Subject: Dear Friend Confidential Business Proposal
Attention
The President/CEO
Confidential Business Proposal
How are you today? and how is your family? Having consulted with my colleagues and based on the information gathered from the Internet about you, I have the privilege to request for your assistance to transfer the sum of 21,500,000.00 (Twenty one million, five hundred thousand United States dollars) into your accounts.
The above sum resulted from an over-invoiced contract by past government that have been executed with no existing contractor, commissioned to be paid by the previous government official for about some years ago by a foreign contractor.
This action was however intentional and since then the fund approval has been in a suspense since the death of the former head of state General Sanni Abacha. We are now ready to transfer the fund overseas with this opportunity as a member of Debt reconciliation Committee to inspect all concerned debt by Federal Republic of Nigeria to all foreign contractors.In this regards I solicit your partnership to front you as a foreign contractor and the executor of the contract whose contract entitlement is long due to be paid.
This is where you come in. It is important to inform you that as civil servants, we are forbidden to operate a foreign account; that is why we require your assistance. The total sum will be shared as follows: 50% for us, 40% for you and 10% for local and international expenses incident to the transfer.
The transfer is risk free on both sides. I am a member of debt reconciliation committee (DRC) the newly commissioned panel to review all contract awarded to foreigners (as a result I discover the apportioned contract was not existing one). Please If you find this proposal acceptable, we shall require the following documents:
(a) Your banker's name, company name that you are to front as the executed company (b) Your private telephone and fax numbers -- for confidentiality and easy communication.
I shall communicate to you more details on the modalities to get this done, along with a breakdown explaining comprehensively about the transfer.
The business will take us (8) working days to accomplish. From the date of the recommendation from (DRC).
Also note that with my capacity as a member of the debt recovery commitee, i want to let you know that i can as well send the funds through the assistance of the central bank Governor proffessor charles soludo, through diplomatic means and coded to any one of our offshore offices in America, Netherlands, The United kingdom, India and saudi Arabia, for you to pick up easily.
So if you can assist in this regard, get in touch and lets get started.
Waiting in anticipation.
Best Regards
Morris Green
