Dear Partner,
REQUEST FOR URGENT BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP
First, I must solicit your confidence in this transaction. This is by virtue of its nature as being utterly confidential and top secret.I got
your contact in my private search for a reliable person to handle this transaction.We shall base this transaction on mutual respect and honesty
Hence,it is neccessary for you to assure us of your ability and to prosecute this transaction of great magnitude involving a pending business
transaction requiring maximum confidence. We are top officials of the Federal Government Contract Review Panel who are interested in importation
of goods into our country with funds which 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 fund is as follows: During the past Military Regimes here in Nigeria, government officials set up companies and awarded
themselves contract which were grossly over-invoiced in various Ministries.
As a result, the Democratic Government of Chief Olusegun Obasanjo deemed it neccessary to set up a Contract Review Panel to investigate and recommend accordingly. After a thorough investigation, we discovered a lot of
inflated contract funds which are presently floating in the Central Bank of
Nigeria. We (members) have unanimously agreed to transfer part of these funds to a foreign account. However, by virtue of our position as civil servants and members of this Panel, we cannot acquire this money in our
names. I have therefore, been delegated as a matter of trust by my colleagues in the Panel to look for an Overseas partner into whose account
we would transfer the sum of US$18,500,000.00 (Eighteen Million, Five Hundred Thousand US. Dollars).
Adequate logistics and strategies had been worked out to ensure a successful transfer with your maximum co-operation. Hence we are writing
you this letter. We have agreed to share the money thus:
1. 25% for the account owner (you)
2. 65% for us (the officials)
3. 10% to be used in settling taxation and all local and foreign expenses.
We wish to commence the importation business with our own share, please note that this transaction is 100% safe and we hope to commence and
conclude the transfer latest in ten (10) banking days from the date of receipt of the following information through the above e-mail:
1) Your current tel/fax number,
2) Your name/company name and address.
The above information will enable us write letters of claim and job description respectively and these will be used to apply for payment and
re-award the contract.We are looking forward to doing business with you and
solicit your confidentiality in this transaction. Please acknowledge the receipt of this letter using the above email address. I will bring you into the complete picture of this project when I have heard from you.
Yours Faithfully,
Dr. Hamid Kamilu.
