 MADAM, 

I am Dr. Mrs. Mariam Abacha, wife of the Late  NigerianHead of State, Gereral Sani Abacha who died on  8th ofJune 1998 while still on duty. I am contacting  you inview of the fact we will be of great assistance  toeach other like wise developing acordial buiness  relationship. 

I currently have the sum of Fifty Million UnitedStates  Dollars (US$50,000,000) cash, which I intend touse for  investment purposes specifically in your country. This  money came as a payback contract deal between my late  husband and Russian firm on ourcountrys Multi-Billion  Dollar Ajaokuta Steel Plant. 

The Russian partner returned my husbands share  ofUS$50,000,000.00 USD after the death of my husband  and lodged it with a Security Company in AFRICA of  which I am the Beneficiary. Right now the new civilian  government have intensified their probe on my husbands  financial resources and they revoked our licenses that  allows us to own a financial and Oil Company. I have  since declared myself and my family Bankruptcy. No  record ever existed concerning the money neither the  money tranceable by the Government because there is no  documentation showing that we  received the money from the Russians. 

Due to the current situation in the country and  government attitude towards my familly, it has become  guite impossible for me to make use of this money  within, and outside, since my movement is restricted  by the government now. Thus I seek assistance to  transfer this money out of this security company in  Europe through our family representative - EDWARD  ALIYU, (SAN) To enable us discuss in details about  this transaction please contact him on ,Fax Number  234-1-7596793 

 WHAT YOU ARE EXPECTED TO DO                                           
I will transfer the ownership of the consingment /  boxes containing the cash to you and issue you a power  of attorney through my Lawyer. With these document you  will travel to AFRICA and claim the money as my proxy  from the Security Company. The entire operation is  risk free since it is only you and me and my Lawyer  that knows the details of the money.After you must  have taken the money to your country where it is save  my Lawyer will then meet you in your country to use my  share of the money for investment. 

Bearing in mind that your assistance is needed to  transfer this fund, I propose a commission of  30%(Thirty Persent) of the total sum to you for the  expected services and assistance.Your urgent response  is highly needed so as to stop futher contact. All  correspondence must be by fax 234-1-7596793, or  e-mail. I must use this opportunity to implore you to  exercise the utmost indulgence to keep this matter  extraordinarily confidential whatever your decision  while I await your prompt response.
