Default fake or something ?

Dear Friend,
I am Dr. Grace Lawal (phd) bank manager of South Africa Reserve Bank in South Africa. I have an urgent and very confidencial business proposition for you. On June 6,1997,a foreign oil consultant/contractor, Mr. Barry Kelly made a numbered time (fixed) deposit for twelve calander months, valued of US$ 25,000000.OO (TWENTY-FIVE MILLION US DOLLARS) in my branch.
Upon maturity, I discovered from his contractor employers; the South Africa National Petroleum Corporation that Mr. Barry Kelly died from an automobile accident. On further investigation, I found out that he died without making a will and all attempts to trace his next-of-kin was fruitless. This sum of US$ 25 million has carefully been moved out of my bank to a security company for safe-keeping. No one has come forward to claim it.
Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you to come forward as the claimant( owner) of this money deposited in the security company; in two trunk boxes, though the security company does not know the contents of the boxes as I tagged them to be photographic materials for export. I want to present as owner of the boxes in the security company, so can be able to make a claim through the help of my attorney. This is simple, I will like you to provide immediately your full names and address, through which my attorney can prepare the necessary documents to put you as the owner for a claim. the money will be moved out for share in ratio of 70%( for me) to 30%(for you) respectively.
Thanks and God Bless.
Dr Grace Lawal(phd)

Nobody is ever in your entire life or wildest dreams going to use your personal savings account to route money and give you a percentage.
