RE: TRANSFER OF ($48,223,000.00 USD FORTY EIGHT MILLION TWO HUNDRED AND TWENTY THREE THOUSAND DOLLARS) INTO YOUR ACCOUNT.

I feel quite safe dealing with you in this important business. Though,this medium (Internet) has been greatly abused, I choose to reach you through it because it still remains the fastest medium of communication.However, this correspondence is unofficial and private, and it should be treated as such.

At first I will like to assure you that this transaction is 100% risk and trouble free to both parties.

My name is MR. JOHN PHILIPS,I work as the personnel manager in account management section in charge of credit and foreign bills of one of the prime banks here in Nigeria. On a routine inspection I discovered a dormant domiciliary account with a Balance Of $48,223,000. 00 (Forty eight million two hundred and twenty three thousand U.S dollar). On further discreet investigation, I also discovered that the account holder has died long ago with his family on a plane crash leaving no beneficiary to the account and no other person knows about this account.

I am in close contact with the manager of the bank here who is my partner and he is willing to approve the transfer to any reliable and trustworthy foreigner with foreign bank account because the former operator of the a/c is a foreigner and from Germany in particular. I am certainly sure that he has no written or oral WILL attached to the account, no beneficiary and nobody will come again for the claim of this money. It is only a foreigner who can claim this money with legal claims to the account holder, which I will provide to you if you are interested, therefore I need your cooperation in this transaction. The difference in country of origins is not a hindrance to the success of this transaction. This money will remain useless in this dormant account if I did not transfer the fund out to a foreign account.

I will provide the necessary information and documents needed in order to claim this money. I only need your cooperation as a foreigner to provide your safe bank account information for the transfer. All arrangement that will ensure a smooth transfer of the fund to the account, which you are to nominate, is already in place. You should also provide me with your direct phone lines for easy communication. I wish for utmost confidentiality in handling this transaction.

At the conclusion of this transaction, your share will be 30% of the total transfer sum, 60% for my partner and me while 10% will be set aside for any expenses both parties might incure during the process of the transfer. The fund will be transferred to your account in two parts. I will first transfer $20USD Million to your account. I will fly over to meet you after the successful transfer for sharing according to the agreed percentages.I will have the remaining balance of USD28, 223 Million transferred to your account only after the successful sharing of the first transfer without any disappointment from your side.

Let me hear from you URGENTLY.

Best Regards,

MR. JOHN PHILIPS

Dear

I received your mail. It is my wish to conclude this business with you in full trust and confidence and to establish a strong long lasting business relationship with you but my only worry is the security and safety of the fund once transferred to your account.

As for now, we do not need your money to finance this venture as My colleagues and I contributed some cash to finance this project but if along the line the cash got finish and there is any need for any payment we will not fail to ask for your help/assistance which we will pay you back with an interest.

We are in urgent need of your assistance in a pending business transaction which requires immediate execution under strict confidentiality.

You should trust me with all your heart the way I reposed my full confidence in you and your family. You need to understand the procedures of inheritance as it is the same process all over the world.So it not a question of paying money before or after, it is a question of obtaining the right, correct legal documents to process inheritance forms and secure Approvals together with Original Letter of Administration from the Probate Registry under the Ministry of Justice.

You should bear in mind that this man who died, did not leave any WILL behind in your name, and like in every other place,Letter Of Administration is always used to substitute WILL if somebody dies INTERSTATE and there is always a fee for processing of inheritance forms because it is only when these documents [LETTER OF ADMINISTRATION] is issued that you have the legal authority over the credit balance and the Estates of the deceased holder of the account,so as of now you have no legal right and no bank can grant you any request to deduct, transfer or remove part of this funds without this legal instrument authorizing the bank to make payment. Therefore, I am ready to provide you with every demand by the Bank.

Under normal circumstance an amount of this magnitude can never be approved by e-mail alone, without your physical appearance for intensive interview with bank officials, but because of the money I will be spending as duties/tips and due to the involvement of the top bank official, that protocols will not be observed and yet approval will be given in your favor without questions.

So send me the following information if you are capable and ready to handle a business of this magnitude and very sure that you will not let me down once the fund goes into your account:

(1) Your full name......................
(2) Your full residential address......
(3) Your private Tel/fax numbers........
(4) Bank name..........................
(5) Bank address........................
(6) Account#...........................
(7) Account name........................
(8) Bank tel/fax numbers...............
(9) Swift code..........................

The above information can be an EMPTY account provided it is still active and safe . Any account can serve for this purpose. On receipt of the above information and a strong assurance from you I will then start to process the transfer to your account without any delay. I will be sending you all the transaction documents as we proceeds. This transaction can be concluded within 7 banking days if you can speedy up action.

SECURITY :- WE HAVE DONE OUR HOME WORK THOROUGHLY. SO, THERE WILL BE NOTHING TO BE AFRAID OF BECAUSE WE ARE HIGHLY PLACED IN THE BANK . YOU MUST KEEP THIS BUSINESS AS A TOP SECRET. YOU MUST NEVER DISCUSS IT WITH ANYBODY NO MATTER HOW CLOSE YOU ARE WITH THE PERSON UNTIL WE PULL THE DEAL THROUGH. YOU MUST NOT REPLY TO ANY EMAIL FROM NIGERIA THAT IS NOT FROM ME WITHOUT THIS PASSCODE (ND1964) EXCEPT WHEN IT COMES WITH MY EMAIL ADDRESS. AS TIME GOES ON, I WILL GIVE YOU MY TELEPHONE NUMBER WHERE WE CAN COMMUNICATE.

I want to assure you that this funds is free from money laundering, drug related money nor terrorist money as all document related to the release of the funds will be forwarded to your bank as soon as the funds are release to your account.

Let me hear from you ASAP.

Regards,

MR. JOHN PHILIPS
