FROM THE DESK OF NICHOLAS CHILE,
THE NATIONAL CHAIRMAN OF THE EUROPEAN
UNION CONTRUCTION CONTRACTS AWARD COMMITTEE,
BURKINA-FASO RIGIONAL OFFICE.
Dearest Friend,
I am the current national chairman of contracts awarding committee of the European Union Construction Contract in Burkina Faso central office. Please, I GOT your profile from the Burkina-Faso chamber of commerce and industry office business directory. Having discussed my views and motives about your good profile with my co-staffers in our office, we all agreed together that I should contact you immediately for this business money transfer.
Based on our gentle agreement and mutual understanding in our sub-region, we therefore wish and willing to transfer the huge sum of US$20.m (Twenty Million, dollars only) peacefully and officially into your account Personal Or Company's Bank Account so urgently right now. Actually, this fund was deliberately raised from an OVER INVIOCED CONTRACT BILLS awarded by us for the prompt supplies of Equipments, Hard Wares, Pharmaceuticals, Heavy Duty Vehicles and other relating items as needed by the Burkina-Faso approved projects.
Now as the chairman of the awarding committee, I have gotten the full corporation with special understanding of the Financial Director and that of the Secretary General of the organisation. We so perfectly arranged to over invoice the entire contract funds, that has been supplied by different companies from different countries. So it was by the entire staff total agreement that I should contact your kind company as a FOREIGNER to provide us with the facilities legally needed to transfer this money officially out of Burkina Faso as soon as possible. Be noted also that already the original contractors have been duly paid by the African Development Bank, via our bankers--Societe Generale Banque, while the balance is still into our suspense account waiting for a foreign claim of our choice. We need to pull out this money urgently because the organisation is about to finish all the activities as required.
Our problem now is because of our employment rules and regulations, staffers are not allowed to operate a foreign account, and this is the more reason why we seriously needed your special assistance for you to provide an account in which this balance money should be transferred into as soon as possible; and soon after the whole fund hints into your bank account, I shall be coming over to your country for sharing and investment in your country still under your good supervision.
However, we have all here agreed that you should be paid a compensation of 30% of this total fund just for the provision of your bank account, and 60% should be kept for us with you on TRUST pending when I come to meet you for our share; while 10% shall be kept so that after each and every one of us will calculate what ever he or she has spent during the process of the transfer and it shall be deducted from the 10%, while the remaining of the 10% shall be share in the normal ration . Again, this must successfully be completed within 14 Banking Working Days; hence you agreed and to fasten the transaction.
Lastly, you are therefore requested to furnish us urgently with the following information as follows:-
