Subject: Hello
Hello
I am Dr. Rozo Dickson, I need your services in a
confidential matter regarding money transfer. This
requires a private arrangement and l want to use this
opportunity to elaborate more about this proposal to
you for your clearer understanding. As a member of
Contract Award & Payment Committee of Senegal National
Petroleum Corporation (SNPC), the promptness of this
letter is anchored on our strong desire and motivation
to establish a cordial business relationship with you.
In view of my position together with my colleagues, we
wish to have personal business relationship with an
honest and trustworthy foreign firm and we felt to
approach an interested foreign partner.
This amount to be transferred into your account
accrued from over-invoiced contract amount for the
construction of Oil Refinery Sub-Station in Senegal
(Northern Region) in 1996 to expatriate companies.The
contract which was originally valued for (One Hundred
and Twenty Seven Million, Seven Hundred Thousand U.S.
Dollars) US$127,700,000.00 was manipulated to read One
hundred and thirty seven million, seven hundred
thousand US
Dollars(US$137,700,000.00). The extra US$10,000.000.00
is what we want to transfer to your account.
This contract has been completely executed and the
contractors had been paid all their contract bills
remaining this deliberate inflated value of
$10,000.000.00 USD. Being civil servants, we are not
permitted by civil service code of conducts to operate
any foreign account, hence l have contacted you. All l
want from you is an assistance to receive this money
into your account
on our behalf. After the transfer, 30% of the money is
for you, 60% for us and 10% shall be used for
re-imbursement of any expenses both parties might
incure locally or internationally in the course of the
transfer
To facilitate this payment by T.T (Telegraphic
Transfer) into your bank account as the beneficiary
company who handled a sub-contract and to enable us
remit this money out of Senegal.
These are the necessary requirements we needed from
you to complete this transaction: -
1. Your company`s name/address and your private
telephone/fax numbers.
2. Your bank full Name/address, telephone/fax numbers,
your bank account number where the money
will be remitted. You can however open a new bank
account purposely for this deal.
The above-mentioned particulars will be used to write
LETTER OF CLAIM on behalf of your company as the
beneficiary of the fund. Already all arrangements have
been made regarding the transfer of this fund pending
of course the receipt of the above-mentioned
particulars from you.
There is no risk involved in this transaction as the
whole procedures have been mapped out and it will take
only seven (7) working days to complete this
transaction. Please do not hesitate to comply with my
request and remember that this business should be
handled secretly and confidentially, as we are
prominent personnel in the government office. It is
100% risk
free.
Thank you very much for your anticipated co-operation
and looking forward to your earliest possible reply.
Regards.
Dr Rozo Dickson
