Dear Norman,
How are you doing today? I hope all is well with you and your family? Let me use this opportunity to unfold the modalities we shall follow to conclude this business to have the money secured in your possession. Please, I want you to take a little time out and read my mail carefully to enable you understand how we shall conclude the business quickly. I also tried to call you on phone but, the network here is bad.

For the transaction, there are TWO STAGES. The first is to make you the NEXT OF KIN as the beneficiary of this money. The SECOND STAGE is the actual transfer of the money. This is when the BANK will need your bank information for the transfer of the money into your bank account.

In the first stage, I want you to send your FULL NAME AND MAILING ADDRESS to me so that, I will use it & proceed to the Federal High Court here in Nigeria to secure two important documents in your name. There is One thing I also want you to understand concerning my business proposal to you. Here in my country, a lot of foreigners worked here in different oil companies and left the country either by death or permanent disability. They also deposited various sums of money in their bank accounts.

The banks in Nigeria does not like to pay this huge sum of money to the deceased NEXT OF KIN unless we present someone to them who must also be a foreigner as the Next of Kin. I have applied to the bank severally to pay this money to me but, they refused unless I present the Next Of Kin to my late client who must also be a foreigner. This is one of my major reasons for contacting you. If you have any question/s to ask, please, feel free to ask and I'll clarify issues to you.

There are 5 documents which the bank requested from us before they will approve this money in your name as the NEXT OF KIN to my late client. The documents are:

1.ORIGINAL DEATH CERTIFICATE of my late client.
2.ORIGINAL DEPOSIT CERTIFICATE which the bank issued him the day he deposited this money for safe-keeping.
3.LETTER OF ADMINISTRATION.
4.SWORN AFFIDAVIT OF CLAIM.

Right now, I have number 1 & 2 of the above requested documents with me while we shall secure number 3 & 4 from the federal high court here in Nigeria in your Name & Address. Once the approvals are out, the bank will then require us to submit another important document called DRUG-LAW & ANTI-TERRORIST CLEARANCE CERTIFICATE which will be secured from office of National Drug-Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) here in Nigeria.

This Clearance Certificate will clear the money from anything related to Drug business, Money Laundering, and Terrorist Activities. I will also pay the sum of $10,000 as court fee to secure the two court papers excluding the Drug-Law Certificate. If there is any little financial assistance you'll render, I'll let you know at the appropriate time.

As soon as we present this Drug Certificate to the Bank, they will transfer the inheritance fund into the account you will provide later. I want you to open a new bank account with any amount of money you can afford and send to me. But, incase, you do not want to use your bank account details for the business, I will instruct the bank to send a Certified Bank Check to you as soon as the money is ready for transfer to you.

Please make sure you adhere to all my instructions so that we can succeed in our business. On receipt of your Mailing Address, I will commence work immediately. Sorry for taking your time to read my message. I am only trying to explain everything in details to you.

I am waiting to hear from you soonest.
Your brother & friend,
Barrister Chinyere Emmanuel
