Zenith Bank

Zenith Bank was referenced in unsolicited emails that appear to be fraudulent or bogus.   Zenith Bank is almost certainly not involved nor likely to approve the use of its name in the e-mails.  Scammers often use the names of legitimate banks, companies and organizations to make their claims seem legitimate. This site contains a large collection of fraud and bogus emails that attempt to scam the recipient into sending money for non-existent fortunes, inheritances, cases of money, business partnerships, lottery winnings, etc.  If you get an e-mail that is similar to one in our collection, you should delete it.  Do not give out personal information such as bank account information or your social security number.  NEVER pay any fees of any kind.   If you are victimized by the fraud, there is not much that you can do.

Dear Friend,

I am Jimm Olvia, Bank Manager of ZENITH BANK OF NIGERIA, Lagos Branch. I have urgent and very confidential business proposition for you. On June 6 2003, an American oil consultant/contractor with the Nigerian NationalPetroleum Corporation, Mr. Barry Kelly made a numbered time (Fixed) deposited for twelve calendar months, valued at (TWENTY FIVE Million United States Dollars) 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, Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation that Mr. Barry Kelly died from an automobile accident. On furtherinvestigation, I found out that he did not leave a WILL and all attempts to trace his next of kin were fruitless.

I therefore made furtherinvestigation and discovered that Mr. Barry Kelly did not declare any next of kin n all his official documents, including his Bank Deposit paperwork. This sum of US$25,000,000.00 is still sitting in the Bank and the interest is being rolled over with the principal sum at the end of each year. No one will come forward to claim it. According to the Nigerian Law, at the expirati! on of 5 (five) years, the money will revert to the ownership of the Nigerian Government if nobody applies to claim the funds.

Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as a foreigner to stand in as the next of kin to Mr. Barry Kelly so that the fruits of this old man's labor will not get into the hands of some corrupt officials. This is simple I will like you to provide me immediately with your full names and address so that the attorney will prepare the necessary documents and affidavits, which will put you in place as the next of kin. We shall employ the services of two attorneys for drafting and notarization of the WILL and obtain the necessary documents and letter of probate/administration in your favor the transfer.

A bank account in any part of the world,which you provide, will then facilitate the transfer of this money to you as the beneficiary/next of kin. The money will be paid into your account for us to share in the ratio of 60% for me and 40% for you. 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. If you are interested, please reply immediately via email. Upon your response, I shall then provide you with more details and relevant documents that will help you understand. Please observe utmost confidentiality, and rest assured that this transaction would be most profitable for both of us because I shall require your assistance to invest my share in your country. Awaiting your urgent reply via email: jimmoliver66@yahoo.com

Best regards,

jimm oliver
