Subject: YOUR OUTSTANDING CONTRACT PAYMENT
OFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR
CENTRAL BANK OF NIGERIA.
VICTORIA ISLAND
LAGOS-NIGERIA.
26TH JUNE,2006
DEAR BENEFICIAL,
I AM MRS. JOY EGOBIA, THE CONFIDENTIAL SECRETARY TO THE FORMER GOVERNORS OF
THE CENTRAL BANK OF NIGERIA (CBN) CHIEF PAUL OGWUMA AND CHIEF JOSEPH SANUSI.
INCIDENTIALLY THE NEWLY APPOINTED CBN GOVERNOR, PROF.CHARLES SOLUDO RETAINED
ME AS HIS CONFIDENTIAL SECRETARY.
I HAVE THEREFORE DECIDED TO REVEAL THIS SECRET TO YOU NOW THAT MY FORMER
BOSS CHIEF PAUL OGWUMA AND CHIEF JOSEPH SANUSI HAS RESIGNED. THEY ACTUALLY
RESIGNED LARGELY DUE TO WHAT I HAVE TO REVEAL TO YOU NOW. THE ACTUAL CAUSE
OF THE DELAY IN RELEASING YOUR FUND HAS BEEN THAT MY FORMER BOSS AND OTHER
OFFICIALS CONCERNED WITH THE RELEASE OF YOUR FUND ACTUALLY CONSPIRED TO
DIVERT YOUR FUND TO ANOTHER ACCOUNT INSTEAD OF YOUR NOMINATED BANK ACCOUNT.
THE SEVERAL CHARGES AND FEES BEING DEMANDED FROM YOU ALL THIS WHILE WAS
MEAN TO FRUSTRATE YOU SO THAT YOU WILL ABANDON THE PAYMENT. BY THIS, YOUR
FUND WOULD BE TERMED UNCLAIMED THEREBY GIVING THEM THE OPPORTUNITY TO
TRANSFER YOUR FUND TO THEIR CODED ACCOUNT TO BE SHARED AMONG
THEMSELVES.
OUR PRESIDENT, CHIEF OLUSEGUN OBASANJO IN THE PAST ORDERED THAT ALL
CONTRACTORS SHOULLD BE PAID ALL THEIR CONTRACT BENEFITS EVEN IF NOT ALL AT
ONCE BUT PART OF IT, GOING BY THIS INSTRUCTIONS, YOU WERE ONE OF THE
CONTRACTORS MAPPED OUT TO BE PAID A PART PAYMENT OF US$7.5MILLION BUT THIS,
MY FORMER BOSS IGNORED. THE CODED ACCOUNT WHERE CHIEF SANUSI AND HIS
COLLEAGUES WANTED TO DEPOSIT YOUR FUND IS IN GERMANY. THEY SUCCEEDED IN
DIVERTING SOME FUNDS BELONGING TO FOREIGNERS TO THAT ACCOUNT, THE MOST
RECENT BEING THAT OF ONE MR. MICHAEL T. HALL OF THE USA. THEY ALSO DESTROYED
CERTAIN VITAL DOCUMENTS IN YOUR FILE TO AVOID THE FRAUD BEING DETECTED.
NOW THAT A NEW GOVERNOR HAS BEEN APPOINTED FOR THE CBN, ALL TRANSFERS OF
FUNDS FROM CENTRAL BANK OF NIGERIA HAVE BEEN HALTED, THE CENTRAL BANK OF
NIGERIA IS NOT IN THE POSITION TO TRANSFER FUNDS AGAIN, RATHER, THEY WILL
GIVE INSTRUCTION TO A COMMERCIAL BANK TO MAKE THE FINAL TRANSFER OF
US$7.5MILLION TO YOUR BANK ACCOUNT. I AM BEING ASKED TO PRESENT THE LIST OF
GENUINE PEOPLE THAT ARE OWED SO THAT THE PART PAYMENT CAN BE MADE TO THEM AS
SOON AS POSSIBLE. NOTE THAT THE ONLY PERSON MANDATED TO TAKE CARE OF THIS
EXERCISE IS THE NEW DIRECTOR OF FOREIGN PAYMENT AUTHORIZATION OFFICE, THE
PRESIDENCY, DR.
PATRICK ORKAR, HE IS TO AUTHORIZE YOUR PAYMENT ACCORDINGLY AFTER
VERIFICATION AND PROPER HANDLING.
ENDEAVOUR TO CONTACT DR. PATRICK ORKAR AND CLAIM YOUR US$7.5MILLION(SEVEN
MILION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND UNITED STATES DOLLARS) AFTER PROPER
AUTHORIZATION AND HANDLING IS DONE THROUGH HIS OFFICE.YOU SHOULD IMMEDIATELY
CONTACT DR.PATRICK ORKAR ON HIS DIRECT EMAIL: porkar234@yahoo.com OR ON
HIS DIRECT TELE/FAX LINE: +234-1-759-1127
