DEAR SIR,
 

COMPLIMENTS OF THE SEASON. GRACE AND PEACE AND LOVE
FROM THIS PART OF THE ATLANTIC TO YOU. I HOPE MY
LETTER DOES NOT CAUSE YOU TOO MUCH EMBARRASSMENT AS
I WRITE TO YOU IN GOOD FAITH BASED ON THE CONTACT
ADDRESS GIVEN TO ME BY A FRIEND WHO WORKS AT THE
NIGERIAN EMBASSYIN YOUR COUNTRY. PLEASE EXCUSE MY
INTRUSION INTO YOUR PRIVATE LIFE.
 
I AM BARRISTER AHMED COLE, I REPRESENT MOHAMMED
ABACHA, SON OF THE LATE GEN. SANI ABACHA, WHO WAS
THE FORMER MILITARY HEAD OF STATE IN NIGERIA. 
HE DIED IN 1998. SINCE HIS DEATH, THE FAMILY HAS BEEN LOSING
ALOT OF MONEY DUE TO VINDICTIVE GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS
WHO ARE BENT ON DEALING WITH THE FAMILY. BASED ON
THIS THEREFORE, THE FAMILY HAS ASKED ME TO SEEK FOR A
FOREIGN PARTNER WHO CAN WORK WITH US AS TO MOVE OUT
THE TOTAL SUM OF US$75,000,000.00 ( SEVENTY FIVE
MILLION UNITED STATES DOLLARS ), PRESENTLY IN THEIR
POSSESSION. THIS MONEY WAS OF COURSE, ACQUIRED BY
THE LATE PRESIDENT AND IS NOW KEPT SECRETLY BY THE
FAMILY.THE SWISS GOVERNMENT HAS ALREADY FROZEN ALL THE
ACCOUNTS OF THE FAMILY IN SWITZERLAND, AND SOME
OTHER COUNTRIES WOULD SOON FOLLOW TO DO THE SAME. 
THIS BID BY SOME GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS TO DEAL WITH THIS
FAMILY HAS MADE IT NECESSARY THAT WE SEEK YOUR 
ASSISITANCE IN RECEIVING THIS MONEY AND
IN INVESTING IT ON BEHALF OF THE FAMILY.
 
THIS MUST BE A JOINT VENTURE TRANSACTION AND WE MUST
ALL WORK TOGETHER. SINCE THIS MONEY IS STILL CASH,
EXTRA SECURITY MEASURES HAVE BEEN TAKEN TO PROTECT
IT FROM THEFT OR SEIZURE, PENDING WHEN AGREEMENT IS
REACHED ON WHEN AND HOW TO MOVE IT INTO ANY OF YOUR
NOMINATED BANK ACCOUNTS. I HAVE PERSONALLY WORKED
OUT ALL MODALITIES FOR THE PEACEFUL CONCLUSION OF THIS
TRANSACTION. THE TRANSACTION DEFINITELY WOULD BE
HANDLED IN PHASES AND THE FIRST PHASE WILL INVOLVE
THE MOVING OF US$25,000,000.00( TWENTY FIVE MILLION
UNITED STATES DOLLARS ).
 
MY CLIENTS ARE WILLING TO GIVE YOU A REASONABLE
PERCENTAGE OF THIS MONEY AS SOON AS THE
TRANSACTION IS CONCLUDED. I WILL, HOWEVER, 
BASED ON THE GROUNDS THAT YOU ARE WILLING TO 
WORK WITH US AND ALSO ALL CONTENTIOUS ISSUES 
DISCUSSED BEFORE THE COMMENCEMENT OF THIS TRANSACTION. 
YOU MAY ALSO DISCUSS YOUR PERCENTAGE BEFORE WE START TO WORK. 
AS SOON AS I HEAR FROM YOU, I WILL GIVE YOU ALL NECESSARY DETAILS AS
TO HOW WE INTEND TO CARRY OUT THE WHOLE TRANSACTION.
PLEASE, DO NOT ENTERTAIN ANY FEARS,AS ALL NECESSARY
MODALITIES ARE IN PLACE, AND I ASSURE YOU OF ALL
SUCCESS AND SAFETY IN THIS TRANSACTION.PLEASE, 
THIS TRANSACTION REQUIRES ABSOLUTE CONFIDENTIALITY AND
YOU WOULD BE EXPECTED TO TREAT IT AS SUCH UNTIL 
THE FUND ARE MOVED OUT OF THIS COUNTRY.
PLEASE, YOU WILL ALSO IGNORE THIS LETTER AND RESPECT
OUR TRUST IN YOU BY NOT EXPOSING THIS TRANSACTION, 
EVEN IF YOU ARE NOT INTERESTED.
 
I LOOK FORWARD TO WORKING WITH YOU.
 
THANK YOU.
 
TRULY YOURS,
 
AHMED COLE ESQ.
