Message body: Dear Friend

I have an urgent and very confidential business proposition for you. On
December 6th, 2005,an American Cocoa merchant/consultant, Mr. Bob Thomas
made a numbered time (fixed) deposit for twelve calendar months valued at
$14,000,000.00(Fourteen million US dollars) at my branch.

Upon maturity, we sent a routine notification to his forwarding address
but got no reply.After a month, we sent a reminder. Eventually, we
discovered from his contract employer that Mr. Thomas had died. Further
investigations conducted by me indicated that he neither left a WILL nor
a contactable anext of kin or a relation in his entire official document,
including his bank deposit information with us. This amount is still
available in my branch, and rolls over with interest every year.

Nobody has and will ever come forward to claim this money. According to
our Country's Law,at the expiration of 5 (five) years, this money will be
reverted to the Ownership of the Government, which in turn will end up in
the hands of some very corrupt and unscrupulous Government Officials.
Consequently, my proposal is that, I will like you to stand in as his
next of kin, so that this old man's fruit of labor does not get into the
hands of uncaring Government Officials.

There are legions of less privileged people all over the world for whom a
meal is like paradise. I feel that other than allowing this money to
disappear, it will be more useful and beneficial to give it out to
charitable Organizations. I need your assistance as an foreigner to
stand in as his next of kin and claim this money.

The process is simple. According to my enquiries from attorneys, all that
is required to claim this money is a letter of ADMINISTRATION from the
probate registry of the Federal High Court. An attorney will apply with
your name as his next of kin. A letter of administration will be issued
within Ten (10) working days. This letter will enable the attorney apply
to claim this money on your behalf, which would then be transferred to you
into a foreign account which you will provide.

I wish to point out that I want 40% of this money to be shared among the
charity Organizations, while the remaining 60% is shared equally between
us. This proposition is entirely risk free. A good attorney would provide
expert services while I will use my position in the bank to guarantee the
successful execution of this transaction. If you are interested, please
contact me via my email address: eshjohnson1@hotmail.com Upon your
response, I shall then provide you with more details and relevant
documents that will help you understand this transaction well. Please
observe utmost confidentiality, and be rest assured that this transaction
would be profitable for both of us. I will also require your assistance
towards investing my share in
your Country.

I look forward to your anticipated cooperation. Sincerely,

Mr.Eshley Johnson
