Subject: GOOD DAY,
*For Your Kind Attention ,
I am Architect. Adar Jacob Project Commissioner with the Niger Delta
Development Commission (NDDC) who heads a Three-man tenders committee in
charge of Contract Awards Review and Payment Approvals(CRPAC).I came to know
of your name and address in my search for a reliable and dependable person
to handle a very confidential transaction based on unflinching trust as we
have not met before. This transaction involves the transfer of huge sum of
foreign exchange to a foreign account.
There were a series of contracts executed by a Consortium of Multinationals
and Local Contractors in favor of ((NDDC) among which are:
(1) The expansion and rehabilitation of Lot1 Blocks A and AB at Mein G/S
Burutu in Delta State US$8.2Million
(2) Construction and rehabilitation blocks of classrooms/construction of
boreholes (water projects)in Bayelsa State.
(3) The construction of storage tanks and maintenance and servicing of old
ones for Petroleum Products Storage (Depots) - US$20 Million
(4) The construction of Forcados Hospital Jetty, Offshore
facility/construction of Road networks and Electrification of the
Niger-Delta areas to the National grid-US$27.6Million.
The original value of these contracts was deliberately over-invoiced in the
sum of USD eleven Million, Six Hundred and Fifty Thousand (US$11,650,000.00)
by this committee (CRPAC) during the awards of the various contracts. This
sum (US$11,650,000.00) has now been approved for payment by this committee
(CRPAC) and is now ready to be transferred by this Commission to the account
of an individual and or company which the CRPAC presents as the beneficiary,
since the company
that actually executed these contracts has been fully paid their fund and
the projects have been officially commissioned.
Consequently, my colleagues and I are willing to transfer the total amount
to your account for subsequent disbursement on our behalf, since we as civil
servants and we are also serving in a sensitive foreign payment approval
committee (CRPAC) are prohibited by the Code of Conduct Bureau (Civil
Service Laws) from opening or operating foreign account and or dealing in
foreign exchange in our names.
Needless to say, the trust reposed in you at this juncture is enormous.
In return, we have agreed to offer you 35% of the transferred sum; while 5%
shall be set aside for incidental expenses (internal and external) accrued
between both parties in the course of the transaction.The balance will be
used to purchase agricultural
equipments and Allied products from your country for importation back to my
country.
You must however note that this transaction is subject to the following
terms and conditions:
a) Our conviction of your transparency, honesty and diligence
b) That you would treat this transaction with utmost secrecy and
confidentiality
c) That you have an unflinching trust in us, and our ability to complete all
official processes with your co-operation.
(d) That the funds would be transferred to an ordinary account that you have
total control over.
Modalities have been worked out (secretly) at the highest levels of the
relevant government departments involved and the Country's apex bank for the
immediate transfer of funds within 14 working days subject to your
satisfaction of the above stated terms. Our assurance is that your role is
risk-free. To accord this transaction the legality it deserved and for
mutual security of the fund, the whole approval procedures will be
officially and legally processed with your name or the name of any company
you may nominate as the bonafide beneficiary, as in an ideal situation.
It is imperative that you bear in mind that having put in 19 years in the
service of the government, I am averse to having my image and career dented.
This matter should therefore be treated with utmost secrecy and urgency.
Note: Should you require a true copy of my identity as a proof that this
transaction is for "REAL AND GENUINE", I am obligated to forward my valid
International Passport to you as a mark of trust and good will that I know
you will keep with utmost confidentiality?
Kindly expedite action by contacting me on my direct email:
adarjacob1@jmail.co.za, indicating your interest in this transaction. For
swift response to your reply, kindly indicate your fax and telephone numbers
clearly so that I can explain further, especially by fax. I am urgently
waiting your reply as payment to foreign contractors is usually made on
quarterly basis.
Yours faithfully,
Adar Jacob
