Subject: HELLO C.E.O, THIS FUND IS READY FOR TRANSFER
Dear Chief Executive Officer,
Please don't see the under mentioned text for amount of US$45,250,000 as a waste of time and unsolicited message to you. It is not scam in any way. It has no breach to law. It is absolutely legit and real to the core for you and I to amicably share. I am MR. LEVI YAKASSI, Managing Director, Railway Transport Corporation (RTC). The subject issue I want to honestly and sincerely like to share with you is the Sum of US$45,250,000 (Forty Five Million Two Hundred And Fifty Thousand United States Dollars). The money came as a result of a deliberate Over Invoice from an awarded and executed contract of laying of Rail lines and replacement of some Train Locomotive Engines for the Corporation. This US$45,250,000.00 is already been deposited in a Financial Security Organization in the U.S.A with your name as the rightful owner of the money, with reference that you will request for the wire transfer of the money to your own account this month. My sincere reasons and genuine intentions to deposit the quoted amount with your name in U.S before getting your consent for it is to avoid been quarried by the ADHOC FINANCIAL INSPECTORATE COMMITTEE of the Senate for not have paid off the quoted amount to it's beneficiary based on the payment memo I sent for its endorsement to the Senate which they did endorsed and then instruct the local bank here to push the money off to wherever I might instruct them to do so for its beneficiary. The main contractor who did the contract had actually been paid off as well and he had also sent an acknowledgment letter of appreciation to my office for onward to the Senate for approving and paying him in time through my office where the contract was awarded to him. The proof of risk free on this 100% legit transaction is the endorsement of it by the same ADHOC FINANCIAL INSPECTORATE COMMITTEE and the Senate through which I was given a clean bill of stewardship for Excellency and Accountability in handling Government funds, properties and other social interest of the corporation. Upon your urgent return mail, I will send you an issued receipt with Reference Secret Payment Code and Pin Numbers issued for the Deposited fund by the Security Organization for easy claim of the money by you as the sole beneficiary of it. You and I will share the fund as follows: You as my foreign partner shall be entitled with 45%, 5% for settlement of any bills during the transaction while 50% shall be mine. On your return mail please do include your reachable telephone number for an urgent communication. Your interest is being awaited as I hope you will. Best Regards, MR. LEVI YAKASSI.MANAGING DIRECTORR.T.C.
