Subject: CONFIDENTIAL AND URGENT MESSAGE
From Eng. Kaita Cisse
Chairman Ecowas Contract Awarding Commitee.
Cote d' Ivoire Chapter .
CONFIDENTIAL AND URGENT MESSAGE:
Dear Sir/Madam
May I use this medium to introduce to you a business transaction which will yield to mutual benefit. Before I proceed, I will not forget to tell you where I got your mail contact and also introduce myself to you. I got your email contact from my private search in the internet as I was searching for someone to propose for this transaction.
My name is Eng. Kaita Cisse, the Executive chairman of the Economic Community of west African States Contract Awarding Committee, Cote d'ivoire Chapter. The mission of the commitee is the awarding of approved contracts to contractors for the developement of west Africa, it is sponssored by the world bank and the IMF.
Under my chairmanship, many contracts have been awarded and implemented by both local and foreign contractors. On the 21st of february 2001, a contract was awarded to an Ivoirian local contractor for the building of 115 primary schools around the country, This contract was at the value of US$ 27.5 million dollars. After one week of the award of the contract, the contractor came back to meet me and told me confidently that he cannot finance the completion of the contract, meaning he was financially incapable to implement the contract. So in that developement I told him that we shall look for a foreign contractor who can handle the contract. After two weeks, we got a Chinese contractor who was interested in doing the contract, we negotiated with him and he accepted to do the contract for US$ 17 million dollars.
Since then, we have been patiently waiting for the completion of the contract and the payment of the Chinese contractor. Now the contract have been finalised and the contractor have been paid, we now have US$ 10.5 million dollars in a suspense account in the bank here in Abidjan, Cote D'Ivoire. I solicit your assistance to assist us transfer this fund into your bank account.
Please for your information, I have every power to transfer this fund myself to any account, but due to the fact that the contract money must be paid into a foreign account because it falls in Category "B" which is only for foreign contractors.
I and my partner have agreed to negotiate your compensation with you immediately we receive your email showing your interest to assist. We will be glad to receive an urgent positive response from you to enable us commence the transaction without any delay.
Awaiting your urgent response.
Eng.Kaita Cisse
