It is just funny to read (I love junk email)

From: The Desk of Efetobor Greg,
Senior Manager: Union Bank PLC,
36 Marina Street,
Lagos.
Dear friend,
First, I must solicit your confidence in this
transaction. This is by virtue of its nature being
utterly confidential and top secret. We have decided
to contact you due to the urgency of this
transaction, as we have been reliably informed of your discretness, trustworthy and
ability to carry out
legitimate business.
THE PROPOSITION: A foreigner and American, Late Engr.
james Walker, an Oil merchant with the Federal
Government of Nigeria, until his death on an Egypt Air
Flight #990, which crashed into the Atlantic Ocean
on October 31, 1999, banked with us at UNION BANK PLC
Lagos and had a closing
balance of US$10,000,000.00 (Ten Milion United States
Dollars Only) as at the end of September, 2000.
crash in 1999:
Valuable efforts have been made by the bank to get in
touch with any of the Walker's family or relative,
but to no avail. The only Next of Kin address that
was given to the bank by Late Engr. Neal Walker was
at Sierra Loene, West Africa, in the person of Mrs.
Mabel Brain. However, the said address was destroyed
during the last rebel crisis in Sierra Leone and the
woman was reportedly dead together with other United
Nations Officials. It is because of the perceived
impossibility of locating a relative of the Late
Engr. James Walker (since they never gave birth to a
child) that the bank is making plans to conceed the
said amount to the Defence Ministry for the
procurement of weapons of war. In order to avert
this ugly situation, few of
my colleagues and I have decided to contact you and
seek your permission to have you stand as Next of
Kin to Late Engr. James Walker so that the total
amount of US$10 Million Dollars will be processed
and released in your favour into your personal
account.
All documents and proofs to enable you get this fund will be carefully worked out.
We have secured from
the probate, an order of Madamus, to locate any of
the deceased beneficiary. Be rest assured that this
transaction is risk-free. Also, your share for
offering to assist us and provide the receiving
account will be 20% of the total sum, while 80% will
be for my colleagues and I, which also would be in
your account for safe custody and probable future
investment purpose in your country.
As soon as we receive an acknowledgement of your
willingness to accept our proposal, we shall
furnish you with further details as we concluded all
arrangements to have the money transferred to you
within 7 working days from the date of commencement.
If this proposal is acceptable to you, then furnish us
with your most confidential telephone and fax
numbers at which time an application for the fund
release will be forwarded in your favour.
Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation.
Regards,
Efetobor Greg
