Mr. Foster Agu 
Union bank Nigeria Plc, 
Lagos, Nigeria. 
Dear Sir, 
I am Mr,Foster Agu Bank Manager of Union bank Nigeria Plc, Lagos 
Nigeria. I have urgent and very confidential business proposition for you. 
On January 6,1998, a Foreign Oil Consultant/contractor with the 
Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, Mr. Adams Smith made a numbered time
(Fixed) Deposit for twelve calendar months, valued at US$25,000,000.00 (Twenty
Five Million United States Dollars) in my branch. Upon maturity, I sent a
routine notification to his forwarding address but got no reply. After a month,
we sent a reminder and finally we discovered from his contract employers, the
Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation that Mr. Adams Smith died in a plane
crash. On further investigation, I found out that he died without making a
WILL, and all attempts to trace his next of kin was fruitless. I therefore!
made further investigation and discovered that Mr. Adams Smith did not declare
any next of kin or relations in all his official documents, including his Bank
Deposit paperwork in my Bank. This sum of US$25,000,000.00 has carefully been
moved out of my bank to a security company for safekeeping. No one will ever come forward to claim it. 
According to Nigerian Law, at the expiration of 5 (five) years, the 
money will revert to the ownership of the Nigerian Government if nobody 
applies to claim the fund. Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as
a Foreigner to stand in as the owner of the money I deposited it in a security
company in two trunk boxes though the security company does not know the
contents of the boxes as i tagged them to be photographic materials for export. 
I am writing you because I as a public servant I cannot operate a foreign account or 
have an account that is more than $1m. I want to prese! nt you as the owner of
the boxes in the security company so you can be able to claim them with the
help of my attorney. 
All these are to make sure that the fruits of this old man's labor will not 
get into the hands of some corrupt government officials. 
This is simple. I will like you to provide immediately your full names 
and address so that the Attorney will prepare the necessary documents, 
which will put you in place as the owner of the boxes. The money will be 
shared in the ratio of 70% for me and 25% for you and 5% will take care of all
expenses. There is no risk at all as all the paperwork for this 
transaction will be done by the Attorney and this will guarantee 
the successful execution of this transaction. 
If you are interested, please reply immediately via my private email 
address, I shall then provide you with more details and relevant! documents
that will help you understand the transaction. 
Please observe with utmost confidentiality, and be rest assured that 
this transaction would be most profitable for both of us because I shall 
require your assistance to invest my share in your country. 
Awaiting your urgent reply via my private email to indicate your 
interest. 
Thanks and regards. 

MR Foster AGU
