of kin Mr. James are his only son and the wife and unfortunately both of them died with him and none of his relations were stated in all his official documents, including his Bank Deposit paperwork in my Bank. This sum of thirty two Million six hundred thousand US Dollars S$32,600,000.00) only is still sitting in my Bank and the interest is being rolled over with the principal sum at the end of each year. No one has ever come forward to claim the money till now. Going by the Nigerian Law, at the expiration of nine(9years) years, the money will revert to the ownership of the bank if nobody applies to claim the fund.

Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you to act as the next of kin to Mr. James so that the fruits of this old man's labour will not end up in the banks treasury. This is simple; we will employ the service of an Attorney for drafting and notarization of the "WILL" and to obtain all necessary documents and letter of probate/administration in your favour from the Lagos high court to legalize it for transfer on your behalf as the beneficiary/next of kin.

Hence the money is transferred in to your account I will come over for the sharing as will be agreed upon in your acceptance to do this deal with me. There is no risk at all, as all the paperwork for this transaction will be done by the Attorney and my position as the Branch Manager guarantees the successful execution of this transaction. Upon your response, I shall then provide you with more details and relevant documents that will help us carry out this deal successfully.

Please observe utmost confidentiality, and be rest assured that this transaction would be most profitable to both of us because I shall require your assistance to invest my share in your country as of the moment.

Awaiting your urgent reply.

Thanks and God bless. Chief Henry Madu.
