l am Prince. Eric Uba, A Civil Servant in the Ministry of Health.l know this proposal will come to you as a surprise because we have not met before either physically or through correspondence. I got your contact address through Nigerian internet association/ chamber of commerce and have no doubt in your ability to handle this business proposal involving huge sum of money.
THE SUBJECT: My father, Chief Frank Uba (Now Late) was the Royal Head of my community, ELEME (an oil rich town) in Nigeria. My community produces 5.8% of the total crude oil production in Nigeria but 0.5% of the dollar value of each barrel is paid to my father as royalty by the Federal Government of Nigeria. My father was also the Chairman of ELEME Special Oil Trust Fund. In his position as the Royal head and Chairman of the Oil Trust Fund, He made a lot of money which
he left for me as the only heir to inherit after his death. The total money my father left behind for me is US$12M (Twelve Million United States Dollars only). This Money was originated from the accumulated royalties between 1976-2001.
Due to poor banking system in Nigeria and political instability as a result of past Military rules (1985-1999) , He deposited this Money in cash in a Strong Room/ "VAULTS" with a private SECURITY COMPANY Pending when he would finish arrangement to transfer it abroad through diplomatic courier services with the security company. He was planning this when he died late last year of Heart attack.
THE PROPOSAL: Just before my father died he called my attention to the money and charged me to look for a foreigner who would assist me in the claiming this fund for proper investment abroad. Therefore l would be very grateful if you could
accept to help me achieve this great objective. I promise to give you a 30% of the total funds immediatetly after claiming it from the security company as a compensation for your assistance. 10% would be set aside to take care of all expenses we may incure during this transaction while 60% will be for me and my family which i will use for investment purposes specifically in your country.
To indicate your interest, Contact me urgently and confidentially I will inform you the roles you will play in this business. My lawyer Barrister David williams will prevail on the security company and secure All the legal Documents that will cover this FUND in your name and these documents will be send to you as soon as we agreed together.
