This is the first mail we received:

FIRST BANK PLC
TEL: 234-8033062755
FAX: 234-9-2721428

MY NAME IS DR.DICKSON EZE, I AM ONE OF THE SENIOR MANAGERS IN THE FIRST BANK PLC AND I WORK UNDER THE DIRECTOR OF FOREIGN EXCHANGE OPERATIONS (INTERNATIONAL REMITTANCE). I AM CONTACTING YOU PRESENTLY BECAUSE I NEED YOUR URGENT ASSISTANCE IN A BUSINESS TRANSACTION THAT WILL BE OF IMMENSE BENEFIT TO BOTH OF US.

I NEED TO TRANSFER SOME MONEY THAT HAS LONG BEEN DECLARED UNCLAIMED BY THE CHAIRMAN AND SOME MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF OUR BANK.THE MONEY IS THE CLOSING BALANCE OF ONE OF OUR BEST CUSTOMER, LATE ENGR. GEORGE BENSON. I WAS HIS PERSONAL ACCOUNT OFFICER BEFORE HE DIED. GEORGE BENSON WAS AN AMERICAN CITIZEN AND THE AMOUNT INVOLVED IS $20.5M USD (TWENTY MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND UNITED STATES OF AMERICA DOLLARS) HE WAS AN INTERNATIONAL CONTRACTOR WHO SUPPLY AND INSTAL EQUIPMENTS WITH A COMPANY CALLED CREEK CONTRACTORS LIMITED.NOBODY HAS EVER COME FORWARD TO MAKE A STATEMENT OF CLAIM BECAUSE HE DOES NOT HAVE A NEXT OF KIN.

I HAVE DISCOVERED HOWEVER THAT THE CHAIRMAN AND THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS WANT TO CLAIM THESE MONEY FOR THEIR OWN PERSONAL USE. THOUGH, MY COLLEAGUES AND I HAVE MADE SEVERAL ATTEMPTS AT LOCATING ANY PERSON OR PERSONS THAT COULD BE REMOTEDLY RELATED TO ENGR.GEORGE BENSON, THOUGH, WE HAVE BEEN DOING THIS FOR THE PAST FOUR YEARS AND NOBODY HAS COME FORWARD FOR THE MONEY DUE TO THE FACT THAT THERE IS NO NEXT OF KIN.

I AM HEREBY SOLICITING FOR YOUR ASSISTANCE TO PROVIDE ME WITH A PRIVATE FOREIGN ACCOUNT WHERE THIS MONEY CAN BE DEPOSITED FOR OUR USAGE AND ALSO FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE LESS PRIVILEDGED IN THE WORLD. I HEREBY SUGGEST THAT PROVIDING A GOOD ACCOUNT WILL MAKE YOU HAVE 30% FOR YOUR HELP, 10% FOR THE LESS PRIVILEDGE IN THE WORLD LIKE CHARITY HOMES OR MOTHERLESS BABIES HOME ETC.AND 5% FOR ANY EXPENSES INCURED FROM YOUR SIDE OR MY SIDE. THIS WILL BE BETTER THAN ALLOWING OUR CHAIRMAN AND THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS TO ACQUIRE THESE MONEY FOR THEIR PERSONAL USAGE.WE HAVE WORKED OUT A PERFECT PLAN TO STAND YOU AS A NEXT OF KIN TO ENGR.GEORGE BENSON AND I WILL ALSO PROVIDE YOU WITH ALL THE INFORMATIONS YOU WILL NEED TO ANSWER ANY SECURITY QUESTION THAT MAY COME UP.IF YOU FOLLOW MY INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY, EVERYTHING WILL BE COMPLETED WITHIN TWO WEEKS. THEREFORE, CONTACT ME ON MY PRIVATE PHONE NO.234-8033062755 OR FAX NO.234-9-2721428 OR EMAIL:travelegg@eircom.net

THANKS FOR YOUR KIND CO-OPERATIONS,

DR.DICKSON EZE.

This is how we answered. The name Marq Bellini is totally invented (it happens that I have a Marq friend down to www.securitynewsportal.com)

Hi there, I might be interested in the deal. Can you be a little more precise explaining me the details ?

Regards

Marq Bellini
