Ignore it if you have received any mail or offer from Nigeria. Might be a scam. Take care, don't lose your money.

Here is a link to a list of Nigerian Banks: http://www.uknigeriabusinesses.com/services/bank.htm

Have you received an e-mail from someone claiming that they need your assistance that there is a large amount of money belonging to someone , who died and they have been unable to contact any family members and they would like for you to pose as a relative to claim this money from this bank where they either work or have a friend that works in this bank?

If you receive an e-mail that resembles anything like this do not respond. It is what is known as a 419 scam or NIgerian e-mail scam. People who have responded to letters or e-mails of this sort have actually lost their lives or at least been cleaned out of all of their life's savings. Lagos Nigeria is the worst for this type of scam. http://www.news24.com/News24/Africa/News/0,6119,2-11-1447_1563269,00.html

There is a bank called First Bank, but it doesn't mean that the Email you received really came from one working at that bank.

It could be .. it actually probably is .. a scam.
