CONTRACT REVIEW PANEL,

FEDERAL MINISTRY OF WORKS AND HOUSING

FEDERAL SECRETARIAT OFFICE COMPLEX

F.C.T ABUJA.

TEL. +2348059894396

FUND TRANSFER/INVESTMENT

Dear Sir,

First, I must solicit your strictest confidence in

this transaction,this is by virtue of it's nature as

being utterly confidential and top secret.

Study this portion carefully and advice categorically,

if you will be able to handle, as I might not want to

be exposed of the information considering the source

and reputation of my name.

I am the Director of project and the newly appointed

chairman, contract reviewing committee(CRC) of the

Federal ministry of Works and Housing(FMW&H)in

Abuja,Nigeria. I am seeking your assistance to enable

me transfer the sum of US $27,000,000.00 into your

account for mutual benefits.This money came about as a

result of a contract executed on behalf of my

Ministry,the (FederalMinistry of Works and Housing).

This contract was officially assigned to be

awarded and executed by two foreign contractors at

the tune of US$90,500,000.00,but in the course of our

negotiation, we bargained with only one foreign

contractor, a Bulgarian firm which now executed

the contract at the cost of US$63,500,000.00. Thus

leaving the remaining US$27M to our (members of the

CRP ) benefits unknown to the contractor and any other

person in my Ministry. This contract has been

satisfactorily executed and inspected as

the Bulgarian firm is presently securing his payment

from my Ministry.

It is however to this effect that I seek your

maximum assistance and approval to present your

company name alongside with the Bulgarian

contractor as the second foreign con tractor to

enable me transfer the difference(US$27M)into your

account for further investment depending on your

advice.On actualization of the transaction, the funds

will be shared thus:

1. 25% of the money go to you for acting as the

beneficiary of the funds.

2. 10% for reimbursement to both parties for

incidental expenses that may be incurred in the course

of the transaction for insurance, phone

bills,documentation etc.

3. 65% for me and my partners,which we intend to

commence an importation business with you.

All logistics are in place and all modalities worked

out for the smooth conclusion of the transaction within

ten to fourteen days of commencement after receipt of

the following information;

1.Your name and address,

2.Company's name and address if any,

3.Your telephone and fax numbers.

When we receive the above information from you by

e-mail, we shall apply and obtain the necessary

payment approvals from the relevant

authorities including the Federal Ministry of

Finance (F.M.F)which shall allocate you or your

company foreign exchange cover on the US$27 million, then you

or your company shall be officially regarded as the

beneficiary of the funds.

When the

money is transferred to your account, upon

confirmation from you that the fund has been credited

into your Nominated Bank Account,my colleagues (2)

and I will come over to your country for the sharing

of the fund to commence our Importation Business.

Lets trust that absolute confidentiality be our

watchword throughout this business transaction. Your

line of business does not matter.

However, your prompt reply will enable us to

expedite action by forwarding the information (your

bank particulars) to the authority concerned for

immediate processing of the document/remittance.

If you are able to handle this, do reply back.

Thanks and best regards.

ELDER EMEKA UCHE.

Hard to believe, but apparently true, some people actually get sucked in by this. :o

D

Only a scam if you fall for it, otherwise, it's junk mail

The part I like is how they believe by disclosing that they are a corrupt official it somehow gives them more credibility. :o
