FROM THE DESK OF: MR.LEONARD OKOBI
NIGERIA NATIONAL BANK.
LAGOS RD.BRANCH
LAGOS STATE, NIGERIA

Dear friend,
I am Mr. leonard okobi, credit officer of Nigerian national bank international. I have a confidential business proposition for you.On June 6, 1999, an australian Oil consultant contractor with thePortuguese Solid Minerals Corporation, Mr. Alan Smith made anumbered time (Fixed) Deposit for twelve calendar months, valued atUS$8,000,000.00 (eight Million Dollars only) in my branch. Uponmaturity, I sent a routine notification to his forwarding address butgot no reply. After a month, we sent a reminder and finally wediscovered from his contract employers, the Portuguese Solid MineralsCorporation that Mr. Alan Smith died in an automobile accident.

On further investigation, I found out that he died without making aWILL and all attempts to trace his next of kin were fruitless.I therefore made further investigation and discovered that Mr. Alan Smith did not declare any kin or relations in all his officialdocuments, including his Bank Deposit paperwork in my Bank. This sumof US$8,000,000.00 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 of country's government, at the expiration of 6(six) years, the money will revertto the ownership of the Government if nobody applies to claim the fund.

Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as a foreigner tostand in as the next of kin to Mr. Alan smith so that the fruitsof this old man's labour will not get into the hands of some corruptgovernment officials. This is simple, I will like you to provideimmediately your full names and address so that the attorney will prepare the necessary documents and affidavits that will put you inplace as the next of kin.We shall employ the services of an attorney for drafting and notarization of probate/administration in your favor for the transfer. A bank account in any part of the world that you will provide willthen facilitate the transfer of this money to you as thebeneficiary/next of kin.

The money will be paid into your account for us to share in the ratioof 65% for me and 30% for you and 5% for expenses incurred in thecourse 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. Ifyou are interested, please reply immediately to my alternative email address (leonard_okobi002@yahoo.co.in) Upon your response, I shall then provide you with more details and relevant documents that will help you understand the transaction.You should observe utmost confidentiality, and be 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.

Thanks and regards.
Leonard okobi
