ATTENTION,
REQUEST FOR ASSISTANCE TO TRANSFER MONEY INTO YOUR
COUNTRY
Please I need your help urgently.It is my pleasure in
writing to you this letter on behalf of myself and
colleagues. Your particulars were given to me by a member of the Saudi Arabian Export Promotion council(S.E.P.C) who was among the Kingdom's government delegation to your country .
I have decided to seek a confidential co-operation
with you in the execution of the deal described
hereunder for the benefit of all parties concerned and
I hope you will keep this a top secret because of the
nature of the business and the positions of the
officials involved.
Within the Saudi Arabian Mining Company where I am
Project Implementation Director and with the
co-operation of my colleague, we have in our
possession as over-due payments bills totalling
$68m(Sixty Eight Million United States Dollars) that we
wish to transfer abroad with the assistance and
co-operation of a foreign company or individual who is
to receive the said funds on our behalf through a
reliable foreign account which can accomodate such
funds with minimal taxation.
The amount represents 10% percent of the total
contract value in respect of some jobs executed on
behalf of our Petroleum Ministry by a foreign
contracting firm which we the officials over-invoiced.
The actual cost have been paid to the original main
contractors, leaving outstanding, the balance of the
above sum of USD68m(Sixty Eight Million U.S. Dollars)
which we have in principle officially gotten approval
to remit by Telegraphic Transfer(T.T) to the nominated
foreign account of the beneficiary.
We had listed a company Orient Petroleum Services as
the beneficiary of this balance of USD$68,000,000. Now I
come to you for your assistance because I do intend to
invest my own part of the funds in Leather Goods business, which investment will benefit from your experience.
Following the death of King Fahd, the present government of Saudi Arabia is
determined to pay every contractor all debts owed so
as to maintain a good relationship with foreign
Governments especially China to enjoy
their political support in the middle East Region and
all other non-government financial agencies. We had
decided therefore, to include this our bills for
approval and we have obtained the approvals for
release of the funds.
We are seeking your assistance in providing a good
bank account in your country into which we can remit
this money and by acting as our main partner and
trustee and co-ordinate the receiving of this funds on
our behalf. We have filed documents to show that the
beneficiary of the funds is Orient Petroleum
Services,a company which we allege is based in your
country.
All applications for claims to reflect the payment and
approval in the name of this company has been
completed and filed with the Saudi Finance
Ministry.The ministry is now awaiting the final
beneficiary account to issue the Payment Instruction.
You will therefore act on behalf of the company for
the purpose of receiving this payment into your
nominated account. These processes are all internal
arrangements with the departments concerned and we are
here to watch over the processing of the release of
the payment to the account which you make available to
us.
I have the authority of my partners to propose that
should you be willing to assist in this transaction
your share of the sum will be 20%,while 80% is for us.
Please note that we have made this business itself
100% safe for our own security provided you treat it
with utmost confidentiality and secrecy on your side.
I repose my confidence in you and hope that you will
not sit on the money as soon as it hits your account
and I will be with you in your country immediately I
file the bank account that you provide with the
appropriate Saudi departments.
Finally sir, on acceptance of this request,please send your initial reply to my present email address. You must also provide us immediately with your direct phone and fax numbers and your safe email address(es).
I will send to you a Fund Management Agreement upon receiving your reply.This Agreement will take care of the funds we will invest in your country, while the remaining funds will be used to complete our EXTRUSION PLANT PROJECT IN MOROCCO. I will also send to you my Field Satelite Phone number for convinient contacts.
Thanks for your co-operation.
Dr. Ghazi Ozair
