Subject: FROM MALAYSIA
December 28, 2006.
Dear Sir,
I am Mr. M. M. Aliu, a citizen of the Republic of Nigeria, though I am now temporarily residing here in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia from where I am sending you this email now.
It is most certain that you have in the past, received tons of junk emails with all kinds of bogus propositions, and sent out from around the world including Africa.
Please, I want to assure you that I am real and ready to meet you here in Malaysia in person. I am not asking you to send me money. I am rather asking to meet you in Person.
This is a very sensitive information that I am about to share with you in this email. And I sincerely appeal that you treat it with utmost care and confidentiality.
I arrived Malaysia on November 30, 2006 and since then, been staying here under the UNHRC support and protection.
Before this time, I was the accountant in the Petroleum Trust Development Fund (PTDF), while the Vice Present of the Republic of Nigeria; Alhaji Abubakar Atiku, was the chairman.
I am sure that you are aware that a big power tussle and political ware fare has been going on between the President of Nigeria, and his deputy (vice). The problem has spilled over and is now threatening to those of us around the Vice President.
A wise saying is our place says that “where two elephants fight, the grass suffer”
The problem actually started when the Vice President joined forces with the Legislature and other political progressives to stop the President from amending the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, which would have made him a life President.
This means he would have remained the President of Nigeria till death.
So since then, President Obasanjo has openly sworn that he would never live to be succeeded by the Vice President. On this note, the President has made use of all Government machineries at his disposal, to try to destroy the Vice President Atiku, his political associates and everybody that has worked for or around the vice president.
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) of Nigeria - which has been the President's tool of intimidation, oppression and persecution, has done everything possible in their effort to pin corruption charges on the Vice President in other to get him impeached.
But all their efforts have always failed, and each time the Vice President was dragged to the Legislature, the case has always been thrown out for lack of merit.
Recently, the Government Probed the PTDF and came up with allegation that the PTDF management was corrupt and declared that One Hundred Million (US$100.000.000.00) was mission from the coffers of the PTDF.
I have to tell you the truth. It is a known fact everywhere in the world that anybody in the position of power or around the position of Power, directly or indirectly uses it to enrich himself. So I can't say that we did not take some money from the Petroleum Trust Development Fund (PTDF).
We all stole from the PTDF. When I say we all; it includes the President himself, his personal aides and all the ministers.
That was why the President quickly ordered the security agents to raid the PTDF office, and our homes. They carted away all files, documents and the computers, all in their effort to destroy all the record of payments made to the President's associates and cronies.
We paid out over Five Hundred Million U.S Dollars to undeclared interests of the President, on his personal and direct instruction.
But he was very smart and have all documents and records seized before going public to accuse the management of the PTDF corruption and embezzlement.
So the EFCC again was ordered to round up the PTDF top management.
I got the information from my intelligence source and immediately left the country through the seme Border to Benin Republic from where I arrived Malaysia.
I left Nigeria with a cash sum of Seventeen Million United States Dollars (US$17,000,000.00), which has successfully arrived Malaysia. I moved the fund through a source in a world Body, which branch office is also here in Malaysia.
I actually made all the necessary payments at the dispatch point. But on reaching here, the person here who is supposed to deliver the fund to me here, said he was instructed that I would settle him here before he hands over the trunk to me.
This is how I found myself in this situation.
So, I hereby solicit for your assistance to recover the fund here, and to work together with you to relocate it to Korea for Investment.
I am not asking you to come and do any paper work for me, or to help me claim the money. The money has already arrived Malaysia, and it is in cash as you would see it when you arrive.
There are no protocols. I simply have to get him settled and he hands over my trunk to me immediately.
I know you are located a few hours flight away from Malaysia. So I know as I hope that you would help me and accept my hand of partnership in the recovery of the fund.
You would take 25% of the fund for assisting me to recover the fund (trunk), and for working with me to relocate it to Korea and investing it there.
Please I need to hear from you urgently. Mail me immediately at malium@voila.fr, and you can call me on my mobile number. +60146224395.
Thanks and yours Sincerely,
M.M. Aliu
