Heh. I've never been contacted by instant messenger. That would be fun. Just give them some government officials name, address, and e-mail and see if they are stupid enough to contact them.

Unfortunately they All lost their lives in the event of the accident, Since then I have made several enquiries to your Embassy to locate any of my clients extended relatives, this has also proved unsuccessful. After these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to trace his relatives over the Internet to locate any member of his family but of no avail, hence I contacted you. I contacted you to assist in repatriating the money and property left behind by my client before they get confiscated or declared unserviceable by the bank where this huge deposits were lodged. Particularly, the Bank where the deceased had an account valued at about $9million U.S dollars (Nine Million dollars). Consequently, the bank issued me a notice to provide the next of kin or have the account confiscated within the next ten official working days. Since I have been unsuccessfully in locating the relatives for over 2 years now. I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin of the deceased since you are from the same country so that the proceeds of this account valued at $9million U.S dollars can be paid to you and then you and me can share the money. 55% to me and 40% to you, while 5% should be for expenses or tax as your government may require.

FROM THE DESK OF:
MR.MICHAEL OBONG.
GULF BANK OF NIGERIA.
36,NEW MARKET ROAD,
ONITSHA ,
ANAMBRA STATE
NIGERIA.

Dear Friend,

I am Mr.Michael Obong credit officer of Gulf Bank of Nigeria Plc Onitsha Branch. I have an urgent and very confidential business proposition for you.

On June 6, 1999, a Canadian Oil consultant/contractor with the Exxon-Mobil Oil of Nigerian Corporation, Mr.Peter Boulter made a numbered time (Fixed) Deposit for twelve calendar months, valued at US$18,250,000.00 (Eighteen Million, Two
Hundred and Fifty Thousand Dollars only) 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 Exxon Mobil Co that Mr.Peter Boulter died from an Boat Mishap in the Niger Delta. 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 Mr.Peter Boulter did not declare any kin or relations in all his official documents, including his Bank Deposit paperwork in my Bank. This sum of US$18,250,000.00 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 will ever come forward to claim it. According to Laws here in Nigeria, at the expiration of 5 (five) years, the moneywill revert to the ownership of the Nigerian Government if nobody applies to
claim the fund.

Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as a foreigner to stand in as the next of kin to .Mr.Peter Boulter so that the fruits of this old man's labor will not get into the hands of some corrupt government officials.This is simple, I will like you to provide immediately your full names and address so that the
attorney will prepare the necessary documents and affidavits that will put you in place as the next of kin. We shall employ the services of an attorney for drafting and notarization of the WILL and to obtain the necessary documents and letter of probate/administration in your favor for the transfer. A bank
account in any part of the world that you will 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 70% for me and 25% for you and 5% for Expenses Incurred in the course of the transaction .There is no risk at all as all the paperwork for this transaction will be done by the attorney and with my position as the credit officer guarantees the
successful execution of this transaction. If you are interested, please reply immediately to my email box.

Upon your response, I shall then provide you with more details and relevant documents that will help you understand the transaction. Please send me your confidential telephone and fax numbers for easy communication.

You should 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. Please if you are interested please contact me at this e mail : [email protected]

Awaiting your urgent reply.

Thanks and regards.

Mr.Michael Obong.
