Dear Sir/Madam
After a serious thought I decided to reach you directly and personally
because I do not have anything against you but your Nigeria partners.
I am the director of the central computer/monitoring unit of the central
bank of Nigeria. Sometime in the past, your Nigeria partners approached
me through a friend of mine and requested that I should assist them to
conclude a money transfer deal.
They gave me your name,company’s name,and bank particulars and told me
to put them into our computer system in the central computing unit so
that it will appear as if you are one of the genuine Legal Beneficiary
that have been cleared for payment.
According to them, they wanted to use this strategy to transfer a huge
amount of money which they accumulated through inflated contract awards
and abandon Next of Kin Funds/Lott Funds and the money has been floating
in the CBN since then.
The original Beneficiaries have been paid so they wanted to use your
account to transfer the surplus out of Nigeria. We agreed that once I do
this, they would give me us$100,000.00 and give me another us$100,000.00
when I release the fund to your account.
When they saw that I have done that and your name has been approved
among the list of those to be paid, instead of giving me the agreed
deposit,they started avoiding me and resorted to threat. I immediately
deleted the transfer code of the fund which is only known to me as
regards to my dutyand released other que fund without yours.
They became angered, the more when they saw that their threat did not
work and started bribing other officials to get another approval to
transfer the money to you without success, approvals are free, is it not
funny that a contractor is being asked to pay one tax and levy or the
other while his millions are here with us, why not deduct.
I am 100% responsible for the delay and obstructions because of their
breach of contract. If you doubt what I have just told you, pay any
amount they will ask you to pay now. After a short time, they will come
up with another reason to pay again and it goes on an on, they are
simply wicked and do not know where their problem lies.
Now, if you want us to work together, these are my conditions: -
i. I will have 30% of the money because it is only the two of us left
from now.
ii. As you have seen, it will useless and a more waste of money if you
continue with any other person, so we will conclude the transaction with
utmost secrecy.
If these conditions are acceptable to you, contact me as soon as
possible to let us finalize. But if you are not interested, I advise you
to forget the fund as it will be transferred into the federal government
of Nigeria consolidated national reserve account.
Best regards,Mr. Idrisa AbdullahiDirector, central computing/monitoring unit.e-mail: directorateofinternational@pc.nu
