I am Mr. Gabriel Abunama (BARRISTER), A Client of mine (Engr Frank Arledge),a national of your country, who is a director in Bridges, Roads and Houses construction Company called (LANDPILLARS CO,NIG LTD)here in Nigeria.

On the Day of 27th january 2003,my client, his wife and their three children were involved in Ikeja bomb blast that claimed many lives here in my country. My client and his family unfortunately where among those lost their lives. Since then I have made several enquiries to your embassy to locate any of my clients extended relatives, Which has also proved unsuccessful. After these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to do some research in the Internet, to locate any member of his family. Hence I contacted you.

I have contacted you to assist me in repatriating the money and property left behind by my client before they get confiscated or declared unserviceable by the bank where these huge deposits were lodged.particularly, the (Access Bank of Nigeria Plc, Lagos Branch) where my client deposited us$9.2million dollars. The Bank has issued a notice to provide the next of kin or have the account confiscated within the next few days. Since I have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives for over 2 years now I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin to the deceased, so that the proceeds of this account valued at us$9.2million dollars can be transferred to your account there in your country, then you and I can share the money While part of it will be used for investment in your Country. I have all necessary legal documents that back up the claim.
All I require is your honest co- operation to enable us seeing this deal through.

I guarantee that this will be executed under legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law. Please indicate your readiness to assist me, So that all the information about this fund will be passed to you immediately.
