Dear Sir,

         Confidential Business Proposal

I am Dr. Godwin Ekene, the Chief Accountant of the Nigerian national petroleum corporation [NNPC], an affiliate of the department of petroleum resources. In the course of government desire to meet the gas flaring deadline and the commencement of the development of its gas and condensate reserves to raise declining production, huge sum of money running into millions of United States Dollars was budgeted by the then military Government for the building of a liquefied natural gas plant [LNG] at Bonny in Rivers state, Nigeria.

However, in my capacity as the Chief Accountant, of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation [NNPC], I and some of my colleagues in executive positions were able to influence the award of a contract for the construction of a national gas transmission grid network in my country. The contractor who handled this project agreed to give my colleagues And I 10% of the total contract sum, if we were able to influence the award of the contract to their favour. So many foreign firms bided for this same contract, but because we knew whom we wanted the contract to be awarded to, we made sure that the contractor we had this understanding with won the contract. They have been paid 90% of their total contract sum remaining the balance of 10% which we never wanted them to collect on our behalf because of the fear that they might not give us the balance of 10%. It is pertinent to note that, the remaining balance of a total sum of twelve million eight hundred thousand united states dollars (US$12,800,000.00) is lying in the suspense account of the Nigerian Deposit Bank (NDB), ready for transfer into an overseas account.

I have been unanimously mandated to seek for an honest and trustworthy foreign partner who will assist in ensuring the successful transfer of the above sum of money into his Personal/Company account since the Nigerian Code of Conduct Bureau does not permit us to operate a foreign account as public officers. On the successful remittance of the fund (US$12,800,000.00) into your nominated bank account, for your kind assistance you will be adequately compensated.

Be rest assured that, the modalities and logistics towards the successful transfer of this fund has been worked out. All we require from you is your co-operation. This transaction is 100% risk free. We kindly request you accord it the highest level of secrecy it deserves. Your swift response will be highly appreciated. Kindly provide your phone and fax numbers for more informative discussions. Upon your acknowledgement of this proposal, I will forward to you the detailed procedure for the transaction.

Note that, this transaction is legal and free from all sorts of risk and trouble. It does not contravene the laws of my country nor any International laws; hence the whole approval for the transfer will be official and legally processed. This transaction will be concluded within five (5) working days if we follow it up and give it the serious attention it deserves.

Awaiting your prompt response.

Best regards,

Dr. Godwin Ekene.
