STRICTLY
CONFIDENTIAL & URGENT

Dear,

I approach you today with respect and honor.First of all, I am
sorry for intruding on your privacy by sending this letter which is
unsolicited for .But I will implore you to read through this letter
with all diligence and attention, at the end, I leave you to draw your
own conclusion on what line of action to take, but I positively
believe the proposal will be of great interest to you, because every
date and information given to you in this letter are verifiable and
true.

I am Mark Hills, Canadian assistant attach at the High Commission of
Canada Africa.I got your contact through personal inquiry and
as a matter of urgency.I took my time before contacting you
because of the confidential nature of this letter as well as my
sensitive position in office.Though I know that a proposal
like this will make anyone apprehensive.This is by virtue of
its unfamiliar and sudden approach.PleaseI could no longer
doubt your credibility and capability as regards this
task.This is why I am convinced and willing to seek your
assistance and full cooperation on this golden opportunity.

PREAMBLE: However, I write in respect of a letter of inquiry we
received from the Security Company.The letter requested
contact information of the closest surviving relative of one Gloria
Madison.According to the letter Gloria Madison was a Canadian
and client of the company who died in a local plane crash (EAS AIRLINE
2002) Based on the strength of the report, late Gloria Madison was a
real estate investor and crude oil business and had deposited the sum
of $ 23,500 Million with the security company, this was not disclose
because this fund is in a trunk box for investment before her
death.

The letter further stated that all meaningful efforts made to get
response from her family through her agent (lawyer) for the completion
of the transaction was a failure.After several unsuccessful
attempts to reach the late investor's family through the Canadian
Chambers of Commerce, the company decided to contact the Canadian High
Commission on this regard.Since then, my female colleague Ms.
Anita Shakelford, head of immigrants' record department had been
working with our home office to contact the late investor's family at
the request of the Security Company.Unfortunately, the home
office was unable to contact anyone related to the late
investor.Confirming our record, the deceased was believed to
have spent much of his life outside Canada.At this point, it became
clear that the deceased origin status could not be
ascertained.Since we could not locate the deceased relative
and considering the prevailing circumstance, we deliberately decided
to delay our reply letter of findings to the Security Company to
enable us to search for a neutral and reliable person for a possible
replacement.

THE DEAL: This is why I decided to contact you on behalf of my female
colleague because of the decease's unknown origin status to enable us
to claim this fund.I now seek your permission to have you
stand the next of kin to the late investor, so that the fund could be
claimed by you being the late beneficiary's next of kin.The
Company had stated in the letter conditions for the release of the
fund, should the next of kin decide not to complete the investment
plans with them that is, the next of kin must be duly certified by the
High Commission, and a letter that effect must be
tendered.Interestingly, all documented information of the late
investor's transactions is available to us in strict
confidence.To this end, we are most interested in your
willingness and co-operation.

RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS: To this end, we have more appeal for your
willingness and co-operation.Note that this proposal is risk
free.Upon completion of this assignment, we will be happy to
offer you 40% of this total sum as compensation for your
assistance.We have also set aside 10% of the total sum for the
settlement of all likely expenses that would be incurred during this
transaction.You would also be informed of further details
based on your response.If this proposal is acceptable to you,
we appeal that you do not make undue advantage of the trust we have
bestowed on you.This letter is strictly for your consumption
alone.
