Dear Friend,

I am the Treasury Controller, Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation [NNPC] and a close associate of the immediate past Minister of Petroleum Resources. The Minister has mandated me to transfer the sum of US$88 millions recovered from over-invoiced contracts involving the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation [NNPC] into several private accounts in Europe and United States. A total sum of US$53,700,000.00 has been transferred before the emergence of this present administration leaving the balance of US$34,300,000.00.

I have made proper arrangement / documentation to transfer the balance which is retained in a coded account of the NNPC with the Central Bank of Nigeria. We are soliciting that you help us to receive the fund in trust. We cannot complete this transaction smoothly without the participation of a foreign partner who would provide an account where the funds could be lodged. Since it is a contract payment, the funds must be remitted to a foreign account. The remittance of the funds requires few documentation.

There is no risk involved on your part in this transaction since the former Minister and I have covered this transaction with adequate contract documents and external credit documents from the beginning. What we require from you by e-mail are viz:

{i} Acceptance letter of this offer
{ii} Your company's name and confidential telephone and fax numbers
{iii} Convincing Honesty, Trustworthiness and Willingness to abide by the
requirements of this proposal paramount of which is CONFIDENTIALITY.

We have agreed that you will retain 30% of the entire US$34,300,000.00 for your effort in this transaction, 60% for us partners here in Nigeria and the remaining 10% will be used for defrayal of incidental cost in the course of this transfer. Please reply urgently by e-mail as we expect that the transaction will not take more than ten working days.

Please, note that this transaction must be with utmost privacy.
Thanks for the understanding and anticipated co-operations.

Best regards.

Alhaji Gladima Dangote
Treasury Controller,
Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC).
