LAGOS, NIGERIA.
Dear Sir,
REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL BUSINESS PROPOSAL.
First, I must solicit your strict
confidence in this transaction. Through some discreet inquiries from
my local chambers of Commerce, you and your organization were
revealed as being quite astute in private enterpreneurship. One has
no doubt in your ability to handle a financial business of
considerable amount, which will form the bedrock of an extensive
business partnership in due course. In unfolding this proposal, I
want to count on you, as a respected executive of your company to
handle this transaction with all maturity and confidentiality it
deserves.
I am a member of the Federal Government Contract Award and
Monitoring Committee in the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation
(NNPC). Sometime ago, a contract was awarded to a foreign firm by my
committee in NNPC. This contract was over invoiced to the tune of
US$21,500,000.00 (Twenty One Million, Five Hundred Thousand USD).
This was done deliberately. The over-invoicing was a deal by my
committee to benefit
from the project. Specifically, the contract was for the;
Construction of Heavy Duty Drilling Pipelines Network and
Calibration for Crude Oil and Down Stream
Products Distribution and Subsequent Evacuation for the Kaduna, Port
Harcourt and Warri Refineries and Petro-Chemical Companies which are
subsidiaries of the
Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation.
We now desire to transfer this money which is in the NNPC Suspense
Account with the Central Bank of Nigeria to any overseas Account
which we expect you to provide
for us.
Needless to say, the trust reposed in you at this junction is
enormous, we have agreed amongst ourselves to offer you 30% of the
transferred sum while 10%
shall be set aside for incidental expenses during the course of the
transaction. It is our intention therefore, having your
understanding and cooperation
to invest our 60% share of this fund in importation of agricultural
and oil prospecting equipment to sub-Sahara Africa, as it will be
virtually impossible
to retrieve our share in cash.
I would require from you by return fax and phone confirmation as a
matter of urgency the following:
1) Beneficiary/ Account Name and or Company Name, Address,
office and home phone and fax #.
2) Name, Address, Phone and Fax # of your Bank.
3) Account # of Beneficiary, Routing, Swift or Telex # of your
Bank.
The above information would be used to make formal applications as a
matter of procedure for the release of the money for onward transfer
to your account.
It does not matter whether or not your company does contract
projects of the nature described here. The assumption is that your
company won the major contract
and subcontracted it out to other companies. More often than not,
big trading companies and firms of unrelated fields win major
contracts and subcontract
to more specialized firms for execution.
We have strong and reliable connections and contacts at the Apex
Bank (Central Bank of Nigeria) and the Federal Ministry of Finance
and we have no doubt that
all this money will be released and transferred if we get the
necessary foreign partner to assist us in this deal. Therefore, when
the business is successfully
concluded we shall, through our same connections withdraw all
documents used from all the concerned Government Ministries for 100%
security.
We are civil servants and we will not want to miss this opportunity
.We want this money to be transferred to the overseas Account for
us.
Please contact me immediately through my Tel # 234 1 288 0641, 234 1
774 4449 or my FAX #: 234 1 288 0643, 234 1 759 5743 whether
or not you are interested in
this deal. If you are not, it will enable me scout for another
foreign partner to carry out this deal.
Again we look forward to doing business with you and solicit your
utmost confidentiality in this transaction.
Yours truly,
Dr. Abrahim Gambari.
