Dear Friend,

On the 5th of January 2009 a gang of Niger Delta militants attacked and bombed oil refineries/ fields located on the Creeks of that region killing four (4) expatriate staff and 10 local staff of the company including Engr. Admas McCollins, a customer with Fidelity Bank plc. Conseqently I was mandated by the Management of my bank as his account service controller to help locate any of his close family or relations to Claim the money he deposited with the bank.

Engineer McCollins has in his account with Fidelity Bank plc before his sudden death the sum of $30.6 million USA dollars among other personal effects, including a life assurance policy worth $1.2 million insured with American International Insurance Company's African regional office in Nigeria (AIICO), all efforts to locate any of his immediate family proved abortive since he did not reside in Nigeria with any of his immediate family being a contractual staff with shell petroleum development company (SPDC).  (Nice capitalization of the company name here...)

Having been unsuccessful in locating any of his immediate families /relatives this past periods mostly as his 4 ( four) years contact is due to expire very soon , I decided to contact you to assist in Repatriating the money and properties left behind by my late customer before they get confiscated or declared Unserviceable by the bank and the insurance company.

I seek your consent and adequate co-operation to present you as a next of kin to the deceased, over the Proceeds of this account valued at ($30.6 million US Dollars) to be paid to you and then you and I can share the money in the ratio of 47% to you and 43% to me, while 5% goes to any unforseen expenses we may incure during the proscess of this business transaction while the other 5% will be kept aside for any charity organization after the finality of this business.  (Nope...I've never heard this line of bull before...)

An attorney will be contracted to assist us revalidate and notarize all the necessary legal documents that will be used to back up our claims. All I need is your honest cooperation to enable us see this deal through.  (I should be honest because you're such a stand-up guy?)

I guarantee you that this transaction will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you and me from any breach of the law. I will appreciate some measure of confidentiality until we finish the transaction, because of my position in the bank. More so, i will advice if you have no intension of assisting me with full honesty please, do not give attention to this letter as this is an official letter entrust by the board members of my bank.

Yours Sincerely,

Mr. Dennis Babatunde 

Not much explanation needed here.  Another classic 419 Nigerian scam.  Remember...if it sounds too good to be true...
