I have decided to contact you by email due to the urgency of this transaction,as we have been reliably informed that it will take at least a minimum of two to three weeks for a normal post to reach you,so we decided it is best using the e-mail,which is quicker and also to enable us meet up with the first payment quarter for the year 2003 which has already begun. However, let me start by introducing myself properly to you. I am Engr. Collins Onoraro Director General in the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) and I presently head a seven man tenders board incharge of Contract Awards and Payment Approvals. I came to know of you in my search for a reliable and reputable person to handle a very confidential business transaction which involves the transfer of a huge sum of money to a foreign account requiring maximum CONFIDENCE, My colleagues and I are Top Officials of the Federal Government Contract Review and Award Panel. Our duties include Evaluation, Vetting, Approval for payment of Contract jobs done for the N.N.P.C and other Federal government corporations. The source of this funds is as follows: In the second quarter of 2001 this committee was mandated to review and award contracts to the tune of US$400 million US dollars to a group of five firms for the supply, construction and installation of Oil Pipe lines in Warri and Port-Harcourt. During this process my colleagues and I decided and agreed among ourselves to deliberately over-inflate the total contract sum from US$400 million to US$450 million United States dollars with the main intention of sharing the remaining sum of US$50 miilion amongst ourselves. The Federal Government of Nigeria has since last year approved the sum of US$450 million for us as the contract sum, and the sum of US$400 million has also been paid to the foreign companies concerned as contract entitlements for the various contracts done, but since the company is entiltled to US$400 million dollars only, we are now left with US$50 million dollars balance in the account which we intend to disburse amongst ourselves,but by virtue of our positions as civil servants and members of this panel, we cannot do this by ourselves, as we are prohibited by the Code of Conduct Bureau (Civil Service Laws) from opening and/or operating foreign accounts in our names while still in Government service, making it impossible for us to acquire the money in our names right now. I have therefore, been delegated as a matter of trust and urgency by my colleagues in the panel to look for an overseas partner into whose account we would transfer the sum of US$50 million. Hence we are writing you this letter. My Colleagues and I have agreed that if you or your company can act as the beneficiary of this funds on our behalf, you or your Company will retain 30% of the total amount (US$50 million), while 60% will be for us (OFFICIALS) and the remaining 10% will be used in offsetting all debts/expenses and Taxes incurred both local and foreign in the cause of this transfer. Needless to say, the trust reposed on you at this juncture is enormous. In return we demand your complete honesty and trust. You must however NOTE that this transaction will be strictly based on the following terms and conditions as we have stated below; a) Our conviction of your transparent honesty and diligence. b) That you would treat this transaction with utmost secrecy and confidentiality. c) That you will not ask for more share or try to sit on the funds once it is under your custody, or any form of blackmail. d) That upon receipt of the funds you will release the funds as instructed by us after you have removed your share of 30% from the total amount. Please, note that this transaction is 100% legal and risk free. The $50,000,000.00 will be shared thus: 1)You as the foreign partner 30% 2)My colleagues and I 65% 3)Expenses as incured by both(yourself and us) parties 5% I will bring you into the complete picture of this pending business transaction when I have heard from you and also receive your confidential telephone and fax numbers to enable to hasten communication. Best regards. Engr. Collins Onoraro.
