Union bank of africa,
Lagos Nigeria


I am the head of acccounting dept.of union of Bank of Africa,Lagos
Nigeria. I am writing following the impressive
information about you through one of my friend
who run a consultancy firm. He assured of your
capability and reliability, although
I did not tell him the details of the business I want
to do with you.
In my Bank I discovered an abandoned sum of
10.5million pounds in an account that belongs to one
of our foreign customers who died along side with his
entire family in November 1997 in a 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 cannot release it unless
somebody applies for it as next of kin or relation to
the deceased as indicated in our banking guidelines.

Unfortunately I learn that all his supposed next of
kin or relations died along with him at the plane
crash leaving nobody with the knowledge of this fund
behind for the claim. It therefore upon discover that
I in the department now decided to make business with
you and release the
money to you as the next of kin or relation of the
deceased for safety keeping and subsequent
disbursement since nobody is coming for it and we
dont want this money to go back into Federal
Government account as unclaimed bill.
The banking law and guidelines here stipulates that
such money remained after four years the money will
be transferred into banking treasury as unclaimed
fundThe request of a foreigneras next of kin in this
business is occasioned by the fact that the customer
was a foreigner and a Nigerian cannot stand as next
of kin to a foreigner. We agreed that 35%
(negotiable) of this money will be for you as foreign
partner. Thereafter me and my two colleagues will
visit your country for the disbursement according to
the percentages indicated. Please be honest to me.

Therefore to enable the immediate transfer of the fund
to you as arranged you must apply first to the bank
as next of kin of the deceased.
Upon your reply, I will send you a text application,
which you will fill and fax to the bank, upon receipt
of the fax in the bank, I will look for a reliable
lawyer for you, since you know that I am working with
the bank and I must not be seen making claim for you.
He will be in charge of your claim and you will not
inform him about him, bit I will still be guiding you
on the way forward.

Note that this transaction is confidential and risk
free. As soon as you receive this mail you should
contract me through
my e-mail address
Best Regards.

Dr. Yusuf
