I have urgent and very confidential business proposition for you > Mr. Barry Kelly made a numbered time (Fixed) deposited for twelve > calendar months, valued at US$25,000,000.00 (Twenty-five Million > Dollars) in my branch. Upon maturity, I sent a routine notification to > his forwarding address but got no reply.

On further investigation, I found out that he did > not leave a WILL and all attempts to trace his next of kin were > fruitless. I therefore made further investigation and discovered that > Mr. Barry Kelly did not declare any next of kin in 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 > expiration of 6{Six} 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 > government officials. This is simple; > > 1) 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. > > 2) 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 for the transfer. > > 3) 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 of Mr. Barry Kelly. The money will be paid into your account for us > to share in the ratio of 75% for me and 20% for you then 5% will be set > aside for any expenses that may occur during the transfer process.
