Subject: Dear Beloved
Dear Beloved,
I am Mr. Isaac Wilson, a clerk with the defunct Contract Review Committee of the Aluminum Smelter Company of Nigeria, where the Federal Government of Nigeria invested well-over of 4.4Billion Euro equivalent and additional US$150M which completed the project before our committee was inaugurated which I was privileged to be a member of this Committee though in a low cadre to investigate the contract project. I was a well placed civil servant with the Office of the Accountant General of the Federation then in Nigeria.
And with my position as a clerk in the house, many of the political appointees within the umbrella body neglected me which accounted for the privileged information am about to share with you as it will be of mutual benefit to the both of us if well harnessed asI discovered some manipulated Funds floating in the Suspense Account and the only account permitted to accommodate these Funds must belong to a foreigner, so I cannot transfer these funds into my local accounts and this is why I approached a trusted colleague in the office of the Auditor General of the Federation over my discovery and we both agreed to solicit external / oversea support/ partner like you that will enhance the smooth delivery of this blessed project whose total sum is US$ 55.5M (Fifty Five Million, Five Hundred Thousand United State Dollars) only
Presently, this said fund is deposited with the Central Bank of Nigeria but, could be paid to you through any of the Off-shore Payment Centres affiliated to the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN).
Now the deal is that I and my colleagues intend to transfer the above mentioned sum into your account thus, we have decided to use the better part of our shares/fund in a lucrative venture under your tutelage in a Country where the incidence of taxation does not take much toll..
As per the disbursement, I and my colleague have agreed to give you being the account owner (15%) of the total fund and (5%) to defray taxation/expenses both local / foreign.( 80%) for myself / colleague 70% of our share is expected to be put into a 21 year long investment program as shall be drawn in an agreement by our chosen attorney.
Please know that confidentiality is our watchword in this transaction and I want you to know that you are to deal as the beneficiary or the authorized Next of Kin to the Funds as you shall be informed and this transaction is 100% safe/hitch free.
Please where interest is indicated, do send to me all your contact addresses, phones, mobile/ fax numbers and your banking particulars as this will help our documentations and enhance easy communications with you.
I am at your disposal to entertain any question(s) from you with respect to this mutual understanding – And do know my good partner that this transaction is sure to be concluded within (14) banking days as soon as I receive your full details.
Please treat with strict confidentiality and utmost urgency.
