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) $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 valueof $10,000.000.00 USD. Being civil servants, we are not permitted by civil service code of conductsto 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 pendin 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.
Engr Kamara Ahmed
