Dear,
I am Dr. Mrs. Marian Abacha, wife to the late Nigerian Head of state,
General Sani Abacha who died on the 8th of June 1998 while still on
active service for our Country.
When my husband was alive I used to move funds running into millions
of United States Dollars to Brazil and Lebanon. However, on the eve of
my husband's death in June 8, 1998,he gave me the sum of US$76m
(million) in cash to move to Lebanon as usual, but immediately my
husband died I moved the funds to Oversea through a diplomatic courier
service to a security company in Oversea. The funds have been in the
security company in Oversea since July 1998.
Because of the restriction placed on my family by the Nigerian
Government, I Simply cannot travel to secure the funds from the
security company in Oversea. What I now need from you are as follows:
(1) You should travel to Oversea to secure the funds in cash on my
behalf and deposit it in your bank account in your country.
(2) You will be entitled to 10% of the total sum involved for your assistance.
(3) As soon as you confirm to me by e-mail your readiness to travel to
Oversea I will fax a copy of my Power of Attorney to the security
company in Oversea authorizing them to release the funds to you.
(4) As soon as you have the funds in your custody, I will give you my
account details in the Bahamas where you will transfer my funds to on
my behalf. Your URGENT response is needed. Please do not forget to
include your direct tel/fax line for easy reach. I hope I can trust
you with my family's last financial hope.
Best regards,
Dr. Mrs.Marian A. Abacha .
