FROM THE DESK OF:STAN OBI
CHAMBERS & ASSOCIATES
NO 33 WEMA BANK ROAD ALABA INTERNATIONAL MRT
LAGOS, NIGERIA.

Dear Friend,

I sincerely apologize for intruding into your privacy especially by contacting you through this means for a business transaction of this magnitude, but due to its seriousness and urgency it therefore became necessary for me to seek your assistance.

I am Barr. Stan Obi the personal lawyer to Late Mr. Mark, a national of your country, who worked with an Oil Servicing Company in the oil rich Niger Delta Area of Bayelsa State. I am contacting you concerning my late client and an
investment he made. I would respectfully request that you keep the contents of this mail confidential and respect the integrity of the information you come by as a result of this mail. I contacted you independently and no one should be informed of this communication. I would like to intimate you with certain facts
that I believe would be of interest to you.

This is a genuine transaction and is 100% risk free. All I'm demanding from you is your honest co-operation to enable us achieve our goal, and not a perfidious person. On the 6th of May, 2003 it was reported to us that my Client, his wife
and their only daughter were involved in a car crash along the Lekki-Epe Pennisular Express Way here in Lagos, Nigeria.

Meanwhile, until his death, my late client had a Fixed Deposit Account of USD $12.8 Million deposited in a Bank (Diamond Bank Plc) here. Recently, I received an ultimatum from the Bank asking me to provide my late client's relative so
that the money would be given to them. But unfortunately it was discovered that my late client did not declare any identifiable family member in all the official documents he tendered to the Bank while opening the account.

Therefore, this development leaves me as the only person with the full picture of what the prevailing situation is in relation to the deposit my late client made and who is entitled to be the Bona Fide Beneficiary/Next of Kin or
relative because he died intestate. Therefore, if I fail to locate any of his relatives or his next of kin (and have this money transferred to them) the Bank will at the expiration of the 6 weeks ultimatum given to me confiscate the
account.

According to the ultimatum issued to me by the Bank, if I fail to present to them my late client's relative, with a legitimate statement of claim for the money before the given time they will confiscate the account and the money
declared 'UNCLAIMED BALANCE'. This will result in the money being taken over by the Bank. This will not happen if I have my way.

Since I have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives of my late client all these while, my proposal, therefore, is to present you as the next of kin/relative of my client due to the fact that you are a foreigner and can easily pass as a possible relative of my client. I know you will be wondering how possible this could be but I assure you that this is simple.

I therefore seek your consent to present you as the Next Of Kin to my client so that the money he deposited with the (Diamond Bank Plc) would be paid to you and there after you and I will share the money 40% for you and I will be taking
60%. I assure you that the deposit would be released to you within a few days because I have all the relevant information that would facilitate that will be required on Documentation.

Firstly, I will like you to provide immediately the following information:

Your full names:
Contact address:
Telephone/Fax Numbers:
Occupation:

With this information I will prepare the necessary documents and affidavit that
will put you in place as the next of kin. After we have successfully satisfied the requirements of the bank the money totaling USD $12.8 Million
would be paid into your account for you to take 40% and I will be taking 60%. All I require
is your honest co-operation to enable us see this through.

There is no risk at all because everything would be done legally and my position as a qualified attorney will facilitate everything. Secondly, I willgive you all the necessary documents that would serve as evidence proving that you are the Next of Kin/ Relative of my late client. These documents will legally confer on you the status to act as the Beneficiary of the Estate of my
late client.

What I related to you might smack of unethical practice but I want you to understand that this is a once in life time opportunity capable of turning around our situation. The truth is that this money would not be taken by the government but by some greedy Bank Officials and I would not fold my arms and watch this happen hence my decision to contact you.

If you are interested in this transaction, kindly send your reply to my private
email address; (javascript:top.opencompose('brrsobi@officer.com','','','1'))

Thank you as I await your positive response.

Barrister Stan Obi.


Dear Autumn,

Thank you very much for your urgent response to my mail . I appreciate your concern. I tried reaching you on your given phone but I couldn't get through. I shall try again later today.

As a matter of fact, the reason why I contacted you is because I have not been able to locate any of my late client's family member since his death and if I fail to present a next of kin to the (Diamond Bank Plc) before the expiration of the ultimatum given to me, the money he deposited at the (Diamond Bank Plc) would be forfeited.

Therefore, I am pleading with you to kindly allow me to use your name in filing the claims for this fund and by so doing you will act as Late Mr. Mark Crosby's next of kin/beneficiary. Please be informed that I will back you up for the claims with all the legal documents to authenticate the legitimacy of your claims, hence there will be no problem during and after the transaction as the fund would be transferred to your account as the bonafide next of kin to my late Client.

However, I cannot do this alone without your assistance because you will be of immense help to ensure that this claim is successful. In other words our success solely depends on team work; mutual co-operation and understanding bearing in mind that you and I stand to make a fortune from this transaction. Just be assured that everything would be done legally and there would be no breach of the law.

I will however like to highlight the ways and approaches that would be used. But before I commence, I will advice that you take this transaction very seriously.

Upon your positive response to this mail, I will give you additional information. However, I will like you to know that I will send a letter to the (Diamond Bank Plc) to notify them that I have finally located my late client's relatives and that you are the bonafide next of kin of Late Mr.Mark Crosby, Therefore the Information, Your full names, Contact address, you sent to me would enable me prepare the application I will send to the (Diamond Bank Plc ) on your behalf, which I will also send you a copy of the application text and their contact so you can also send it to them by email or Fax.

With the above information also, I will use same to apply for a Sworn Affidavit with the High Court. The affidavit will give you the legal status to act as the next of kin/beneficiary to my late Client. This is to ensure that all Rights and Privileges of Late Mr. Mark Crosby would be transferred to you as the next of kin/Beneficiary. This Sworn Affidavit is a legal document that would give
you the legal status to receive the funds in your account.

Upon processes for the affidavit for the transfer of Rights and Privileges to your name at the High Court, I shall apply officially with the necessary documents to the (Diamond Bank Plc) for the approval, signing of the Fund Release Order and subsequent transfer of the funds to your account.
Apart from the Sworn Affidavit, I shall also as your attorney submit to the bank the following documents:
a. Death Certificate.
b. Deposit Certificate.

I believe that with the information stated above I will be able to file up for the claim with the (Diamond Bank Plc) and we shall then await their response. Please you can call me on 00-234-8085522023 for further clarifications and for us to establish a line of communication.

And note that everything concerning this transaction which you and I are about to undertake must be taken seriously and confidential until you get the funds transferred into your bank account.

Also, Please I will advise you to disregard any email of any kind that comes to you again saying you should come for the claim of any money, because my office as well as the Bank will want to know if you are the real next of kin to my late client, Mr. Mark Crosby by sending you various messages to see if you will respond, so disregard any email of such you receive from now and always forward such messages to me for proper action and advice.

Thanks and I await your soonest reply.

Regards,
Barrister Stan Obi.
