From: Dr. John A.Watts,
Manager, Credit and Foreign Bills,
Zenith International Bank Limited,
Lagos-Nigeria.

My name is Dr. John A. Watts, the manager Credit and Foreign Bills of Zenith
International  Bank  Limited of Nigeria.

I am writing in respect of foreign customer of my bank with  account number
14-255-2004/zib/t who died in a plane  crash (Ethiopian Airline 961)with 
other
passengers abroad.

Since the death of this customer, I personally have watched  with keen 
interest to
see the next of kin but all has proved abortive as no one has come
to claim his funds of  US$15.5m (Fifteen Million, Five Hundred Thousand 
United
States Dollars) which has been with my bank for a very long time.

On this note I decided to seek for whose name shall be used  as the next of 
kin as no one has come up to be the next of  kin. In view of this I got your 
contact
through my  country's foreign trade mission after I was convinced by 
providence that your name could be used as the next of  kin.

The request of the foreigner as a next of kin in this  business is 
occasioned by the
fact that the customer was a foreigner and a Nigerian cannot stand as the 
next of
kin to  a foreigner.

I agreed that 30% of this money will be for you as a foreign partner in 
respect of
providing a new bank account or we can use your old account information, 
while the rest will be for me, thereafter, I will visit your country
for disbursement as I am almost due for retirement.

Therefore, to facilitate the immediate transfer of this fund to your account 
as
arranged, you must apply first to the bank as a relation to the deceased 
indicating your  private telephone number, and fax number for easy 
communication and location where the money will be remitted. Upon the 
receipt of your reply, I will send you by fax or e-mail the application and
the next step to take.

I will not fail to bring to your notice that this business  is hitch-free 
and that
you should not entertain any fear as the whole required arrangement has been 
made
for  the transfer.

You should contact me immediately as soon as you receive this letter.

Trusting to hear from you.

Your respectfully,

Dr. John A.Watts.
