Subject: Attn:
BOARD OF TRUSTEE
REVENUE AND FISCAL MOBILISATION COMMISSION [RFMC]
RFMC PLAZA,FEDERAL SECRETARIATE COMPLEX,
MAITAMA SULE, ABUJA F.C.T
FROM THE OFFICE OF: DR.PAUL JINADU
Attn:
I must solicit your strictest confidence in this transaction, this is by
virtue of its nature as being utterly confidential and top secret as I
personally sourced for your contact through a private and confidential
search which I conducted alone using the internet resource of the Abuja
Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Foreign Trade Division.
I am DR.PAUL JINADU, the Chairperson of the Federal Government of Nigeria
Contract Award, Revenue mobilisation and Monitoring Committee of the REVENUE
AND FISCAL MOBILISATION COMMISSION[RFMC]
Sometime ago, a contract was awarded to a conglomerate of Foreign Companies
and consortium by my committee on behalf of NATIONAL PETROLEUM DEVELOPMENT
COMPANY,a subsidiary of the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation[NNPC]
specifically on :
REHABILITATION OF KADUNA,WARRI AND PORT HARCOURT REFINERIES;INCREASING THEIR
CAPACITIES;REPOSITIONING AND GROWTH OF NNPC AND TO REVIVE THE EXPLORATION
ARM OF NNPC AND FINALLY GENERAL TURN AROUND MAINTENANCE[TAM]
The contract was over-invoiced to the tune of Fifty nine Million five
hundred United States Dollars [US $59,500,000.00] only. This was done
deliberately, the over-invoicing was a deal by members of my committee to
benefit from the project. we now desire to transfer the money, which is
presently in a suspense account of RFMC in the Central Bank of Nigeria into
an overseas account which we expect you to provide for us at the appropriate
time in the course of this transaction.
We have agreed that the following funds will be shared thus after it has
been paid into an account you shall nominate for us for the purposes of this
transfer deal;
a) 25% of the money will go to you for acting as the beneficiary of the
fund.
b) 5% has been set aside as an abstract projection for reimbursement to
both parties for incidental expenses that may be incurred in the course of
the transaction.
c)70% to us the commissioners (which we wish to commence a viable and
vibrant foreign investment scheme or project in conjunction with you)
overseas.
I Would Require immediately:
a) your personal details such as names, personal/corporate, Street address,
phone, fax ,& mobile phone number.
The above information would be used to make formal applications as a matter
of procedure for the release of the money in your name and details for
onward transfer to your nominated account; not forgetting that we are
fronting you or putting you in the stead of the true and original
owner/beneficiary for this fund. This is my office and I strongly and
confidently do not have any doubt in the 100% workability and maximum
success.
OF crucial importance I promise to treat in strict confidence and secrecy
all information relating to your person which you furnish to me for use in
this transaction. It is imperative to state that there is a strong
possibility of funds release in tranches if such a mandate is made after
processing of transfer requirements by the foreign beneficiary, this means
that the funds can be remitted in bits but first thing first the various
applications must be made by us with your approval before any such
application can be entertained. It does not matter whether or not your
company or you does contract projects of the nature described here, the
assumption is that you won a major contract and subcontracted it out to
other companies, more often than not, big trading companies or individuals
of unrelated field win major contracts and subcontracts to more specialized
firms for execution of such contracts.
We have strong and reliable connections and contacts at the Central Bank of
Nigeria and The Federal Ministry of Finance and we have no doubts at all
that this money will be released and transferred if we get the true and
reliable foreign partner[s] to assist us in this deal.
We want this money to be transferred to the foreign account which you are
going to provide bearing in mind that our civil service code of conduct
forbids us from owning or running foreign company or running foreign
account, all expenses regarding the account opening if not already in
existence shall be borne by you, all expenses are however reimbursable as
already stated above on conclusion of business.
Please acknowledge the receipt of this letter if you are interested and send
the required information mentioned through email.
I MAKE BOLD TO SAY THAT BECAUSE OF SO MANY CASES OF RECENT NEFARIOUS
ACTIVITIES OF INTERNATIONAL FRAUDSTERS,IF I HAVE YOUR SUPPORT AND
CO-OPERATION THERE WILL BE NO UPFRONT FEES OR CHARGES TO YOU AS I TAKE
ABSOLUTE RESPONSIBILITY TO SOURCE FUNDS TO TAKE CARE OF OUR LOCAL FISCAL
JURISDICTION.
For more details on this transaction ,please feel free to send me a mail
demanding for same and remembering to include your phone and fax numbers for
easy communication.
I wait in anticipation of your co-operation.
Yours Faithfully,
DR.PAUL JINADU
