From: Bernard Nwazojie
Ben Nwazojie & Associate.
Good day,
I humbly wish to seek your assistance in a matter that is very important
and needs utmost trust and confidence. Kindly accept my apology for contacting
you this way and forgive me if this is not acceptable to you.
I am Bernard Nwazojie, a business consultant and close confidant of one
of Nigeria's senior government officer. The wife of a former top government
official who served in the past military regime in Nigeria and currently
having a face-off with the authorities wishes to move out of Africa the
sum of US$15 million which was deposited by her husband in a Private Security
Company here in Nigeria. She wishes to invest the aforementioned sum in
viable investment oversea.
For obvious reasons, my client does not wish to place this fund with established
financial institution in the family's name for security reason. It is her
desire that this deal be handled as quietly as possible without possibility
of any leakage to the public or Government as they have suffered greatly
since the inception of this present administration. She has therefore empowered
and instructed me to look for a reliable foreigner who can arrange and receive
the money and assist to invest part of the fund properly for the family.
If you agree to receive this fund on behalf of my client and her family
and to help manage part of the fund, I shall arrange for the release of
this sum of US$15 Million to you. If you meet my requirement and upon a
favourable response from you, I shall let you know how you will receive
it. Your commission shall be down payment of 15% of the total sum. And annual
5% of the after tax returns on investment you are to manage for the first
five years. Thereafter, the terms shall be varied.
If you are capable and willing to participate in this transaction, reach
me by e-mail. Hence, you are to furnish me with your direct phone number
for further briefings. In any case, please keep it tight secret.
GOD bless. As I await your response.
Best regards.
Bernard Nwazojie
