Dear Sir,
I am Echi Adama, Chairman of Contract Award and Verification Panel set up
by the Guinean Ministry of Aviation. I got your contact from the net
during my personal search, after thorough deliberations, my colleagues and
I decided to contact you for a very
confidential business transaction of mutual benefit During our
verification
exercise, we came across an over-invoiced contract (Contract
No:(FMA/PED/1473/98).
This contract was awarded in July, 1998 and completed in August,2000, and
the original contractor has since been paid his contract sum leaving the
over-invoiced sum of nine (8$) Million, United States Dollars:
This amount have been left floating in our account with the federation
bank, until our recent discovery. My colleagues and I have decided to seek
for the assistance of a
reliable foreign partner into whose account the fund will be transferred
into for our own use. If this proposal is acceptable to you, a "Deed of
Transfer" of the above contract will be obtained on your behalf, to
empower you as the legal beneficiary of the contract and the sum to be
transferred. All necessary and relevant documents will be procured for
the release and transfer of the fund into your nominated account.
An application for foreign exchange allocation will be made on your behalf
from my office to the federal ministry of finance (FMF) and the
federation bank for the subsequent release and transfer of the fund into
your nominated account. Be informed that we are working in collaboration
with top officials of the federal ministry of finance and the federation
bank, who will assist us in the transfer of the fund. With your
cooperation the success of this transaction is guaranteed.
We have agreed to compensate you with 25% of the total sum, 70% will be
for me and my colleagues here, while the remaining 5% have been mapped-out
for miscellaneous expenses that might be incurred by both parties during
the course of this transaction. All things being equal, this transaction
will be concluded within 6 working days upon the day of receipt of your
response. You are required to email us your nominated bank account details
and your direct telephone and fax numbers.
Please treat this transaction with top priority and remember to keep it
as confidential as possible. As soon as we receive your response, more
details about how to proceed will be given to you.
Best Regards,
Echi Adama
