excuse me for the embarrassment this letter might
cause you as we have not met or known each other before.
I have the mandate of my colleagues in my office to solicit for your

I and other members of my depart! ment (contract award committee), oncause
of writing the contract were able to over-invoice the contract sum to the
tone of (143,300,000.00).
And it might also interest you to know that the original contractors, who
executed the contract, have been paid their contract amount on completion of
the contract.
Now we are left with the over-invoiced sum of (27,500,000.00) for our mutual
benefit.
All arrangements have been concluded on how this money will be moved.
Our constraints lie on the fact that we required a foreign firm or

reason we have generally agreed to compensate you withthe sum
of(US$3,000,000.00), While the balance of (US$24,500,000.00) have been
mapped out for investment into a foreign capital market.
It is important I mention that the officials
involved in histransaction are top government
functionaries who have put in years of service to this Country (Nigeria).
For the maintenance of personal integrity and prestige of all persons
involved in this transaction, you are implored to exhibit utmost secrecy
throughout the duration of this deal.
You are strongly advised to avoid discussing this transaction with a third
party as that could jeopardize the success of this transaction.
You may open a separate bank account in any
country of your choice for this purpose if you wish.
Meanwhile all arrangements for this transfer to be
concluded have been properly organized and further
action awaits your response to this request.
