Hello Dear Friend,
We offered Grant of US$250 million dollar for
Farmers, Ranchers, and Small scale Entrepreneur
from the Directorate of Project Development
(DOPD). This Grant is for Experienced Farmers,
Ranchers and Small Scale Entrepreneurs who are
unable to obtain financing from commercial
credit sources. Loan amounts range from
$500,000.00 to $2,000,000.00 and $2,000,000.00
to $5,000,000.00 (Amount Varies Based on
Applicant Capability) Ministry of National
Development (MOND) is the sponsor of this
facility.
REASON FOR CONTACTING YOU:
My name is Mr. Uwem Kidjo the Deputy Governor
Financial Sector Surveillance Central Bank of
Benin. Last year I made an arrangement with one
Mr. Michael McNulty a national of the United
States of America in the state of Wisconsin to
hold on my behalf the sum of $15.2Million to be
used for investment, the money was slated to
move in two phase of $7.5Million at each phase.
We worked together and obtainedall the papers
needed to transfer the first $7.5Million but as
soon as the fund was confirmed in his bank
account he disconnected his phone line 715 694
5761 and disappeared. He was staying at #45,
Peterson Rd,Black River Falls, Wisconsin.
My tenure as the Deputy Governor Financial
Sector Surveillance Central Bank of Benin will
very soon and I don't want the opportunity I
have here in making myself rich to be wasted
hence I am contacting you to work with me and
keep on my behalf for investment the balances
sum $7.7Million. As a civil servant still under
services of my government I am barred from
operating foreign account and I would not
deposit this amount in my local account here
because I had declared my asset
immediately I was appointed into my present
position.
I will make you my investment manager after a
commission of $2.2Million from the $7.7Million
for your kind help and I pray I will not be
disappointed again. I seek for your corporation
and sincerity towards this business.
Please contact me immediately via email: (
mruwem@m6mail.fr ) with your complete
names and numbers (Phone and Fax) and I will get
back to you explaining areas you felt you want
to know better.
Expecting your urgent response.
Yours faithfully,
Mr. Uwem Kidjo
