FROM THE OFFICE OF NIGER DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION
NDDC HEADQUARTERS, PORT-HARCOURT NIGERIA.
Dear Friend,
I am Engr. John Okeke. Executive Director Projects of the NDDC
(Niger Delta Development commission). This commission was reconstituted in
the year 1999 by the federal government of Nigeria as a result of consistent
environmental neglect agitated by the oil and minerals producing states.
We just received a budgetary allocation of us$1 billion for environmental
maintenance/management of oil producing states (NDDC states) for the first
quarter of 2006. In view of the present political situation in our country,
I have agreed with my colleagues to withdraw the sum of USD$35,000,000.00
(Thirty-five million) and invest it with a partner abroad who will receive
the funds on our behalf. All modalities to ensure a hitch-free transfer of
this fund into your account through the offi! cials of central bank of
Nigeria
(CBN) and federal ministry of finance (FMF) have been properly worked out.My
colleagues and I have agreed to part with any one who assists us with the
receiving of this funds 30% of the total sum,
while the remaining 70% will be for us. So if this proposal interests you of
which I hope it would, please forward to me immediately the following:
Your full names:
your contact address:
and direct telephone numbers:
As soon as we receive the above information from you, we shall immediately
file up application for approvals and payment shall follow as soon as
possible. Then your Bank Account details will be required for the transfers
into your designated Bank Account immediately.
I therefore request you to please maintain topmost confidential of this
transaction because we are top civil servants and would not want our
reputable image dented after putting in s! everal years of active service in
the government.
Thanks for your understanding, while I await your diligent response.
Yours faithfully,
Engr. John Okeke.
Executive Director Projects NDDC.
