Attn: Dear , I am Dr. Benard Uka, the financial Controller and Contract Award Committee Chairman in the National Electric Power Authority (NEPA) in Lagos, Nigeria. My colleagues have assigned me to seek for assistance of a reliable foreigner through whom we can transfer the sum of US $35,500,000.00 (Thirty Five Million, five Hundred Thousand U.S Dollars) which arose from deliberate over- inflated contract value for the General expansion of the Kanji Dam Thermal Station on behalf of National Electric Power Authority (NEPA) for increased energy generation to Nigeria and some other West African Countries.
The Contract was awarded in 1998 during the late General Sanni Abacha regime to an expatriate firm with the consideration of 10% commission agreement on the total contract value. The contract has been completed and the contractor has long been paid, we are now left with this US$35,500,000.00 representing the 10% our own share as agreed presently in the Federal Government account. The favorable political/economic climate in this country now presented an opportunity for this money to be transferred out of the country. I got your contact from a commercial attached to your emabassy. This assurance gave me courage to link you up for this particular transaction, and I hope it will be of mutual benefit to all of us. Our contact in the Federal Ministry of Finance have given us a go a head advice to begin the process of the remittance, hence we have set in motion the machinery for the take off of the transaction and further action will commence immediately we hear from you. We have agreed that after the transfer of the money into your account, you shall be entitled to 20% of the total amount transferred, while 70% will be for us and the remaining 10% will take care of any incidental expenses that emanates from this transaction. We decided to give you this percentage in order to motivate you and also to let you feel satisfied at the end of this transaction. The nature of your business is not particularly relevant for the success of this transaction. All we require is your willingness to co-operate and assurance that our own share will be given to us when this money is transferred into your account. All necessary precautions have been taken to ensure a no risk situation on the sides of both parties and it is believed that the conclusion of this transaction will not last more than fourteen (14) working days. However, we are going to retrieve the whole documents that will be related to this transaction so that both parties will be protected after the transfer of the money into your account. Since we have no knowledge of business, our plan is to invest this money into Real Estate, Stocks and we can also invest in some other profitable business in your country based on your advice because many of our years has been spent as Civil Servant, and we may likely resign from government service to private businesses after this money is transferred into your Account. Please note that this business is strictly confidential and must not be disclosed to a third party. This is necessary to avoid disclosure that may jeopardize the transaction. Finally, if this proposal is acceptable to you or if you have any questions, feel free to contact me on my private E-mail address. [EMAIL PROTECTED] You should also send to me your private telephone / fax numbers and E-mail address for easy and confidential communication. I will oblige you with further information if so required. Note: For confidential reasons, please reply with this Email address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Best Regards Dr. Benard Uka.
