Regarding Mr. Larry Kidd

Dear Friend,

I am Erskine Bowles, the Personal Attorney to Mr. Larry Kidd, A
foreigner who used to work with Mekon Associates Company in Nigeria ,
On the 4th of May 2015, my client, his wife And their three children
were involved in a car accident along Port Harcourt Road. All
occupants of the vehicle unfortunately lost their lives.

Since then I have made several enquirers to your embassy to locate any
of my clients extended relatives, this has also proved unsuccessful.
After these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to trace his
relatives over the Internet, to locate any member of his family but of
no avail, hence I contacted you.

I'm contacting you to assist me in repatriating the money left behind
by my client before they get confiscated or declared serviceable by
the finance house where these huge deposits were lodged.

Actually, the African Banking Inco operation Plc (ABI), where the
deceased had an account valued at about US$50M (US$50,000,000.00) has
issued me a notice to provide the next of kin or have the account
confiscated within the next ten(10) official working days.

Since I have been unsuccessfully in locating the relatives for over
2years, now I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin to
the deceased, so that the proceeds of this account valued at US$50M
(US$50,000,000.00) can be paid to you and then you and I can share the
money. 55% to me and 40% to you, while 5% should be for expenses or
tax as your country government may require, I have all necessary legal
documents that can be used to back up any claim we may make.

Please include the following in your reply,

(1.) Your Name in full.
(2.) A reliable phone and Fax number
(3.) Occupation/Company Name (If any)
(4.) Residential/postal address
(5.) Your international passport (if any)

All I require from you is your honest co-operation to enable us see
this transaction through. I guarantee that this will be executed under
a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the
law. Please get in touch with me through my private mail Box:
[email protected] if you are willing to assist.

Best Regards.
DR. ERSKINE BOWLES (PHD)
