OFFICE OF THE CHAIRMAN,
CONTRACT AWARDING COMMITTE,
"ECOWAS".
OUAGADOUGOU, BURKINA-FASO.
WEST AFRICA.
ATTN:
I am DR. DIALLO DICKO,The Chairman Contract Awarding Committee of the ECONOMIC
COMMUNITY OF WEST AFRICAN STATES ( ECOWAS) with Headquarters in BURKINA
FASO
I got your information in a business directory from the Burkina Faso Chamber
of Commerce and Industries, when I was searching for a reliable, honest
and trust worthy person to entrust this business with. I was simply inspired
and motivated to pick your contact from the directory. After discussing
my view and your profile with my colleagues, they were very much satisfied
and decided to contact you immediately for this mutual business relationship.
We wish to transfer the sum of USD$35.000,000.00 (Thirty-five million United
States Dollars only) into your personal or company's bank account. This
fund was a residue of the over invoiced contract bills awarded by us for
the supply of ammunitions,hard/soft wares, pharmaceuticals / medical items,
light and heavy duty vehicles, apparels and other dministrative logistics
etc for the ECOMOG in Sierra-Leone and Liberia during the Peace Keeping
Projects.
This DEAL was deliberately hatched out and carefully protected with all
the attendant loop holes sealed off. As the Chairman of CAC, I have the
cooperation and mandate of the Financial Director and the Secretary of the
Organisation. We arranged and over invoiced the contract funds supplied
by different companies from different countries during the crisis. It was
our consensus to seek the assistance of a willing foreigner to provide us
with the facilities to transfer this money out of West Africa. This is borne
out of our belief in the non-stable and sporous political nature of this
sub-region.
The original contractors have been duly paid by the Banque Centrale Des
Etats De L`Afrique De L`Ouest (Central Bank of the West African States)
through our bankers - Societe Generale Banque. This balance is suspended
in the escrow accounts awaiting claims by any foreign company of our choice.
We intend to pay out this fund NOW as the organization is winding up its
activities since the aim of returning PEACE to the countries and the coast
has been achieved. Based on the laws and ethics of employment, we as civil
servants working under this organization, are not allowed to operate a foreign
account. This is the more reason why we needed your assistance to provide
an account that can sustain this fund for safe keeping and our future investment
with your comprehensive advise, assistance and partnership in your country.
It is however agreed, as the account owner in this deal to allow you 30%
of the entire sum as compensation, 60% will be held on trust for us while
10% will be used to defray any incidental charges and cost during the course
of the transaction. This transaction will be successfully concluded within
14 days if you accord us your due cooperation. You should provide the followings;
YOUR COMPANY'S NAME WITH COMPLETE ADDRESS,
TEL AND FAX NUMBERS. (if available)
THE NAME OF YOUR BANK,
ITS ADDRESS WITH TEL,
FAX AND TELEX NUMBERS AND THE ACCOUNT NUMBER.
THE COMPLETE MAILING ADDRESS OF THE BENEFICIARY WITH TELEPHONE AND FAX NUMBERS.
Upon the receipt of this information, the documents and approval with the
texts will be sent to you for confirmation and then forwarded to the organization
for ratification and subsequent payment. As with the case of all organized
(sensitive) and conspired DEALS, we solicit for your unreserved confidentiality
and utmost secret in this business. We hope to retire peacefully and lead
a honourable business life afterwards. There are no risks involved regards
in this business.
The reply must be through this e-mail (diallo_dicko222@yahoo.co.in)for more
intimate and detailed discussions.
With regards.
DR. DIALLO DICKO.
