Subject: URGENT - US$25 MILLION DOLLARS DEAL

Mr. Greg Obi
Crown Merchant Bank PLC.
Lagos - NIGERIA.

ATTENTION: President/CEO

Dear president/CEO,

BUSINESS DEAL INVOLVING US$25 MILLION DOLLARS

IN SUMMARY:- of the 25,000,000.00 (twenty - five million) U.S. Dollars, I
agree to give you 4,000,000.00 (four million) U.S. Dollars for your
assistance, kindness and participation in the project.
I am Mr. Greg Obi, an Accounts Officer with Crown Merchant Bank PLC. I
have an urgent and very confidential business proposal for you.
On January 23, 1998, a Canadian Oil consultant/contractor with Shell
Petroleum Development Company Ltd., Mr. Rafael Winber made a numbered time
(Fixed) Deposit for twelve calendar months, valued at US$25,000,000.00
(Twenty- five Million Dollars) in my Bank. Upon maturity, I sent a routine
notification to his forwarding address but got no reply. After a month, I
sent a reminder and finally I found out from his contract employer - Shell
Petroleum Development Company that Mr. Rafael Winber died in an automobile
accident. On further investigation, I found out that he died without
making a WILL and all attempts to trace his NEXT OF KIN was fruitless.
I therefore made further investigation and discovered that Mr. Rafael
Winber did not declare any NEXT OF KIN or relations in all his official
documents including his Bank Deposit papers in my Bank. This sum of
US$25,000,000.00 is still sitting in my Bank and the interest is being
rolled over with the principal sum at the end of each year. No one has
ever come forward to claim it. According to Nigerian Law, at the
expiration of 5 (five) years, the money will revert to the ownership of
the Nigerian Government if nobody applies to claim the funds.
Consequently, my proposal is that:

1. I want you to STAND IN as the NEXT OF KIN of Late Rafael Winber so that
the fruits of this old man's labour will not get into the hands of some
corrupt Government officials. This is safe and simple. And Of the 25
million U.S. dollars, I agree to give you for your assistance, kindness
and participation, four million (4,000,000.00) U.S. dollars.
2. I want you to provide immediately a Bank Account in any part of the
world (either personal or company Account) to receive the funds.
3. I want you to immediately provide your full Names, and Address to
prepare the necessary documents and affidavits that will name you as the
NEXT OF KIN. I shall employ the services of an Attorney for the drafting
and notarization of the WILL and to obtain the necessary documents and
letter of probate/administration in your favour to MAKE EASY the transfer
of the aforementioned sum of Twenty - Five Million (25,000,000.00) U. S.
Dollars into your Account.
Be rest assured that all modalities has been worked out for the successful
transfer of the funds to your provided Bank Account within the next seven
(7) - Ten (10) working days with the funds confirmed irrevocably in your
Account.
All the paper work for this project will be done by an Attorney and my
position as the Accounts Officer guarantees the successful completion of
this business deal. Kindly expedite action and contact me via e-mail:
gregob@witty.com if the proposal is acceptable to you. Otherwise, I expect
you to re-send the proposal back to me and urge you not to disclose this
to anyone. Where you refuse assistance in this matter, Please treat as if
you were never contacted.
You must note that this Project is subject to the following conditions:

1. That you would treat it with utmost secrecy and confidentiality.

2. That the funds would be lodged in an account where
the incidence of taxation would not exert a heavy toll.

3. My conviction of your transparent honesty and trustworthiness.

IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT YOU MAINTAIN ABSOLUTE CONFIDENTIALITY THROUGHOUT
THIS PROJECT AND BE REST ASSURED THAT THIS WOULD BE A VERY PROFITABLE
VENTURE.
MY ASSURANCE IS THAT YOUR ROLE IS 100% RISK FREE AND I HAVE MADE THE
ARRANGEMENTS TO RETRIEVE ALL THE DOCUMENTS USED FOR THE TRANSACTION AS
SOON AS THE FUNDS ARRIVE YOUR BANK ACCOUNT SO THAT THERE WILL BE NO TRACE
THAT YOU ASSISTED IN RECEIVING AND KEEPING THE MONEY.
I hope you will move swiftly at this OPPORTUNITY. Kindly treat as very
important.
Looking forward to hear from you.

Best Regards,
Greg Obi
