Subject: Mr.Ani Atiku,

I Am Mr. Ani Atiku, Director, Foreign Remittance Department- Wema bank of Nigeria. I am contacting based on a recent meeting held with the Office of the Presidency, Federal Republic of Nigeria in conjunction with the Federal Ministry of Finance and Senate committee Budget Planning Unite, National House of Assembly-Federal Republic of Nigeria. After the meeting, it was agreed that you will receive your inheritance fund of Five Million United States Dollars Only {US$5,000,000.00} out of your long complicated outstanding payment.

Why we did this, is because according to information gathered from the banks computer, you have been waiting for a long time to receive your inheritance without success, as I found out that you have almost met all the statutory requirements of the CBN in respect of your inheritance payment.

I am willing to help you get your money but please for security reasons do not tell anybody that you have your money until you receive cash at your doorstep.

This is something we want to avoid because the boxes were padded with machine. We told the courier service that the boxes contains photographic and film materials and when opened will loose its efficacy. We did not declare money because courier service does not carry money.

In your subsequence response I shall send you the details of the courier company which will be in charge of the delivery to your location.

You are required to re-confirm the under listed details as soon as possible for onward shipment of your over due contract fund:

Your full name:

Private telephone number:

Choice of address {where you wish the consignment delivered}:

God is with us as we wait for your reply.

Yours faithfully,

Mr. Ani Atiku
