REQUEST FOR URGENT BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP

First I must solicit your strictest condfidentiality in this transaction.  This is by virture as being utterly confidential and "TOP SECRET". I got your contact from an International marketing Journal featuring different personalities/products of export.

We are top officials of the Federal Government of Nigeria Contracts Review Panel who are interested in importation of goods into our country with funds that are presently trapped in Nigeria.  In order to commence this business, we solicit your assistance to enable us transfer into your account the said trapped-funds.

The source of this funds is as follows: during the immediate past military regime here in Nigeria, Military Government Officials set up companies and awarded themselves contracts which were grossly over invoiced in various ministries.  The present civilian government has set up this panel to look into contracts awarded to local/foreign contractors, for which payment has not been made.  In the course, we have been able identified many inflated funds that are presently floating in the Bank of Nigeria ready for payment.  However, by virtue of our positions as civil servants and members by my colleagues of the panel to look for an overseas partner into whose account we could transfer the sum of US $30,000,000.00 (Thirty Million U.S. Dollars).  We have a complete understanding of the workings of this form of endeavor and as Civil Servants, we shall require some financial assistance where you do decide to assist us transfer the funds.. We have agreed to share the money thus:

20% for the account owner (You)
75% for us (The Officials)
5% to be set aside in setting all foreign expenses and local expenses (by us) incidental to the actualization of this project.

As a token of our gratitude as soon as you confirm the arrival of the funds in your Account, we shall arrange for you the equivalent of 500,000 barrels of Automobile Gasoline (AGO), for spotlifting as less than market price.  One of my colleagues, Mr. A. Abba, is directly in charge of Crude Oil allocation.

It is pertinent to state that we shall need your assistance in the investment of part of our share of the funds in viable business opportunities in your country as we do not intend to bring all our money back to our country in cash form.

Please, note that this transaction is 100% safe, and we intend to effect the transfer within 10 banking days from the date of receipt of the following information via email or fax numbers above:

Complete details of beneficiary (you or your company), your confidential telephone and fax numbers, complete information of the bank where you want the funds transferred (bank name, address, telephone and fax numbers, account number etc.)

The above information will enable us write letters of claim and job description respectably, using your company's name to apply for the payment and re-award the contract to your company.  We are looking forward to doing this business with you and solicit your confidentiality in this transaction.

Please acknowledge the receipt of this letter using the above email address/fax number.  I will bring you into the complete picture of this pending project when I have heard from you.
