Dear Sir,

I know that this email will surely come to you as a surprise, but I will crave your indulgence to view it seriously and I apologise, but I hope that it will be a welcome surprise. Before I run out of steam, I will like to introduce my self and go straight to the point. My name is MR. EDWARD ILEBOR, a banker. My primary reason for writing to you is to seek your partnership/assistance in a business transaction. I need your partnership and assistance because of the following reasons:

a. It is practically impossible for me to carry out this business alone.

b. You live in a foreign land far away from mine. This should normally not be a requirement, but when you understand the transaction then you will understand why it is important that you live far away from me.

c. The amount of money involved in this transaction is US$21,500,000.00, which is too much for a man of modest means like my 
self to handle in my country. I believe from my few points above, you can begin to get an idea why I need your participation.

Let me explain a bit to you the source of the money, which is the basis of this business I am proposing, came about. Before I became a deputy director, some years ago I used to be Accounts Officer to some special corporate customers. One of these very important customers of our bank (Union Bank PLC) was Engineer Johnson Juan Creek an American citizen, who had spent most of his years before his death working in Africa and mostly in Nigeria. He died in a plane crash in 1996 in Nigeria.

This money belonged to him. Technically speaking now, it belongs only to his name. The money is a payment he received for a contract he executed on behalf of the Federal Ministry of Works and Housing for the government (Installation of Pipelines in Warri Refinery).

My reason for deciding to carry out this transaction is that Engineer Creek did not mention any next of kin in any of the documents held by the bank for the number of years he had banked with us. Since 1996 we have searched for any body that could be related to late Engineer Creek, I was mandated by the bank to search for a relation of late Engineer Creek and I did this from January 1997 to December 1999 after which the search was called off in the belief that soon a relative may turn up to claim his estate. 

Nevertheless, as it is, there is no relative. Now, the Chairman of the bank who is a retired soldier has indicated his intentions for the money. During the last meeting of Directors and Deputies, he said that he would donate the money to a military trust if it were not claimed soon; this invariably means the continuous flow of more arms and ammunition. I know for sure that not all of the money will go to the military trust some will surely line his pockets and that of anybody who is in support of his plan.

My plan is to get a trust worthy person that can, under my constant guidance present him self as a cousin to the late Engineer Creek. I want you to note that your citizenship does not matter; You do not have to be an American. The papers demanded by the normal procedure for the claiming of an inheritance will take care of everything. You will be sole beneficiary to the estate of Engineer Creek. All I need is for you to follow my instructions closely because I am experienced in inheritance matters here and I am on ground here to advice you on every step until you receive the money. Then we meet.

For your participation, we will allow you 30% of the gross. All expenses incurred in the process of this transaction will be deducted from the gross value and shared at a commensurate ratio; this we will do at the end of the transaction, because the money is bonded. An estimated 10% or less will cover all incidental expenses and we will take 60% for ourselves. The most important thing to me right now is trust on both sides. Now the money is still in the care of the bank, I hope the trust will still be there when we must have legally established your relationship as cousin to Engr. Creek and the money is paid to you. I need also to trust that you will not tell people or your bank about this business. You will collect the money first, then I get my share, and then you can tell anybody what you chose thereafter. I shall need your help to invest in your country; therefore, any experience you have in this area will be beneficial.

Surely, you must have some questions or may be you just need further clarification. I will be happy to receive a telephone call from you or a fax message to this effect, this will enable me explain further what the next step is and the general plan. I will also need your most confidential telephone number and fax number, if you have a mobile phone I believe it will help so that I can reach you anytime. Please kindly respond by Fax or email only.

Your positive and negative response is highly welcome.

MR. EDWARD ILEBOR
