From: Robert Kwame <dr_rtkwame0@yahoo.com>
Date: Fri, 30 Jun 2006 01:26:57 -0700 (PDT)
Subject: FROM DR.ROBERT KWAME, { ECOWAS CONTRACT CHAIRMAN SUB-HEAD, ACCAR GHANA}
Dear Friend,
I am Dr.Robert Kwame, the chairman, contract awarding and tender committee of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) with sub-head in Accra -Ghana.
Forgive my indignation, if this letter comes to you as a surprise and if it might offend you without your prior consent. I got your contact during my search for a reliable person to entrust this hugeproject with. My colleagues and I, involved in this project have agreed to seek your mutual partnership into this huge money transfer project. We wish to transfer the sum of (nine million three hundred thousand United State dollars)US$9.300,000.00 into your personal or company account.
This Fund originated from over invoiced contract bills, awarded by us for the supply of Ammunitions, Hard wares and Soft ware, Pharmaceutical and Medical equipments, to the Ecomog Peace keeping Mission, in the just ended Liberia and Sierra-Leone civil wars.
This over invoiced sum was deliberately hatched out and carefully protected with all attendant lope holes sealed off. It was our consensus to seek your assistance to provide us with the facilities to transfer this money out of West Africa. This is born out of our belief in the non-stable economy and spurious political nature of this sub-region.
The original executors of the contracts have been dully paid through ECOBANK. This over invoiced sum is currently being suspended in an escrow bank account awaiting claims by any foreign person/company we may front as the beneficiary of the fund. Based on the law and ethics of our service to ECOWAS, we as civil servants are not allowed to operate a foreign account.
This is the more reason why we needed your assistance to provide an account that can hold this funds when transferred to your country. It is however agreed, as the person providing the account to secure the funds in your country, you are offered 15% of the total sum as commission, 80% will be held on trust for us, while 5% is set aside to reimburse expenses incurred in the course of executing the project.
The project is expected to be successfully completed within 14 days, if you accord us the maximum cooperation needed from you. As with the case of all sensitive projects, we solicit for your unreserved confidentiality and utmost secret in this project. We hope to retire peacefully and leave an honorable business life afterwards. There is no risk involved.
Alternatively, you can send to me your private phone number so that I can call you. As soon as I hear from you I shall send to you details of the Fund so that you can verify it by yourself, before proceeding.
You can contact me through this email address:
dr_robert1313@hotmail.com
With regards,
Dr.Robert.
