NIGERIAN SCAM LETTER FROM

WILLY WATARA

Dear,

I am Mr Willy Watara, the Manager of Bill and Exchange
at the Foreign Remittance Department of Banque
Internationale De L'Afique De L'Ouest.Abidjan (BIAO).

In my department I discovered an abandoned sum of
U.S$20.5M(Tweenty Million,Five Hundred Thousand U.S
Dollars.In an account that belongs to one of our
foreign customer,the late Mr Mark Billings, The Chief
executive officer of the MARK BILLING'S PETRO-CHEMICAL
TECHNICAL SUPPORT SERVICES ENGINEERING INC. who died
along with his entire family in a KLM/KANYA plane
crash in the year 2000 here in Abidjan that almost
took the whole life of the passengers on board.

Since then the bank has made several enquiries to
locate any of the clients extended relatives and was
proved unsuccessful.

Since then the bank has been expecting any of his next
of kin to come forward for the claim his money which
he deposited with the bank, because the bank cannot
release t he money unless somebody applies for it as
next of kin or relation to the deceased, quoting the
account details and all information concerning the
deposit,as indicated in our banking guidelines which I
will forward to you, but unfortunately since then no
one has ever come forward for the claim.

It is therefore upon this discovery that I and other
officials in my department now decided to make this
business proposal to you, in order to front you as the
next of kin and give you all the information needed
for applying for the release of the money to you as
the next of kin or relation to the deceased for safety
and subsequent disbursement since nobody is coming for
it and we don?t want this money to go into the Bank
treasury as unclaimed Bill.

The Banking law and guideline here stipulates that
if such money remained unclamed after three years, the

money will be transfered into the Bank treasury
account as uncla i med fund.

The request of foreigner as next of kin in this
bu siness is occasioned by the fact that the customer
was a foreigner and an Ivoirean cannot stand as next
of kin to a foreigner.We agree that 30% of this money
will be for you
as foreign partner, in respect to the provision of a
foreign account,10% will be set aside for expenses
incured during the business and 60 % would be for me
There after I will visit your country for disbursement
accoding to the percentages indicated.

Therefore for an immediate transfer of this fund to
you as arranged,you must apply first to the bank as
relations or next of kin of the deceased indicating
your bank name, your bank account number,your private
telephone and fax number for easy and effective
communication and lo cation where in the money will be
remitted .

Upon receipt of your reply indicating your interest, I
will send to you by fax or email the text of the
a pp lication, which you will forward to the bank
Account Department.

I will not fail to bring to your notice that this
transaction is hitch free and that you should not
entertain any atom of fear as all information the bank
will be asking from you for approving the claim of
credit in your favour, will be forwarded to you.

You should contact me immediately as soon as you
receive this letter.

Trusting to hear from you immediately.

Yours faithfully,

MR WILLY WATARA.
