"Sir, I wish to state unequivocally that you were recommended to me with regards to your image and reputation, by your countryman who is a financial manager with Chevron Oil Ltd Nig.He is a man of good reputation and honors, though we have not met or entered into any form of transaction before to determine precisely the authenticity of your honesty, however I decided to action the recommendation which invariably suggest my conviction that you are trustworthy and honest. I am Auwalu Yadudu, the confidant of the family of the former Nigerian Military head of state, the late general Sani Abacha whose death occurred on the 8th June 1998.Hence,i was mandated by madam,mrs Maryam Abacha (the late General's wife)to source for a foreigner that could help take into custody a fund. Having gotten your particulars, I have no doubt about your credibility and goodwill to assist us in receiving into your custody (for safety) the sum of US $15million WILLED and deposited in favour of his son by the late General. The money is currently being kept in a trust fund/ security account, being administered by the family attorney. However the present civilian government on assumption of office,set up a panel of enquiry to investigate and probe all financial activities of the late General,with the resolve to confiscate all his assets. The panel has submitted its report and presently some properties belonging to the family have been seized and some of his account frozen.Fortunately, the family attorney had secretly withheld and protected the personal will of the late General from the notice of the investigation and has strictly advised that the fund be urgently transferred overseas for safety reasons. Earlier, the government had placed travel embargo on the family. The situation has been very critical and terrible that the family is virtually living on the assistance and good will of well wishers. In view of this plight, I appeal and expect you to be kind enough to respond to this call to save the widow and her siblings, from a hopeless future. We have agreed to compensate your sincere and candid effort in the regard with 25% of the fund when it is finally transferred into your local bank account. We shall work out modalities with the finance/security company to effect complete lodgments of this money into your account within seven (7) days of the receipt of your response. We are equally guaranteeing 100% risk-free and smooth transfer. Please Kindly contact me through this e-mail or through the alternative (deleted so other SI'ers don't get a similar lucky break). I look forward to your quick response. May Allah bless you. Sincerely yours, Auwalu. And may Allah bless you to!
