transfering of money overseas for the Late head of state of our
country, Nigeria – Late Gen. Sani Abacha deposited the sum of USD$9.7m
[Nine Million Seven Hundred Thousand United States Dollars] in a
Financial Institution in Europe for herself, with the hope of
transferring it to her country as soon as she is on leave.

locate any of my clients extended relatives this has also proved
unsuccessful. After these several unsuccessful attempts, We decided to
trace her last name over the internet, to locate any member of her
family hence I contacted you. We have contacted you to assist in
repartrating the money and property left behind by our client before
they get confisicated or declared unserviceable by the Financial
Institution where this huge deposits were lodged particularly, the

3 years now we seek your consent to present you as the next of kin of
