CITIZENS INTERNATIONAL BANK LTD.,
LAGOS.NIGERIA

Dear

I am the Officer, BILL AND EXCHANGE of THE FOREIGN REMITTANCE DEPARTMENT OF CITIZENS INTERNATIONALBANK LTD.,LAGOS.NIGERIA.I am writing to you, following the impressive
information about your profile through the Website,and I believe in your capability and reliability
tochampion this opportunity. In my department, we discovered an abandoned sum of
14million US dollars (Fourteen million US dollars) in an account that belongs to one of our foreign
customers who died along with his entire family in September,1997 in a plane crash. Since we got information about his death, we have been expecting his next of Kin to come over and claim his
money because we can not release it unless some body applies for it as next of Kin or relative to the
deceased as indicated in our banking and financial policies but unfortunately we learnt that his supposed
next of kin or relation died with him in the accident leaving nobody behind to claim the money.

It is therefore upon this discovery that I and other officials in my department now decided to make this
business proposal to you and release the money to you as the next of kin or relation to the deceased for
safety and subsequent disbursement since nobody is coming for it and we don稚 want this money to go into the Bank treasury as unclaimed bills.

The Banking law and guide line here stipulates that if such money remained unclaimed after seven years, the money will be transferred into the Bank treasury as unclaimed fund. The request for a foreigner as next of kin in thisbusiness is occasioned by the fact that the customer was a foreigner and an indigene cannot stand as nextof kin to the deceased family.

We agreed that 20% of this money will be for you as foreign partner, in respect to the provision of a
foreign account, 5% will be set aside for expenses incurred during this transaction and 75 % would be for me and my colleagues. 

Ther eafter,I and my colleagues will visit your country for disbursement according to the percentages
indicated.Therefore, to enhance the immediate transfer of thisfund to you as arranged,you must apply first to theBank as relation or next of kin of the deceased indicating your private, telephone and fax number for easy and effective communication and location where the money will be remitted.

Upon receipt of your reply, I will send to you by faxor e-mail the text of the application.I will not
fail to bring to your notice that this transaction is hitch free and that you should not entertain any atom
of fear as all required arrangements have been made for the transfer. 

You should contact me on MY E-MAIL, as soon as you receive this letter. I decided to contact you as you have products of interest in your part of the world where we can invest our own percentage to avoid peoples awarenessas we are civil servants.

Note that we can conclude this operation within ten banking days.Please keep this very confidential for
obvious security reasons. Contact me for more information, all confirmable before you apply if you want. Trusting to hear from you shortly for a detailed information which are confirmable before you can makeup your mind to apply.If however,you are not interested,do let me know
by returm maill too as I will not contact anybody else until I hear from you.

May God be with you.

Yours faithfully,
you can also mail through my private mail
