FROM THE DISK OF
DR.NUEL EZE.
Lagos-Nigeria
DEAR SIR/MADAM
I am DR.NUEL EZE. Chairman of the Tender Committee of
the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC). My Committee is
principally concerned with payment of all contract awarded from 1998 to
date, in order of priority as regard capital projects of the NNPC. The information
we gathered from the Foreign Office of the Nigeria Chambers of Commerce
and Industries is so positive as to convince us that you would provide us
with solution to a money transfer deal valued at Thirty One Million United
States Dollars and subsequently a jointbusiness venture.
In the course of our duties as values, and project inspectors for the
on-going liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) project, we have over-invoiced the
value of some jobs done by foreign contractors for the NNPC to the tune
of US$31M.As follows: - Computer optimization and Installation $16,000.000.00
Installation of 250,000.00 Monax Turbine$10,000.000.00 Turn Around Maintenance
$5,000,000.00 Our aim of over-invoicing this payment is to divert the excess
amount to a discrete account abroad. This fund is now floating in suspense
account at the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN). This is the fund my colleagues
and I have decided to transfer into your account since we,as civil servants
are not allowed to operate or own foreign account. The money will be shared
as follows after transfer:30% for you (Account Owner) 60% for me and my
colleagues 10% to off-set both local and international expenses that Would
be incurred in the course of this transaction.
To be able to claim the funds, we will be purporting your company to be
the original contractor / beneficiary of the funds so all procedures
for international transfer shall be strictly followed, as we have
worked out all modalities for a swift and riskfree transfer.
If this proposal satisfies you, please contact me Through
nueleze2005@yahoo.it with the following important
information. Bank Name / Address Account Name ,Account NumberTel/Fax Telex
of Bank Personal Phone / Fax Numbers for easy communication. This transaction
will last for 14 working days from the time we submit the required information,
as all modalities concerning this transaction have been worked out and it
is completely riskfree.
Please be informed that this subject is classified sensitive.
Therefore treat the transaction with utmost confidentiality and
urgency.
Yours
Faithfully.
DR.NUEL EZE
