REQUEST FOR AN URGENT CONFIDENTIAL BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP

After due deliberation with my colleagues, I have decided to forward to you this business proposal. We want a reliable person who could assist us to transfer the sum of Twenty Million Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars ( $20,500,000 ) into his / her account.

This fund resulted from an over-invoiced bill from contracts awarded by us under the budget allocation to my Ministry and this bill has been approved for payment by the concerned Ministries. The contract has since been executed, commissioned and the contractor was paid the actual cost of the contract. We are left with the balance US$20.5M as part of the over-invoiced amount which we have deliberately over estimated for our own use. But under our protocol division, civil servants are forbidden to operate or own foreign accounts. This is why I am contacting you to be our custodian for this fund.

As you may want to know and to make you less curious, I got your address from adverts in the business directory that portrayed your establishment in good light. I am the Chief Accountant/Internal Auditor of the Contract Award Committe(CAC ) of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation ( NNPC). This transaction is very much free from all sorts of RISKS and TROUBLE from my Government. We the N.N.P.C. Officials involved in this deal have put in many years in service to this Ministry. We have been exercising patience for this opportunity for so long and to most of us this is a life time opportunity we cannot afford to miss.

You need not to worry about the responsibilities of transferring this fund into your account, for all the administrative steps needed for the transfer of this fund into your designated bank account will be done by me. I and my colleagues have agreed to COMPENSATE you duly if agreement is reached by both of us. I and one of my colleagues involved in this deal will come to your country to arrange for our share, upon the confirmation from you that the money has been credited into your nominated bank account.

Consequent upon your acceptance of this proposal, kindly confirm your interest by Telephone to me, through my Direct Tel No: + 873762692483. Note: You dont need to add my country code and area code, just call direct from your country. Your indication by revert Telephone to me of your sincere and serious interest will enable me fax you the PROCEDURE FOR OPERATION. If my line is busy, please keep trying you will surely get through. NOTE: In the event of your inability to handle this transaction please inform us so that we can look for another reliable person who can assist in this respect.

It might surprise you why we choose you and trusted you for this transaction. Yes, we believe that good friends can be discovered and business like this can not be realised without trust. This is why we have decided to trust you for this transaction. We are looking forward to doing this transaction with you. Be further informed that everyones interest and security had been considered before you were contacted, so be rest assured and feel free to go into this transaction with us. But let Honesty and Trust be our watchword throughout this transaction and your prompt reply will be highly appreciated. Thank you, and God bless. Best Regards,

DR. RAYMOND UZOR.

REQUEST FOR URGENT BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP

First, I must solicit your strictest confidence in this transaction .This by
virtue of its nature as being utterly confidential and 'top secret'. You
have been recommended by an associate who assured me in confidence of your
ability and reliability to prosecute a 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 last Regime here in
Nigeria, some Government Officials set up companies and awarded themselves
contracts which were grossly over-invoiced in various ministries.The present
Government set up a contract Review Panel and we have identified a lot of
inflated contract funds which are presently floating in the Central Bank of
Nigeria ready for payment. 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
of the panel to look for an overseas partner into whose account we would
transfer the sum of US$21,500,000.00 (Twenty One Million, Five Hundred
Thousand United .States Dollars) Hence we are writing you this letter.
We have agreed to share the money thus:
1. 20% for the Account owner (you)
2. 70% for us (The officials)
3. 10% to be used in settling taxation and all local and foreign expenses.

It is from the 70% that we wish to commence the importation business.
Please, note that this transaction is 100% safe and we hope to commence the
transfer latest seven (7) banking days from the date of the receipt of the
following information below by Tel/Fax:234-1-7748995,
(a)company's name Beneficiary of account
(b) Your Personal TeL. Number and Fax Number
(c) Bank account/Sort/ABA/Routing numbers were the funds will be transfered
to
(d) Your Bankers Address, Telephone and Fax Number.
The above information will enable us write letters of claim and job
description respectively. This way we will use your company's name to apply
for payment and re-award the contract in your company's name. 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 tel/fax number. I will bring you into the complete picture of this
pending project when I have heard from you.
Your faithfully,
