Subject: RE: CONFIDENTIAL
TRANSFER OF US$75 MILLION (SEVENTY-FIVE MILLION UNITED STATES DOLLARS)
Thanks for your prompt response to my letter of business proposal and I wish
to state that this is the beginning of a good business relationship between
both families. This mutual proposed transaction is quite a very sensitive
one and is meant to be strictly confidential for the mutual benefit of the
both parties. The transaction in question is also legally sound, legitimate
and risk-free which gives the parties involved the rights to enforce their
rights in case of any breach which is not likely to occur hence we have
common objective and defined terms in sharing the proceeds as thus: - 25%
for you, 5% for any arising contingencies during the course of this
transaction and 70% for me.
Having indicated your interest, I wish to intimate you that the said fund is
an over-invoiced contract executed for and on behalf of the Nigeria National
Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) by a foreign company years back. The contract
has been completed by the original contractor and the original contract sum
paid. Since we are still in active service it is against our code of conduct
bureau to operate foreign bank account hence we have concluded all
arrangements to present you as the sub-contractor to the original
contractor’s and transfer the over invoiced sum of USD75M to your account
for our mutual benefits.
In order to facilitate this transaction, the following information is
required from you;
1. Your company name and contact address.
2. Your direct phone and fax numbers.
3. Your receiving bank name, address and account number.
4. First 2 pages of your Int’l Passport or Driver’s License.
The above details will enable us apply formerly to the appropriate
authorities for the release of the said fund in your favor and as soon as
the payment is approved, we shall proceed to meet with you in your country
for disbursement and subsequent investment plans. I guarantee that this will
be executed under legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any
breach of the law, as I will use my position to secure approvals and
guarantee the successful execution of this transaction. Thereafter, we
planned to destroy all related documents of this transaction to avoid any
trace after we have successfully transferred the money to your nominated
bank account.
Consider this and get back at us as soon as possible. Finally, it is our
humble prayer that the information as contained herein is accorded the
necessary attention, urgency as well as the secrecy it deserves.
Yours truly,
Dr. Kayode Naiyeju.
