FEMI ABDUL DIRECTOR, PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION, NIGERIAN NATIONAL PETROLEUM CORPORATION. FALOMO OFFICE COMPLEX, IKOYI - LAGOS. DIRECT FAX: 234-1-7597198 Sir, A REQUEST FOR ASSISTANCE / CO-OPERATION It is my great pleasure in writing you this letter on behalf of my colleagues and I. Your particulars were given to me by a member of the Nigerian Export Promotion Council (NEPC) who was at the Federal Government Delegation to your country during a trade exhibition. I have decided to seek a confidential cooperation with you in the execution of the deal described here for the benefit of all parties involved and hope that you will keep it as top secret because of the nature of the business and the personalities involved. Within the Ministry of Petroleum Resources where I work as a Director, Project Implementation and with the cooperation of four other top officials, we have in our possession an overdue payment bills totaling Twenty-eight Million, Three Hundred and Sixty Thousand U.S. Dollars (US$28,360,000.00) which we want to transfer abroad with the assistance and cooperation of a trusted foreign firm or individual who will receive the said fund on our behalf into any account provided to receive such funds. We are handicapped in this deal because the Civil Service code of Conduct does not allow public servants like us to operate offshore account, hence your importance in the whole transaction. The US$28.360M represent a certain percentage of the total contract value executed on behalf of my Ministry by a foreign contracting firm which we the officials over-invoiced deliberately. Though the actual contract cost have been paid to the original contractor, leaving the balance in the tune of the said amount which we have gotten approval to remit by Telegraphic Transfer (T.T) to foreign bank account you will provide by filling in an application through my Ministry for the transfer of rights and privileges of the former contractor to you. Since the present new civilian government of my country is determined to pay every foreign contractor all debts owed, so as to maintain good relationship with foreign government and non-government financial agencies, we have decided to include our bill for approval with the cooperation of some officials from the relevant government Ministries which will be involved in the payment processes. We are seeking your assistance in providing a vital account into which we can remit this money by acting as our main partner and trustee or acting as the original contractor. This we can do by swapping of account and changing of beneficiary and other forms of documentation upon application for claim to reflect the payment and approvals to be secured on behalf of you. I have the authority of my partners involved to propose to you 30% of the US$28.360 Million if you should accept to assist us, 60% for us and 10% for taxation and miscellaneous expenses. The business is 100% safe on your part, but you have to keep it confidential. You should not disclose, or discuss this proposal with anybody no matter how close, for security reasons. Also, your area of specialization is not a hindrance to the successful execution of this transaction. I have reposed my confidence in you and hope that you will not disappoint me. Please respond immediately to my Private Fax No.: 234-1- 7597198. It is urgent you indicate your willingness in assisting us so that I will direct you on what next to do. You should include your direct telephone and fax numbers in your response. Endeavor to try persistently if you find it difficult getting across to me by fax due to our poor telecommunication system here in Nigeria. Please treat as extremely confidential. Thanks for your anticipated assistance. Yours sincerely, DR.
