Re: PAYMENT SOLUTION
I am Hon. Dr. Adeniji Olu, Minister Foreign Affairs Ministry; my office
monitors and controls the affairs of all banks and financialinstitutions in Nigeria concerned with foreign contract payments/inheritancedeposited fund.
I am the final signatory to any transfer or remittance of huge funds
moving within banks both on the local and international levels in line to
foreign contracts/inheritance settlement.I have before me list of
funds, which could not be transferred to some nominated accounts as these
accounts have been identified either as ghost accounts,unclaimed deposits
and over-invoiced sum etc. Your name was among the people expecting the
funds to be transferred into their account, on this note; I wish to
have a deal with you as regards to your unpaid funds.
I have your file before me and hope your data?s are correct and
un-tampered unless you reconfirms it. As it is my duty to recommend the
transfer of these surplus funds to the Federal Government Treasury and
Reserve Accounts as unclaimed deposits, I have the opportunity to write you
based on the instructions I received some days ago from the Senate
Committee on Contract Payments / Foreign Debts to submit the List of paymentreports / expenditures and audited reports of revenues.
Among several others, I have decided to remit your contract/inheritance
sum following my idea that we have a deal/agreement and I am going to
do this legally.
MY CONDITIONS
1. The 30% of the total amount only will be paid into an account I will
provide you after you have confirmed the transfer of your! sum into
your account by telegraphic Transfer (T/T), confirmable in 3 working days.
2. This deal must be kept secret forever, and all correspondence will
be strictly by email / telephone, for security purposes.
3. There should be no third parties as most problems associated with
your fund release are caused by your agents or representative.
If you AGREE with my conditions, l advise you on what to do immediately
and the transfer will commence without delay as I will proceed to fix
your name on the Payment schedule instantly to meet the three days
mandate.
I hope you don?t reject this offer and have your funds transferred.
Waiting for your reply soon.
HON. DR. ADENIJI OLU
FOREIGN AFFAIRS MINISTER
