Dear,
I AM making this contact with you based on the reliable
information available to us concerning your reputation and
well-organized Company (at our Chamber of Commerce and
industry).The information is so positive as to convince us
that you would be capable to provide us with a solution to
a money transfer of Two hundred million,
United States Dollars (US$200M
We are members of a special Committee set up for the
review
and award of contracts by the department of Nigeria
Petroleum and Mineral Resources.Our status ranks from
Ministerial post down to Directors-General. This
Committee is principally mandated by the new Civilian
Government to review the bogus and the over-inflated
Contracts awarded since 1993 to May 1999, under the
regimes
of the former heads of state of Nigeria - Late General
Sani
Abacha who died in office in June, 1998 and his successor
General Abdulsalam Abubakar who relinquished power in May,
1999.In the course of our duty, we have so far been able
to
recover about US$135,000,000.00 (One Hundred and
Thirty-five Million United States Dollars) out of which we
have used our good offices to set aside the sum of
US$20,500,000.00 for our utilization.However as Civil
Servants, our code of conduct strictly prohibits us from
operating or running a foreign Account, hence we decided
to
contact you and ask for your assistance. Together with
some
of the top officials of the Nigerian National Petroleum
Cooperation (NNPC), and the Federal Ministry of Finance,
we
plan to transfer this amount of money into an oversea
Account by awarding a non existent Contract from our
parastatal (NNPC) to you, to perfect the transfer. What we
need from you, is to provide a very vital Account into
which the funds will be transfered. The trust reposed on
you at this juncture is enormous.In return, we have agreed
to offer you 40% of the transferred sum, while 10% shall be
set aside for incidental expenses. You must however note
that this transaction is subject to the following terms
and
conditions: Our conviction of your honesty and diligence
that you would treat this transaction with utmost secrecy
and confidentiality. That you will not sit on the fund when
finally gets into your Account.That the funds would be
transferred to an interest bearing Account where the
incidence of taxation would not exert a heavy toll.
I would like to assure you that I have carefully and
painstakingly made all arrangement to ensure actualization
of this transaction which will be concluded within a few
working days of the necessary information and details.
The nature of our communication is of utmost importance
hence you may reach me via my above
private email Address ;musawaziri2@zipmail.com.br
Best Regard,
Enger Musa Waziri
(Honorable Chairman).
