Good Day,
l am Mr. Mike Okonkwo, Civil Servant in the Ministry of Health. l know
this proposal will come to you as asurprise because we have not met before
either physically or through correspondence. I got your contact from our
chamber of commerce here in Nigeria and have no doubt in your ability to
handle this proposal involving huge sum of money.
My father Chief Isama Okonkwo (Now Late) was the Royal Head of my
community, ELEME (an oil rich town) in Nigeria. My community produces 5.8%
of the total crude oil production in Nigeria and 0.5% of the Dollar value
of each barrel is paid to my father as royalty by the Federal Government.
My father was also the Chairman of ISAMA Special Oil Trust Fund. In his
position as the Royal head and Chairman of the Oil Trust Fund, he made
some money which he left for me as the only heir to inherit.
The money is Eighteen Million, Five Hundred Thousand US Dollars(US$18.5).
This Money originated from the accumulated royalties between 1976-1998 .
Due to poor banking system in Nigeria and political instability as a
result of past Military rules (1985-1999) , he deposited this Money in a
Strong Room/"VAULTS" with an open beneficiary in a security company
pending when he would finish arrangement to transfer it abroad . He was
planning this when he died late last year of Heart Attack.Just before my
father died he called my attention to the money and charged me to look
for a foreigner who would assist me in the transfer/investment of the
funds abroad. So l would be very grateful if you could accept to help me
achieve this great objective.
I promise to give you 15% of the total funds transferred to your vital
bank account as compensation for your assistance. Five percent (5%)has
been set aside to take care of all expenses we may incure during the
transaction. To indicate your interest, contact me urgently and
confidentially for more information and the roles you will play in this
business.
All the legal Documents concerning this Money will be sent to you as soon
as we agreed together. Please I will appreciate that you send your
telephone/fax numbers to enable me contact you immediately for
discussions.
MAY THE ALMIGHTY GOD BLESS YOU.

MR. MIKE OKONKWO.
