Subject: URGENT FUND TRANSFER OF $34.5M USD INTO YOUR BANK ACCOUNT.
Attention: My good friend,
My names are senator Victor Ndoma-Egba, chairman ad-hoc committee for the investigation of gross mis-application, mis-appropriation and embezzlement of petroleum technology development funds(PTDF) created for the financing of contracts and other projects. After six months of thorough investigations our findings were perfect, painstaking and sustained.Between 2001-04 various contracts were awarded to both foreign and local contractors, duely approved by the presidency. Our committee found as fact that:
1. On July 16, 2003, the sum of USD110million was placed by the PTDF with Trans International Bank(TIB).
2. On December 24, 2003, the sum of USD34.5million was placed by the PTDF with the African Development Bank(ADB).
3. On October 20, 2003 TAB advanced a loan of USD5.4million to NDTV, a business concern promoted by a local businessman, Otunba Fasawe.
4. On October 22, 2003, TIB again advanced a loan of USD6.2million to Mofas shipping company, another business concern promoted by Otunba Fasawe.
5. On October 23, 2003, TIB advanced a loan of USD4million to Transvari services limited, a business concern promoted by an Indian, Ahmed Vanderpuye.
These funds were grossly mis-applicated and mis-appropriated by a top Government official in the presidency(names with-held for security reasons) and his collaborators of which Otunba Fasawe happens to be one of them. Though some contractors were paid for contracts executed from the usd110million placed in the TIB, while some are yet to be paid. The usd34.5million placed in the ADB, accrued to no contractor, but simply kept so that it could end up in the private pockets of this top Government official and his collaborators whom are all under our investigation and they all denied the knowledge of this funds.
Viewing this as a time of opportunity, i and two members of the committee have decided to keep the knowledge and existence of this funds to ourselves, but have revealed it to you based on the premise that you will keep it to yourself and not reveal it to someone else . You may say those that are employed to quash crimes are getting involved themselves, i am sorry to say this, it is due to the harsh economy system in my country and i have got kids to raise and i want the best for them. I am a devout christian, but opportunities like this avail itself once in a life time and i have decided to make good use of it with your help.
With the powers conferred on this committee, we will with your consent forward your names through official protocol to the ADB as the rightful beneficiary to this funds(USD34.5million) upon which it shall be transferred to your bank account abroad. Please notify me of your acceptance to carry out this transaction through my private email address: senatorvndomaegba@yahoo.co.uk and provide me with your full contact information as contained below:
1. Your full names,
2. Nationality,
3. Home address,
4. Telephone number,
5. Date of birth,
6. Marital status
7. Profession.
If eventually we succeed in getting this funds transferred to your bank account, we shall be travelling down to your country to pick our own share of the funds and proceed to preferred destinations abroad or better still invest ours in viable businesses in your country with you as a reliable guide.
The agreed sharing ratio goes thus 65% for me and my colleagues, 30% for you and 5% for expenses incurred during the course of this transaction. Note that all risk involvement were carefully taken care of before contacting you and only your matured co-operation and honesty will help us to attain our set objective.I anticipate your earnest response.
Yours faithfully,
Senator Victor Ndoma-Egba.
