Greetings I know that this email will come to you as a deep surprise judging from the fact that we have not met before. I got your details from a director at the Federal Ministry of External Affairs. He is not aware of what I am about to introduce to you as this transaction requires strict confidentiality. I therefore decided to contact you to assist me in the venture mentioned below. I am the first son of General Sanni Abacha, the late Military Head of State of Nigeria. I have been in detention for past four years and I was only granted bail recently by an Abuja High Court when the government requested that my family should return two billion United States dollars for my freedom. This was agreed in principal and upon my release, I have refused to honor the pledge because there was some loopholes in my agreement with the Government and the money issue which I consider to be my family's money duly earned. This is why we need a foreign partner to whom the money will transferred and who will contact the Central Bank of Nigeria(C.B.N) and make a claim of the money. This money is question is presently in a numbered(coded) account at the C.B.N awaiting claim upon presentation of ownership details which include the account access number and the transfer authorisation code. Now, on behalf of my family I wish to beg of you to help in this regards because with the current searchlight beamed on my family activities, we are afraid that the money may be discovered. This is why we need a foreign partner whom will make a claim of the funds and transfer the funds to either Europe, America or Asia. The total sum of this money is US$41,500,000.00 and because of the many restrictions placed on my family by the present Nigerian Government, it has become impossible for either me or any immediate member of my family to travel outside Nigeria or even operate personal accounts successfully both home and abroad with undue government interference. I will explain my family situation to you later, if you are interested in knowing. What I now want you to do for my family and myself are as follows:- (1) You should help transfer and secure the funds on our behalf in your bank account in your Country, pending further instructions from my family. (2) My family will be willing to give you 20% of the total $41.5 Million as your commission for your assistance. (3) As soon as you confirm to me through my email of your readiness to assist,I shall send you the Account Access Number and the transfer Authorisation (code) that will a be proof of ownership and grant you authority to claim the funds (4) As soon as you have the funds in your account, I will give you details of where and which sector you will invest my family's share of the funds into, on our behalf, in your Country. (5) Please note that this project is very legal and 100% risk free, because the funds in question are private family funds which are be legally kept with the C.B.N. (6) You must keep it very secret and confidential because of my personal and family security. It is also pertinent to state that we shall enter into an agreement with you, indicating the stakes of every party to this transaction. Please contact me immediately, via my email , informing me the possibility of your assistance. Waiting for your immediate response. Best regards.
