Dear Gibson

I am Barrister Emmanuel Eze Solicitor. I am the
Personal Attorney to Mr Mark cruise a national of
your country, who used to work with shell development
company in Nigeria.

On the 21st of April 1999, my client,his wife And
their three children were involved in a car accident
along Sagamu/Lagos Express Road.unfortunately they All
lost their lives in the event of the accident, Since
then I have made several enquiries to your Embassy to locate any of
in my clients extended relatives, this
has also proved unsuccessful.After these several
unsuccessful attempts, I decided to trace his
relatives over the Internet, to locate any member of
his family but to no avail, .
I contact you to assist me in receiving the money
and property left behind by my client before they get confiscated or
declared unserviceable by the bank where this huge deposits
lodged.Particularly, the Bank where the deceased had an account
valued at about $9 million dollars.

Conseqently,The bank issued me a notice to provide
the next of kin or have the account confiscated within the next ten
official working days. since i have been unsuccesfull in locating the
the relatives for over 3 years now I seek your consent to present
you as the next of kin of the deceased since you are from the same
country so that the proceeds of this account valued at $9 million
dollars can be paid to you and then you and me can share the money.
60% to me and 30% to you,while 10% should be for expenses or tax as
your government may require.

I have all necessary legal documents that can be used to back up any
claim we may make. All I require is your honest cooperation to enable
us see this deal through. I guarantee that this will be executed
under a legitimate arrangement that will protect y! ou from any
breach of the law.

Please get in touch with me by my email to enable us
discuss further.

Best regards,

Barrister Emmanuel Eze.

i just got this as well. i was wondering how it works…. if you give them faxes and phone numbers, what can they do? or is that a lead in to supply more information? has this type of scheme ever worked in the past? i find it odd that people are that naive.

I got this as well but being a great detective watcher I realised it was out of date. He/she said the person died in 1999 and it is 2004 now.
So before sending your details out please check to see if it a spam. Luckily I did not send any details out.

I also received an email similar, what is the point? How in the world do they think they are going to make any money or what not?

q, on July 1st, 2004 at 11:03 am Said:

are you people thick? the money making part is when they begin to have “problems” with legal fees, taxes, etc… and need you to put up a “small” ammount to cover the expenses. As time is running out, they need it right now, and cannot wait for the procedes of the fund. This is one of the oldest scams around, it’s been going on for YEARS. Before E-Mail, they used the postal service. I’ve seen variants of this dating back to the late 70’s.

Thanks
