FROM: THE DESK OF DR. ROY LAWSON.
NIGERIAN GAS COMPANY PLC. LAGOS NIGERIA

ATTN: MY DEAR GOOD FRIEND,

FIRST AND FOREMOST, I MUST SOLICIT FOR YOUR

CONFIDENCE IN THIS TRANSACTION BY VIRTUE OF ITS NATURE

BEING UTTERLY CONFIDENTIAL.


I AM DR. ROY LAWSON, THE DIRECTOR OF FINANCE FOR

THE NIGERIAN GAS COMPANY PLC.

I CAME TO KNOW OF YOU IN MY SEARCH FOR A RELIABLE AND

REPUTABLE PARTNER TO HANDLE THIS CONFIDENTIAL

TRANSACTION, WHICH INVOLVES A HUGE SUM OF MONEY TO BE

ENTRUSTED IN THE HAND OF A FOREIGNER.



THE TRUTH OF THE MATTER IS THAT, A FOREIGNER BY NAME,

LATE ENGINEER JOHN ANDERSON AN AMERICAN CITIZEN, WHO

WAS AN OIL MERCHANT WITH THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT OF

NIGERIA, BEFORE HIS DEATH THREE YEARS AGO IN A

GHASTLY AUTO ACCIDENT, DEPOSITED THE TOTAL SUM OF

$12,200,000 (TWELVE MILLION, TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND

UNITED STATES OF AMERICAN DOLLARS) WITH US HERE IN

NIGERIA AT THE NIGERIAN GAS COMPANY PLC. LAGOS,

BEING PAYMENT FOR LIFTING OF GAS PRODUCTS FOR RE-SELL

IN THE AMERICAN MARKET.

UPON HIS DEATH THIS SAID SUM OF MONEY HAS BEEN LYING

IN THE CREDIT OF HIS ACCOUNT WITH US AND IS EXPECTED

TO BE CLAIMED BY MR JOHN ANDERSON`S NEXT OF KIN.



SINCE HIS DEATH, FERVENT VALUABLE EFFORTS, HAVE BEEN

MADE BY THE NIGERIAN GAS COMPANY PLC, TO GET IN TOUCH

WITH ANY OF LATE ANDERSON'S FAMILY BUT TO NO AVAIL. IT

IS BECAUSE OF OUR INABILITY TO LOCATE MR ANDERSON`S

NEXT OF KIN, THAT THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE

COMPANY ARE CONTEMPLATING THAT THE FUNDS WOULD BE

CONVERTED TO THE COMPANY'S FUND IF CLAIM IS NOT MADE

BY ENGR. ANDERSON`S NEXT OF KIN BEFORE OUR ANNUAL

GENERAL MEETING COMING UP IN JUNE THIS YEAR 2003.



ALL THAT IS REQUIRED FROM YOU NOW, IS TO ACT AS THE

NEXT OF KIN, TO THE LATE ENGR. JOHN ANDERSON, AS THE

MODALITIES SHALL BE WORKED OUT, TO FACILITATE THE

RELEASE OF $12.2 M TO ANY BODY THAT WILL STAND FIRMLY

AS THE NEXT OF KIN TO THE LATE ENGINEER WITHIN THE

STIPULATED TIME. THE FUNDS WILL BE SUCCESSFULLY

RELEASED TO YOU, AND IT WILL BE JUSTIFIABLY PRESENTED

AS HAVING BEEN PAID TO THE NEXT OF KIN WHICH WE ASSUME

TO BE YOU. YOUR INTEREST WILL BE PROTECTED AS

NECESSARY DOCUMENTATION WILL BE PROVIDED CERTIFYING

YOU, AS THE RIGHTFUL BENEFICIARY AND ADEQUATE

PERCENTAGES (%) SCHEDULED FOR MUTUAL BENEFITS ARE

INDICATED BELOW:



( 1 ) NEXT OF KIN WHICH IS YOU, -- 30%

( 2 ) MYSELF, THE ORIGINATOR -- 60%

( 3 ) 10% INCIDENTAL EXPENSES THAT MIGHT BE INCURRED

IN THE COURSE OF THIS TRANSACTION.



NOTE THAT ALL MODALITIES NECESSARY FOR THE RELEASE OF

THE FUNDS HAVE BEEN PERFECTED AND THE TRANSACTION IS

100% RISK FREE, AS NO TRACE WILL BE FOUND AFTER THE

SUCCESSFUL COMPLETION OF THE TRANSACTION.


I AM WAITING FOR YOUR PROMPT RESPONSE.


BEST REGARDS

DR. ROY LAWSON.
