Subject: BUSINESS PROPOSAL!!!
BUSINESS PROPOSAL!!!
Attention:
Goodday and greetings to you,
I guess this letter may come to you as a surprise since i had no previous correspondence with you.I got your contact from your conutry's trade journal in the World Trade Center (W.T.C)i was convience after reading your company's profile that you are a person to trust and could handle these transaction that involves huge amount of fund.
It is with trust and confidence that I write to reveal this urgent business proposal to you.I was assigned by two of my colleagues to seek for a foreign partner, who will assist us in providing a convenient A/C in a designated bank overseas for the transfer of USD30,000,000:00 (Thirty Million United States Dollars Only), pending on our arrival in your country for utilization and disbursement of the fund with the owner of t! he A/C. The above fund in question is not connected with arms, drugs or money laundering. it is the product of over invoice on contract awarded by my corporation.
I am Philip Chukwu (Group General Manager) of the National Petroleum Investment Management Service (NAPIMS) which is the upstream arm of NNPC and oversees federal investments in the energy sector. of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC).View the following website very carefully.There you will see who is contacting you,but please,it is very confidential cos only you and i with my two partners knows about this.

On the 23rd of January 1999 my Corporation, awarded a contract of USD180,000,000:00 (One Hundred and eighty Million United State Dollars Only) on the actual Contract sum worth US$120,000,000:00 We only inflated the sum worth with the intention of sharing the remaining balance of US$60m (Sixty Million Un! ited State Dollars) among ourselves. Now the actual contract has been successfully executed and the actual contractors have been paid their US$120,000,000:00 only in full leaving a balance of US$60,000,000:00. unknown to the Government of Nigeria, which we now want to transfer out of the country through a foreign partner in our favor to make it as if payment for the contract has been completed.Since we as government officials are not permitted by law to operate foreign bank Accounts and secondly we cannot collect the money from the company's bank Account because the Contract was undertaken by a foreign firm and were paid through remittance to their foreign Account.
My colleagues and I have therefore agreed that if you/your company can act as the beneficiary of this fund (US$60,000,000:00) we will transfer the money to your account and you will retain 30% of the total fund, for the assistance rendered, while we have set 10% aside for off setting of all the expenses that may be incurred in advance by both parties during the fund transfer ! process..
My dear, it is a good thing that the president has endorsed the resolution passed by the Senate that all foreign contractors owed by the Federal Government of Nigeria should be paid, we will seize this good opportunity to purport you as one of the beneficiaries to be paid.
If you are interested in this proposal kindly email to me your letter of acceptance along with your direct telephone and fax numbers including your physical contact address, but if you cannot for any reason to handle this transaction i should be grateful if you can introduce it to a reliable and trust worthy person in which in any case your interest will be properly taken care of.
We are requesting you to co-operate with us since this is our only chance of claiming the fund. Please note that we have been careful and have worked out all the modalities for a smooth transfer of the fund to your chosen or designated account before contacting you.
If the proposal is accepta! ble to you please indicate your interest by contacting us through the above stated e-mail address send us your full name, direct fax and telephone number. On confirmation of your acceptance more details about this transaction will be given to you.
This transaction is strictly confidential but 100% risk free. Note also that the particular nature of your business is irrelevant to this transaction and this transaction is expected to be concluded within 15 working days since all local contacts and arrangements have been properly perfected for a smooth and successful conclusion of this transaction.
I awaits your positive response.
Yours truthfully,
Mr.Phillip Chukwu.
