“Niyi Adeseun” addresses me as “Dear Friend”.  A quick read of his “proposal” tells me he claims to be manager of a bank, he had a rich client who died, leaving millions which our scammer – sorry  dishonest bank manager – wants to get his hands on with your help.  Nothing new about this story.  It’s all lies.  This is a scammer who wants to get his or her hands on your money by charging you fees.  Don’t reply.
