We have never stopped wondering why you have not been able to secure your contract settlement considering your regular telephone relationship with Nigeria. We have every reason to suspect anyone as such ghost contractors, who in collaboration with unscrupulous officials of our diseased parasite and corporations to defraud the government. This is a pure criminal offence as stated in contract decree of 02.1999 as amended by the contract law of 1980 section 490-edict 244, paragraph 9, and sub-section 18 of the criminal code popularly known as Advance Fee Fraud (419).
Furthermore, in the light of these undesirable improprieties, we are convinced beyond all reasonable doubt that you are the rightful beneficiary of the said contract amount as witnessed in your contract file and our pre-remittance verification of your claims. Endeavor to contact the Office of the Federal Minister of Finance (F.M.F) on Financial and Surveillance (MRS.) NENADI Y. USMAN by Name.

Your payment file is on her desk right now, so go ahead and contact her as soon as possible, also reconfirm your contract details, i will not relent from here but as you know you are the beneficiary that needs to give him a push.
Get across to her and keep me informed on all developments.
Once again i am counting on your trust throughout the period of this transaction.
