Sir,
It is with trust and confidence that I write this urgent business
assistance to you. I am a principal staff with Oil & Gas Company {BG GROUP} in United Kingdom .I have been assigned by two of my colleagues to seek for a trust worthy foreign partner who will assist us in the
transfer of the sum of gbp12,000,000.00(Twelve million us pounds) only into a safe foreign account pending on our arrival in your country for sharing and utilization of the fund with the owner of the account.
On the 20th of January 2014 our corporation, the British gas plc (bg group), awarded a contract of gbp168, 000, 000, 00(one hundred and sixty eight million pounds) only, to a foreign firm for the supply of some equipment valued gbp156, 000, 000, 00 (one hundred and fifty six million pounds) only. But I and my colleagues being members of the contract awarding committee over-inflated the contract to the tune of gbp168,000,000.00 (one hundred and sixty eight million pounds) only, with the intention of sharing the remaining balance
12,000,000.00 (Twelve million pounds) only among ourselves.
The contract has been successfully executed and the actual contractors had been paid their gbp156,000,000.00 (one hundred and fifty six million pounds) in full leaving a balance of gbp12,000,000.00 which we now want to transfer out of the country in our favor for disbursement among ourselves. Meanwhile I and two of my colleagues have agreed that if you/your company can act as the beneficiary of this fund ,
you will retain 30% of the total fund, for the assistance rendered, while we would retain 60% of the total and the balance of 10% of the total fund will be set aside for the off-setting of all expenses that might be incurred by both parties during the fund transfer process. We are requesting you to co-operate with us and provide a convenient account number in a designated bank where this fund can be safely transferred; we intend to come over there on the completion of the fund transfer to secure our own share of the fund.
Please, note that we have been careful and have worked out all the modalities for a smooth transfer of this fund to your chosen designated account before contacting you .We would therefore not want you to expose this proposal to any body for the purpose of security and its confidential nature. Please be rest assured that this transaction is 100% risk-free. If this proposal is acceptable by you, please contact me through my personal e-mail address for further information on this transaction. Note that the particular nature of your companys business is irrelevant to this transaction.Note that your favorable reply is urgently needed. This information is highly confidential and urgent.
What I need from you is to front and play the role as a foreign subcontractor that supplied construction equipment to BG GROUP, but has not received payment. We will handle and guarantee smooth validation of payment once we apply for payment using the appropriate contract reference number as stated in the Project log book and Deed of Assignment.
To enable us proceed with documentation process, we will need reconfirmation of the following information's.
1) Your Full Name
2) Your Full Address
3) Occupation/Position
4) Telephone number to reach you at all time.
