Chairman Senate Committee on petroleum
and Natural Gas.
Victoria Island Lagos Nigeria
Dear Friend,
I got your information from an Internet
marketing company and I decide to contact you
believing that you will be responsible and honest to assist in this Venture.
You are probably aware of the on going civil rule in
my country, Nigeria and the determination of the
Obasanjo's government to probe the expenditure
of all past administrations in the country within the
last 23 years, this led to the inauguration On a wide
range of Senate committees.
My name is Senator. David C. Brigidi, the Chairman,
Senate Committee on Petroleum and Liquefied natural
Gas Project (NLNG) (see petroleum and gas section of
the above link below)
http://www.nigeriacongress.org/assembly/committees1_2003.htm#senatecom
My committee?s has a mandate which include to
scrutinize, verify and further recommend for payments
all findings and recommendations made by the
Chief Christopher kolade committee on contracts
awarded and executed (or not executed) in the Nigeria
National petroleum Cooperation (NNPC) And Liquefied
natural Gas Project (NLNG) within the period in
question, to determine the present financial
position of the corporation (its assets) and settle
all her liabilities to both local and foreign
Contractors.
In the course of performing our duties, we discovered
large sums of money amounting to
USD$10.6Million, floating in some of the corporation?s
account. These sums of money originated from grossly
over-valued contracts executed with the actual
contract sums paid to the bonafide beneficiaries or
their Agents. Some of these projects include
installation of PABX communication Gadgets for 14Pump
stations within Nigeria, Turn around Maintenance (TAM)
Of Port Harcourt and Kaduna Refineries and Atlas Cove
Jetties Rehabilitation Project, the list is
inexhaustible.
Sequel to this discovery, the members of my committee,
for a very peculiar reason mandated me to seek for a
credible and reliable foreign partner, who can
Confidently assist us in transferring the sum of
USD$19.5 million to his/Company's custody.
We have agreed to transfer the funds overseas for our
private use and for investment purposes with your
help.
I am contacting you therefore, to stand in as a
beneficiary of an unpaid contract to the tune of the
stated amount, and to process this Fund into your
custody. The fund shall be transferred to you legally
in accordance to all laid down procedures governing
payment of contract fees and transfer of funds.
We have worked out all modalities for the successful
transfer of this money to you as the
beneficiary. The need for this assistance is due to a
prohibition on public servant owning a foreign
account. If you would assist us, we have agreed to
give you 30% of USD$19.5 million while 10 % will be
set aside to offset any expenses Incurred and 60% for
the members of the panel. If you are willing to assist
me then provide me with your full names, company name
(if any), personal phone and fax number, with this I
would
confidently work out all documents to give you title
to the fund as an unpaid contractor with the NNPC/NLNG
Companies and also ensure the transfer of this fund to
you or into a nominated bank account (which need not
be your regular account but any other provided by you
to put you on a safe side) within the corporation's
financial period, There might be a need to have a
telephone conversation with you to familiarize and
know our self better before the commencement of this
transaction, With this arrangement we will now have
the trust and confident in your person/company as
regards the security of this fund in your custody
pending when the fund will be disbursed.
Please, should you not be in position to assist,
kindly inform me.
