ATTENTION: DEAREST ONE,
YOUR ESTEEMED PARTICULARS WERE CONFIDENTIALLY OBTAINED FOR THE PURPOSES OF SOLICITING FOR YOUR ASSISTANCE, CO-OPERATION AND SUPPORT FOR A MUTUAL BUSINESS TRANSACTION. MY NAME IS JOHNSON P. OBI, CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER(CFO) OF NIGERIAN NATIONAL PETROLEUM CORPORATION LIMITED(NNPCL) IN THE FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF NIGERIA. I HAVE BEEN MANDATED TO MAKE A SIMPLE AND INFORMAL CONTACT WITH YOU ON BEHALF OF MY COLLEAGUES AND MYSELF WITH A VIEW TO SOLICITING FOR YOUR SUPPORT AND COOPERATION IN THE TRANSFER OF OUR $137,000,000.00 USD (ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY-SEVEN MILLION UNITED STATES DOLLARS ONLY) TO YOUR NOMINATED BANK ACCOUNT WITH YOU ACTING AS THE BENEFICIARY. THIS FUND EMANATED FROM A DELIBERATE OVER-INVOICED PAY VOUCHER OF AN ALREADY EXECUTED, PAID AND COMMISSIONED FOREIGN CONTRACT.
INTERESTINGLY, THE ORIGINAL CONTRACTORS ARE NOT AWARE OF THIS MARK UP OF THE PAY VOUCHER DILIGENTLY CARRIED OUT BY MY COLLEAGUES AND MY HUMBLE SELF (WHO ARE PRINCIPALLY IN CHARGE OF CONTRACT PAYMENTS IN OUR MINISTRY). SINCE WE INTENDED TO HAVE THE FUND PAID TO OURSELVES THROUGH THE ASSISTANCE OF A FOREIGN PARTNER INDEPENDENT OF THE INITIAL CONTRACTORS. POINTEDLY, IT IS IN OUR EFFORTS TO HAVE THIS FUND TRANSFERRED INTO A FOREIGN NEUTRAL ACCOUNT AS PAYMENT FOR FOREIGN CONTRACT DULY EXECUTED BY OUR PROSPECTIVE PARTNER THAT I WAS MANDATED BY MY COLLEAGUES TO SOLICIT FOR YOUR CO-OPERATION IN THAT REGARD. IN EFFECT, WE REQUEST THAT YOU ASSIST US IN ACHIEVING THIS SET GOAL WHICH IS MUTUALLY BENEFICIAL BY FURNISHING US WITH YOUR DETAILED PARTICULARS: SUCH AS NAMES, ADDRESS, TELEPHONE AND FAX NUMBERS AND YOUR SECURED E-MAIL ADDRESS FOR THE PURPOSE OF OUR PUTTING UP CLAIMS IN YOUR NAME AS THE EXECUTOR OF THE CONTRACT FOR THE $137 MILLION USD AND OF COURSE, THE BENEFICIARY OF THE PAYMENT.
ESSENTIALLY, WE ARE NOW PARTNERS IN PROGRESS FOR THIS BUSINESS, BECAUSE IT TAKES TWO TO TANGO. SIGNIFICANTLY, YOU WILL BE ADEQUATELY REWARDED FOR YOUR GESTURE, ASSISTANCE AND EFFORTS.
SPECIFICALLY, YOU WILL KEEP 30% OF THE FUND AS YOUR COMMISSION WHILE THE BALANCE WILL BE PAID TO US FROM YOUR ACCOUNT PRIOR TO THE REIMBURSEMENT OF ALL OPERATIONAL EXPENSES THAT BOTH PARTIES MAY HAVE INCURRED IN THE COURSE OF THE TRANSACTION. I AM DELIGHTED TO INFORM YOU THAT WE HAVE PLACED ALL NECESSARY MACHINERY IN MOTION FOR A VERY SUCCESSFUL, SMOOTH AND SWIFT TRANSACTION. CONSEQUENTLY, I WOULD LIKE TO ASSURE YOU THAT THE TRANSACTION IS TOTALLY RISK FREE ON BOTH SIDES. THIS IS BECAUSE WE WILL BE WORKING AND ACTING ON A FAMILIAR TERRAIN AND WE WILL BRING OUR EXPERIENCE TO BEAR ON THE TRANSACTION. HOWEVER, YOU ARE EXPECTED TO KEEP THE BUSINESS AS CONFIDENTIAL AS POSSIBLE FOR OBVIOUS REASONS.
I LOOK FORWARD TO HEARING POSITIVELY AND URGENTLY FROM YOU, WHILE ASSURING YOU ON BEHALF OF MY COLLEAGUES AND MYSELF OF A REWARDING, RESOUNDING AND REMARKABLE BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP WITH YOU.
REGARDS,
JOHNSON P.B OBI.
