Subject: THANKS FOR YOUR RESPONSE.
Dear VICTIMNAME.VICTIMNAME,
Thank you very much for your response to my proposal, However your total commitment that will determine the success of the transaction, the whole success of the deal depend on you as the person to be front as the Chief Executive Officer of the company. I need you to see this as a project that will bring success to both parties and opportunity. Please see what you have to do to ensure the success of the transaction. I will come to a reasonable agreement with your interest.
I will therefore proceed to educate you more on this transaction as requested. We are top government officials that are into this mutual beneficial transaction and these people including me.
The Presidency has set up a body to verify and pay up all foreign debts owed as a result of contracts executed by foreign companies. Nigeria in the past has suffered a lot of negative publicity from the Western world/communities simply because of her long military rule based on this, the new civilian regime in their bid to launder my country image decided to take a bold step towards paying all debts owed to contractors,
Hence we need some one that we can front the contractor who really executes a contract here to make this real and have a good stand, as other contractors. I want to make this transaction real as if your company actually executed a contract here in Nigeria a long time ago with Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC). And due to the political instability here in Nigeria you have not been able to receive your contract payment but with this new move by the government you are now making arrangements for your contract sum to be release to you/your Company.
Please do not worry regarding cost of incorporation and the registration of your company here those I will be able to do secretly and send the certificate. I shall take care of all cost.
We consider this the best time as contractors are already applying for their payments we see this as great opportunity to apply and claim the said fund, I will ensure that all necessary paperwork is done and all approvals will be secured from the appropriate governmental Ministries, your name shall be included among the contractors that are to be paid in this payment first quarter.
To achieve the objective of this transaction I am assuring you that all will be legitimized and 100% risk free, our strategy is to work in such a way that the fund (US 21.5 Million) is released you as contract payment for a contract that would be officially perceived to have been executed by you or your company at Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC). While the true nature of the project will be known to you and I alone.
Firstly, we shall incorporate your company in Nigeria with Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) and obtain a certificate of incorporation in the name of your company that we are to front as said company, also register it with the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC). As a category A foreign contractor so that it becomes a corporate citizen of the federal republic of Nigeria. This qualifies the company to do business in the country.
Thereafter we shall obtain a certificate of contract award showing that a contract was indeed awarded to your company; a certificate of completion showing that, your company in favor of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC).
If you can do this with me do forward to me your communication information and more detail of you such as: Your names, address, company, address telephone number, fax, and personal identification such as a copy of your international passport or driver license.
Please the success of this project will determine by your confidentiality ability to stand and make this demand. I will advice that you do not mention to any person or persons even it success.
I await your urgent response and the requested information. You are free to ask questions that bother you regarding this proposal before we commence the documentation of the company name as requested.
Please further corresponding should be send to this email:
farmland_ahmed1@yahoo.com for confidential reasons
Best regard.
