FROM ADE BELLO
UNION BANK OF NIG. PLC. 
CORPORATE HEADQUOTERS 
MARINA LAGOS NIGERIA 


Dear Sir, 


I am ADE BELLO a senior Manager at UNION BANK OF NIG. PLC. here in 
Nigeria. Though we have not related in the past, I am compelled by 
the important nature of the opportunity at hand to contact you so 
that we can explore avenues 
for cooperation in this mutually rewarding project. 


A very wealthy deceased customer of our bank, Mr. Talbot Camara - a 
Sierra Leonean and one time minister for natural resources in that 
country left some large amount of money in a special domiciliary 
account with our bank since his death in 2000. In his Will which has 
just been made available to us by his Lawyer and family, he shared 
his other wealth 
located in some other bank accounts judiciously among his family 
members and local wel! fare organizations, but requested specifically 
that the money in this account with our bank be allocated 100% to a 
foreign organization or individual trustee who will utilize it 
strictly for charity. 


In this Will also, he gave sole authority for the nomination of this 
foreign trustee to his personal Lawyer - Mr. Donald Lukeman and the 
Head of the Domiciliary Account Department of my bank, which position 
I am occupying at the moment. So, the choice of a foreigner for this 
project is in strict compliance with the WILL of the deceased account 
holder who believes that the fund will be better utilized by a 
foreign trustee since there will be no 
interference or manipulation by local authorities. 


Due to the exigencies of Nigerian legislation, there became the need 
to acquire a Letter Of Administration 
from the Nigerian Probate Registry to give legal impetus to the 
execution of this Will in Nigeria. For this reason, the execution ! of 
this WILL could not materialize until last month when the court in 
Nigeria issued the final Letters Of Administration. 


Having secured this Letter Of Administration from the court, the 
authority for the appointment of an administrator for this fund now 
lies solely in my hands and that of the Attorney. Both of us (Myself 
and the Attorney) have met several times over this issue and have 
agreed mutually among ourselves to transact this inheritance in a way 
that will be beneficial to 
us, and the foreign trustee. 


In fact, we have decided to utilize only 40% of this fund for charity 
while reserving the rest for ourselves. After deducting the overall 
cost (both foreign and local) incurred in executing this project, 
whatever balance left from the outstanding 60% will be shared equally 
between myself, the Attorney and the foreign partner who will assist 
us to receive this money as the appointed trustee. 


Also, the foreign partner will receive in addition to his share, the 
40% earmarked for Charity under the strict agreement that this part 
must be spent for Charity through him or his organization in 
compliance with the wish of the late account holder. 


My reason for contacting you therefore, is to solicit for your 
cooperation in this project so that your name or that of your company 
can be used as the appointed foreign trustee to whose care this money 
will be 
transferred. 


However, it may require that you shall be physically present here in 
Lagos, Nigeria with my assistance to 
complete the necessary procedures. There is absolutely no risk 
involved as we have the copy of the Will and Letters of 
Administration to back the transaction. But you must also understand 
that a transaction of this nature and magnitude requires absolute 
secrecy so that no one else hears about it especially, our mutual 
agreement to utilize and 
disburse this fund as s! tated in the paragraph above. 


If you accept to offer your cooperation for this project, please 
reach me urgently through my email address to enable me give you the 
full schedule of the transaction. You should also provide me with 
your private telephone and fax numbers for intimate communication. 


Best Regards, 

ADE BELLO
