good faith and intentions from a friend in dare need of your assistance to
assist me transfer the inheritance sum of US$8.5M (Eight Million, Five Hundred
Thousand United States Dollars) into your account or company’s account, in

My name is Barr. Richard Bilton, An Attorney at Law and Senior Advocate of Nigeria
(SAN).I am the personal Attorney to Late Engr. Anthony Douglas, A National of
your country, who used to work with Chevron Development Company in Nigeria.
Herein after shall be referred to as my Client. On the 21st of April 2006, my
client, his wife and their three children were involved in a fatal car Accident
along Sagamum Express Road. All occupants of the vehicle unfortunately lost
their lives. Since then I have made several inquires to the Embassy to locate
any of my clients extended relatives this has also proved unsuccessful.

After these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to track his name over the
Internet, to locate any member of his family hence I contacted you. I have
contacted you to assist in repatriating the money and property Left behind by my
client before they get confiscated or declared Unserviceable by the bank where
these huge deposits were lodged.

Particularly, the Bank manager where the deceased had an account valued at
about (US$8.5M) Eight Million Five Hundred United States Dollars has issued me a
notice to provide the Next of Kin or Have the Account confiscated within the
next 21 working days.Since I have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives
for over some months now,I then seek your consent to present you as the next of
kin to the deceased since you are a foreigner so that the proceeds of this
account valued at (US$8.5M) Eight Million Five Hundred United States Dollars can
be paid to you and then you and me can share the money.

I’m amazed anyone reads these emails and believes them but anyway here is a a great 419 scam for details of this and other scams and the guys that scam the scammers checkout 419eater.com

In amongst my spam mails today I got another of the Lagos Bank Scams. I always wonder how people fall for such gambits.

Standard Trust Bank of Nigeria,
Lagos-Nigeria.

STRICTLY A PRIVATE BUSINESS PROPOSAL

I am Alhaji Ahmed Dasuki, The manager, Bills and Exchange at
the Foreign Remittance Department of the Standard
Trust Bank of Nigeria Plc. I am writing this letter to
ask for your support and cooperation to carry out this
business opportunity in my department. We discovered
an abandoned sum of $15,000,000.00 (Fifteen million
United States Dollars only) in an account that belongs
to one of our foreign customers who died along with
his entire family of a wife and two children in
November 1997 in a Plane crash.

Since we heard of his death, we have been expecting
his next-of-kin to come over and put claims for his
money as the heir, because we cannot release the fund
from his account unless someone applies for claim as
the next-of-kin to the deceased as indicated in our
banking guidelines. Unfortunately, neither their
family member nor distant relative has ever appeared
to claim the said fund. Upon this discovery, I and
other officials in my department have agreed to make
business with you and release the total amount into
your account as the heir of the fund since no one came
for it or discovered he maintained account with our
bank, otherwise the fund will be returned to the banks
treasury as unclaimed fund.

We have agreed that our ratio of sharing will be as
stated thus; 20 % for you as foreign partner, 75 % for
us the officials in my department and 5 % for the
settlement of all local and foreign expenses incurred
by us and you during the course of this business.

Upon the successful completion of this transfer, I and
one of my colleagues will come to your country and
mind our share. It is from our 75% we intend to import
Agricultural Machineries into my country as a way of
recycling the fund. To commence this transaction, we
require you to immediately indicate your interest by a
return e-mail and enclose your private contact
telephone number, fax number full name and address and
your designated bank coordinates to enable us file
letter of claim to the appropriate departments for
necessary approvals before the transfer can be made.

Note also, this transaction must be kept STRICTLY
CONFIDENTIAL because of its nature.

I look forward to receiving your prompt response at my
private email: [email protected]

If you do not intend to help me, i will respect your
privacy and not contact you again.

Thank you

Ahmed Dasuki
