Attn: Dear Good Friend

REQUEST FOR ASSISTANCE 

First, I must solicit your confidence in this  transaction; this is by virture of its nature as  being CONFIDENTIAL and TOP SECRET. Though I know  that a transaction of this magnitude will make any  one apprehensive but I am assuring that all will be  well at the end of the day. 

We have decided to contact you due to the urgency of  this transaction, as we are betting on your honesty  and ability in a transaction of this nature. Let me  first start by introducing myself properly to you. 

I am Mr. Malcolm Alabi, an executive director with  the Union Bank Plc., Lagos Nigeria. I came to know  of you in my private search for a reliable and  reputable person to handle this confidential  transaction, which involves the transfar of a huge  sum of money to a foreign account. 

THE PROPOSITION: a foreigner, Late Engineer Johnson  Creek, an Oil Contractor with the federal government  of Nigeria, until his death a year ago in a ghastly  air crash, banked with us here at Union Bank Plc.  Lagos and had a closing balance as at the end of  september, 2000 worth USD25.5m (Twenty - Five  Million, Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollar)  which the bank now expects a next of kin to claim as  beneficiary. 
Valuable efforts have been made by the Union  BankPlc., to get in touch with his family or  relatives but there has been no success. it is  because of the perceived possibility of not being  able to locate any of his next-of-kin (he had no  wife nor children that is known to the bank) that  the management under the influence of our Managing  Director Chairman, Board of Directors, requested  that arrangement be made for the funds to be  declared "UNCLAIMABLE" and subsequently donated to  the trust fund for arms ammunitions to further  enhance the course of war in Africa and the world in  general. 

In order to prevent this, some of my trusted  colleagues and I now seek your permission to have  you stand as a next-of-kin to him so that the fund  USD 25.5m would be released and paid into your  account as the beneficiary's next-of-kin. All  documents to enable you get this fund will be  carefully worked out. This proposal is 100%  risk-free. 
We have agreed that the fund be shared thus, after  it must have been transferred into your account. 

1) 15% of the money will go to you for acting as the  beneficiary of the fund. 

2) 10% will be set aside for reimbursement to both  parties for any incidental expenses that may be  incurred in the course of the fund transfer. 

3) 75% to us the originators of the transaction. 

If this proposal is acceptable to you, then take  advantage of the trust we have bestowed on you and  your company and kindly get to me immediately.  Please, furnish me with your most confidential  telephone, fax and mobile numbers. Also your  exclusive bank account particulars will be required  so that I can use the information to apply for the  release and subsequent transfer of the funds in your  favour. 

Thank you in advance for your anticipated  co-peration. 

Yours faithfully, 

Malcolm Alabi
