Sir/Madam, The purpose of this proposal is not to bring any embarrassment to you as we have never met, but to seek your utmost understanding and assistance in the issue I am about to explain to you in thismail. my name is Barrister BEN BELLO, Yousee!,I have an issue of a very sensitive circumstance which I wish to confide to you. One of my clients, and of course, my major client who happens to be the chief security officer (CSO) to the late military dictator of the nation (Gen.Sani Abacha) who died on July 1998 on active service as the then head of State, his name Hamza Al-Mustapha called to confide an issue to me. Al-Mustapha is presently detained for charges of acute human right violations,and embezzlement of public funds leveled against him and the son of the late General (His Master). An inner house information has revealed that the duo are likely to face life imprisonment for the charges against them which they are likely to be convicted for. My client Al-Mustapha got this information some how and called to brief me of a security trunk which he deposited with a trust company here in Nigeria before his demise. According to him, the trunk contains the cash sum of US$35,000,000 (Thirty-five Million American Dollars) which the trust company does not know about yet, as it was declared as family’s jewelries and personal documents. Also according to him, security measures were taken to disguise the content of the trunk so that no one knows exactly what is inside. He said he stocked the bills in disguise for negative papers which he said are for some security photographs taken at the Presidential villa. Now that his chances of being set free from the allegations against him are rare, he called me to assist him in securing the funds, which of course is the only hope of the family (His two Wives,and nine children). After much deliberation however, I managed to convince him to endorse a change of beneficiary for the deposited trunk, this will enable the new beneficiary put an application for withdrawal of the trunk. In the light of this,I decided to contact you to assist us in this transaction. The plan is to change the beneficiary of the consignment into your name, forward you with all the necessary documents to this effect and have you contact the trust company for withdrawal of the trunk as the new/legal beneficiary. You will request that the consignment be delivered to you at your nominated destination. After proper identification and verification as the new legal beneficiary, the company will release the consignment to you. The company may also take care of handling of the consignment until it is delivered at your domain or any of your nominated destination, as you may advise. My client lost almost a hundred million Us dollars, frozen in Swiss banks and in different personal accounts on the instruction of the present democratic government of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. The plan to move this fund out of the country was informed by a joint decisions by the family of my client toinvestthismoney abroad, probably into commercial real estate, at least to shelter their money. Having gone through this explanation, and considering the fate of this family he is about to leave behind,I ask as implequestions:Should my client suffer for offences allegedly committed by him master?,should even his family be left, abandoned and even refused to be heard,by a government which is prosecuting their sole bread winner for human right violations? To freeze an account of a fulltime house wife whonever knew anything in the government, yet denied the basic requirements of life is a crime to humanity, and human rights violation at it speak. Yet my client’s family is presently denied of telephone access etc,hence denying them the freedom of communication and association. It is for this reason that I sincerely solicit your utmost assistance to move this fund into your care abroad, on behalf of the family for safe keeping,subject to when they are ready to manage the fund. It is also expected that you will represent this family in brokering the purchase of valuable/profitable properties in your country or the neighbouring,sotheycan always fall back to these properties when the heat on the family reduces. My client has also resolved to reward handsomely reward you with 5% of the total amount on the successful conclusion ofeachtransaction. I shall also be 100% available to provide you with the necessary assistance and guidelines you may require on the course of this transaction. I have just entrusted the details of this fund and the fate of this helpless family into your conscience for safe keeping. I also hope to have offered you a great opportunity to make yourself some good money,I believed I have. Should the above transaction appealtoyoutherefore, I hereby urge you to mail your esponse immediately for further details on immediate commencement of this transaction. You will also be doing us a lot of good to guide this informationwithimmenseconfidentiality, even if this transaction does not appeal to you. Please send copy of your reply to the AboveEmailAddress.
