Dear Friend,
REQUEST FOR URGENT MUTUAL BUSINESS TRANSACTION.
Although this proposal might come to you as a surprise since it is coming
from someone you don't know or ever seen before, but after due deliberation
with my colleagues, we have decided to forward this business proposal to
you. We want a reliable person who would assist us to transfer the sum of
USD$37.4Million (Thirty Seven million Four Hundred thousand United States
Dollars)into his or her nominated bank Account. This fund resulted from an
over-invoiced bill from contract awarded by us under the budget allocation
to my organization{NNPC}of
Turn Around Maintainace and the bill was approved for payment by the
appropriate authorities. The contract was executed, commissioned and the
contractor was duly paid his full cos!t of the contract as stipulated in the
contract agreement leaving behind the USD$37.4M. as an over-invoiced for us
as agreed.
............................................................
Therefore, the over-invoiced Amount of USD$37.4M which we have deliberately
over estimated for our own use is what we need your assistance for transfer
and for our mutual benefits. Due to the civil services code of conduct here
in Nigeria, civil servants are not allowed to operate or own foreign
account. This is why we are contacting you for assistance in this regard. We
have agreed to share
the money as fo{1llows. }.
{1.} 30% for your assistance/account
{2.} 60% for US,
{3.} 10% for taxes/expenses,
as may be required by your Government and ours. As you may want to know and
make you less curious, I got your address from a reputable Large chamber of
commerce and industry and I am the executive chairman of the contract Award
committee of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corp!oration (NNPC). This
transaction is very much free from all sort of risk hence this business was
carefully planned before it was successfully executed and we the NNPC
officials involved in this deal have put in many years of meritorious
service to our organization and they wish to retire and start a new life
with their of this transaction.
............................................................
We have been exercising patience for this opportunity for so long and for
most of us this is a life time opportunity we cannot afford to miss. To get
this fund into your account, we have to present an international business
outfit and consequent upon indication of your interest to fully assist us in
this transaction, you are required to furnish us with the followings{A)Your

payment information data will be faxed immediately to you for completion.
............................................................
Myself and our lawyer involved in this deal will come to your country to
arrange for our shares upon confirmation from you that the money has been
credited into your nominated bank account. All these will only take us about
{14}Fourteen working days to transfer this fund into your account from the
day we receive the requested information from you. Your line of business in
this transaction does not matter. Honesty and your ability to keep this
transaction highly confidential/secret and keep our own shares safe when the
