Dear Friend,

I am Mr. Abba Ghali, Bank Manager of Global Bank Nigeria. Plc, Lagos Branch.

On June 21, 2010, an Oil Consultant/Contractor with the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, 
Engr. Barton 
made a numbered time (fixed) deposit for twelve Calendar months, valued at USD$10,800,000.00 (Ten 
Million, Eight 
Hundred Thousand Dollars) in my branch. Upon maturity, I sent a routine notification to his 
forwarding address but 
got no reply. After a month, we sent a reminder and finally we discovered from his contract 
employers, Nigerian 
National Petroleum Corporation that (Engr. Barton) died with his entire family of wife and two 
children in an 
automobile accident. 

On further investigation I found out that he did not leave a WILL and all attempt to trace his next 
of kin were 
fruitless. We have written several letters to the embassy with an intent to locate any of his 
extended relatives 
whom shall be claimants/beneficiaries of his abandoned personal estate and all such efforts have 
been to no avail. 
I therefore made further investigation and discovered that (Engr. Barton) did not declare any next 
of kin in all 
his official documents including his bank deposit paperwork. This sum of USD$10,800,000.00 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. More so, I have received official letters in the last few weeks suggesting a likely 
proceeding for 
confiscation of his abandoned personal assets in line with existing laws by the bank in which my 
client deposited 
the sum of USD$10,800,000.00. On this note, I decided to search for a credible and honest person 
like you before 
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 of 
(Engr. Barton) 
so that the fruit of this old man 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, address,  telephone/fax number, 
Bank Account Detail, 
age and occupation 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 an attorney 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 to  facilitate the transfer of this funds to you as the 
beneficiary/next of 
kin of (Engr. Barton) The money will be paid into your account for us to share in the ratio of 55% 
for me and 40% for you. 
5% is to reimburse any incidental expenses we might have incurred during the cause of actualising 
this transaction. 
There is no risk whatsoever as all the paperwork for this transaction will be done by the attorney 
and my position as the Branch 
Manager guarantees the successful execution of this transaction. 

If you are interested, please reply immediately with this private email address: 
abbaghali3@yahoo.co.jp 
Upon your response, I shall then provide you with more details.Please 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 of the funds into viable business in your country like Real Estate. 

Awaiting your urgent reply and please save me the anxiety of endless waiting.

God bless you.
