three_
_years ago in a ghastly air crash, banked with us here at First Bank_
_Plc , Lagos, and had a closing balance of USD$35.5M (Thirty-Five_
_Million, Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars) which the
bank_
_know unquestionably expects to be claimed by any of his available_
_foreign next of kin or alternatively be donated to a discredited
trust_
_fund for arms and ammunition at a military war college here in_
_Nigeria._
_Fervent valuable efforts are being made by the First Bank Plc to
get_
_in touch with any of late Engr. William Adams’s next of kin (he had_
_no known wife and children) that the management under the influence
of_
_our chairman, board of directors, Retired Major General Kalu_
_Uke Kalu, that an arrangement for the fund to be declared “UNCLAIMED

_and then be subsequently donated to the trust fund for Arms_
_and Ammunition which will further enhance the course of war in
Africa_
_and the world in general._

_proves to enable you get this fund have been carefully worked out_
_and we are assuring you a 100% risk free involvement. Your share

_be 30% of the total amount. 10% has been set aside for_
_expenses, while the rest would be for me and my colleagues for our_
_involvement and we wish to invest our shares in real estate /oil_
_business in country, under your supervision._
