Dear Sir, I am DR. MRS MARIAM ABACHA, wife of the late Nigeria Head of State, General Sanni Abacha who died on the 8th of June 1998 while still on active duty.
I am contacting you in view of the fact that we will be of great assistance to each other likeness developing a cordial relationship. I currently have the sum of Twenty four Million US Dollars (US$24,000,000.00) cash in a vault of a certain security company which l intend to use for investment, like Real Estate Development specifically in your country. This money came as a payback for the Failed Debt buy back contract deal between my late husband and some foreigners. I must inform you that the foreigners tried what they felt was good for the deal they had with my Late Husband and at the end of the present government says it was scam on our countries multi-billion debt to IMF, world bank and Paris Clubs. The Partners returned my husband's share of USD$24,000,000.00 after the death of my husband and lodged in my husband's security company of which l am director until now, the new Civilian Government have intensified their probe on my husband's finances and business empire. In view of these, l acted fast to withdraw the US$24,000,000.00 from the company's vault and deposited it in another West African Security Company in Accra-Ghana. . No record ever existed concerning the money traceable by the government because there is no documentation showing that we received the money from the foreign partners who did the business with abacha and the fund was paid cash, so it has no traces from the bank. Due to the current situation in the country concerning government attitude towards my family, it has become quite impossible for me to make use of this money within. Let me refer you to the front page of this day newspapers of 10th March 2001. You can log on to this various websites and get more details about my family, funds being recovered and how we are being subjected to different treatments to the name of searching for looted funds of my late husband.

The present government in Nigeria had frozen and seized all my bank accounts both here in Nigeria and abroad. Thus on your consent to proceed in the business l shall expect you to contact me urgently to enable us discuss in detail about this transaction. Bearing in mind that your assistance is needed to transfer this fund, l proposed a Percentage of 20% of the total sum to you for the expected service and assistance, 10% for offsetting expenses incurred in the course of this transaction.
