THE ABOVE SUM RESULTED FROM AN OVER-INVOICED CONTRACT, EXECUTED COMMISSIONED AND PAID FOR ABOUT FIVE YEARS (5 YRS) AGO BY A FOREIGN CONTRACTOR. THIS ACTION WAS HOWEVER INTENTIONAL, AND SINCE THEN THE FUND HAS BEEN IN A SUSPENSE ACCOUNT AT THE CENTRAL BANK OF NIGERIA - OUR APEX BANK. WE ARE NOW READY TO TRANSFER THE FUND OVERSEAS, AND THAT IS WHY WE REQUIRE YOUR ASSISTANCE. THE TOTAL SUM WILL BE SHARED AS FOLLOWS:- 80% FOR US, 15% FOR YOU AND 5% FOR LOCAL AND INTERNATIONAL EXPENSES INCIDENTAL TO THE TRANSFER.
THE TRANSACTION IS RISK FREE ON BOTH SIDES. I AM AN ACCOUNTANT WITH THE NIGERIAN NATIONAL PETROLEUM CORPORATION (N.N.P.C). IF YOU FIND THIS PROPOSAL ACCEPTABLE, WE SHALL REQUIRE THE FOLLOWING DOCUMENTS:
(A) YOUR BANKER'S NAME, TELEPHONE, ACCOUNT, AND FAX NUMBERS.
(B) YOUR PRIVATE TELEPHONE AND FAX NUMBERS - FOR CONFIDENTIALITY AND EASY COMMUNICATION.
(C) YOUR LETTER HEADED PAPER AND PRO-FORMA INVOICE STAMPED AND SIGNED.
ALTERNATIVELY, WE WILL FURNISH YOU WITH THE TEXT OF WHAT TO TYPE INTO YOUR LETTER HEADED PAPER AND PROFORMA - INVOICE, ALONG WITH A BREAK DOWN. EXPLAINING COMPREHENSIVELY WHAT WE REQUIRE OF YOU. THE BUSINESS WILL TAKE US 30 WORKING DAYS TO ACCOMPLISH. FOR SECURITY REASON, DO NOT HOOK UP TO AT&T (AMERICAN TELEPHONE & TELEGRAPH) NUMBER UNTIL YOU GET THROUGH.
PLEASE REPLY URGENTLY.
