Nigeria concerned with foreign contract payments,and I am the final
signatory to all foreign transfers of huge funds moving within banks both
the local and international levels inline to foreign contracts settlement.
I have before me the list of foreign contract payment files,which are due to
be transferred to theirnominated accounts. Meanwhile, we identified some of
these accounts to be ghost accounts,unclaimed deposits and over-invoiced sum
etc.i want to add your name among the under listed contractors expecting
their funds to be transferred into their accounts, on this note; I wish to
have a deal with you as regards to the unpaid fund.
I have the file before me and hope they data's are correct and un-tampered
unless you reconfirm your banking details for me to properly authenticate
them. 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 two
days ago from the Senate Committee on Contract Payments/ Foreign Debts to
submit the List of payment reports expenditures and audited reports of
revenues. Among several others, I have decided to remit the contract sum to
your nominated account following my idea that we have a deal/agreement and I
am going to perfect the paperwork legally.
MY CONDITIONS

after you have confirmed the transfer of the fund 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 private email /telephone and fax, for security purposes.
3. There should be no other third parties as most problems associated with
such payments are caused by their agents or representatives.
If you AGREE with my conditions, l will advise you on the nextline of action
on my private E-mail contact: ad_oluola@mail.com and immediately the fund
transfer will commence without further delay as I would proceed to fix your
name on the Payment schedule instantly to meet the 10 working days.
