ATTENTION!!!
BUSINESS PROPOSAL

I am Mr. Andrew Yakubu an accountant with NNPC , a senior member of its contract award committee board and a key member of the Federal Contract Award Committee to the NNPC.

I do have an urgent need for a trust worthy foreign contact person with whom I can carry out a successful business deal. Four of our Refineries and one Liquefied Natural Gas Plant have been bad all these years, and now the Present Elected Democratic Government has voted the sum of US$1..86 Billion for the repairs and turn around maintenance.

In view of this, we have started awarding new contracts to that effect. As an incentive to do a good job and finished promptly, the Federal Government makes 75% upfront payment to successful bidders. Looking at what has been happening in Nigeria and other African Countries, every wise businessman and Government Official is trying to push out any money he can lay his hands on so that in case anything happens, they will have something they can fall back on and be rest assured overseas on retirement.

Based on this, we wish to transfer US$85.050 for disbursement that we have just secured access to push out. But because we are citizen and still working as a civil servant, we cannot move this money out ourselves. Though we have made an attempt before which was an unsuccessful cash movement of US$800 million that was disrupt at the Murtala Mohammed International Airport On August 12, 1995 by the Nigerian Customs and Air- port Security Officials, hence we decide now to carry out this project via TELEGRAPHIC TRANSFER.

At this point in time we therefore need an honest, trustworthy and reliable assistance of a foreigner who will be a kind and honest person to us and will not disappoint us at the end of this transaction. I want you to summit immediately your complete Company name and address if you have one, your name as President or Managing Director / C.E.O of the company, your Banking Particulars:- (Banks Name & Address, Telephone, Fax and Telex numbers. Your Receiving Account Numbers, Swift and Routing Numbers). With this information, I can get you properly registered as one of the contractors to NNPC who has already been awarded this contract for the sum of US$113.4 million to supply, install and service some of the REFINERIES PLANTS PARTS which documents I already have in my custody.

After receiving the above needed and stated information from you, I will process all the documentation in your name through an attorney, and summit them for immediate approvals, and the Federal Government will pay 75% of the total sum of US$113.4M into your given account. In no time, the remaining of the US$28.35 Million shall be paid as balance payment or we together in agreement as partners will use another foreign firm's name that will carry out the plants servicing documentation as a sub-contractor to your company in our follow up documentation to receive the balance payment. I shall come to your Country immediately this fund is in your account to share the US$85.05 million.

The sharing pattern is as follows:- We will give to you 25% of the total sum, 5% will be set aside for all expenses incurred during the transacting period and 70% will be for me and my colleague.

However, be rest assured that no risk is involved or any scandal in the future, for we have done all our homework very well, nobody will be hunt or hurt during and after this transaction.

It may also please you to know that all the GOODS that covers the 75% payment of this contract had earlier been supplied by other contractors whose contract were cancelled half way during the past Military Regime Of Gen. Sanni Abacha. No record of this exists anywhere only the two of us that are key members of the contract board committee has this knowledge and information so there is the serious need to keep this transaction secret and very confidential.

To that effect, I would require your private phone and fax numbers for easy and confidential communication.. I await your immediate respond to this PROPOSAL. Through my private e-mail Address: andrewyakubu43@gmail.com

Meanwhile, I look forward to establishing a life long business relationship with you.

Best regards.
Mr Andrew Yakubu
