Virtue of its nature as being confidential. i am assuring you that all
Will be well at the end of the day. We have decided to contact you by
E-mail due to the urgency of this transaction.
Let me start by introducing myself properly to you. i am Mr. Rhodes
Anderson, group executive director, finance and account of NNPC formerly
in line with shell petroleum development cooperation in joint venture (NNPC/SPDC).
I came to know of you in my private search for a reliable and reputable
person to handle this confidential transaction, which involves the transfer
of the sum of thirty-five million United States dollars to a reliable account
abroad.
This amount was secured from excess oil sales from Nigeria crude oil.
The sum of $1.2 billion oil windfall was relieved by the NNPC and shell
petroleum development company for the month of august 2002.organisation
of petroleum exporting countries (OPEC) crude oil price was peg at $22.00
per barrel and fortunately for oil producing countries like Nigeria, there
was rises in oil price to about $27.00 and $28.00 per barrel and as a result
there was excess oil sales and I believe you would be aware of this rise
in Oil price in last two years.
Out of this $1.2 billion excess oil funds, my colleagues and myself
Because of our position in the account department of the NNPC and shell
Petroleum Development Company diverted the sum of thirty-five million
United state dollars we want to transfer into your account, which is in
the excess crude oil sales account with central bank of Nigeria.
To enable the bank transfer this us$35m secured into your bank account
You will be acting as one of our contractor and this money will be paid
In your favor. Note, the reason for the transfer of these thirty-five
Million us dollars into your account was because of our incapability as
Government officials to own a foreign account, as it is unlawful by law
In Nigeria as civil servants.
All the necessary documentation for the approval of this fund into your
Account will be taken good care of and this business is 100% risk free
As all the modalities for the smooth transfer of this fund into your
Account has been concluded already. My colleagues and I have agreed to
Offer you the percentage medium below:
We shall offer you 20%of the total money after successful lodging in to
Your account, 10% will be for expenses that may arise in the course of
The transfer, while 70% will be for me and my partners here. Which part
Of it will be for investment in your country strictly on your advice.
To enable us proceed with this business, you are required to send me
Your direct phone and fax numbers for verbal discussion.
