REQUEST FOR AN URGENT CONFIDENTIAL BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP

After due deliberation with my colleagues, I have decided to forward to
you this business proposal. We want a reliable person who could assist
us to transfer the sum of Twenty Million Five Hundred Thousand United
States Dollars ($20,500,000) into his / her account. This fund resulted
from an over-invoiced bill from contracts awarded by us under the budget
allocation to my Ministry and this bill has been approved for payment by
the concerned authorities. The contract has since been executed,
commissioned and the contractor was paid the actual cost of the
contract. We are left with the balance US$20.5M as part of the
over-invoiced amount which we have deliberately over estimated for our
own use. But under our protocol division, civil servants are forbidden
to operate or own foreign accounts. This is why I am contacting you to
be our custodian for this fund.

As you may want to know and to make you less curious, I got your
address from a site in the internet that portrayed you (your
establishment) in good light. I am the Chief Accountant/Internal
Auditor of the Contract Award Committee (C.A.C.) of the Nigerian
National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC). This transaction is very much
free from all sorts of RISKS and TROUBLE from my Government. We the
N.N.P.C. Officials involved in this deal have put in many years in
service to this Ministry. We have been exercising patience for this
opportunity for so long and to us, this is a life time opportunity we
cannot afford to miss. You need not to worry about the responsibilities
of transferring this fund into your account, because all the
administrative step needed for the transfer of this fund into your
designated bank account will be done by me. We have agreed to COMPENSATE
you duly if agreement is reached by both of us.

My colleague and I will come to your country to arrange for our
share, upon the confirmation from you that the money has been
credited into your nominated bank account. Consequent upon your
acceptance of this proposal, kindly confirm your interest by sending me
a revert email at the new email accounts above and below [Email ID Removed]
Your indication by revert email to me of your
sincere and serious interest will enable me send you the PROCEDURE FOR
OPERATION.

NOTE: In the event of your inability to handle this transaction
please inform us so that we can look for another reliable person who can
assist in this respect.

It might surprise you why we choose you and trusted you for this
transaction. Yes, we believe that good friends can be discovered and
business like this can not be executed without trust. This is why we
have decided to trust you for this transaction. We are looking forward
to doing this transaction with you. Be further informed that everybody??s
interest and security had been considered before you were contacted, so
be rest assured and feel free to go into this transaction with us. But
let Honesty and Trust be our watchword throughout this transaction and
your prompt reply will be highly appreciated.

Thank you and God bless.

Best Regards,

DR. GREG ODILI.
