NIGERIA NATIONAL PETROLEUM CORPORATION PETROLEUM AND PROJECT DIVISION. EMAIL:wilsonduke@gawab.com Attention: Managing Director, Sir, This letter is not intended to cause any embarrassment in whatever form, rather is compelled to contact your esteemed self, following the knowledge of your high repute and trustworthiness. Firstly, I must solicit your confidentiality, this by the virtue of its nature as being utterly confidential and top secret though I know that a transaction of this magnitude will make anyone apprehensive and worried, but I am assuring you that all will be well at the end of the day. I head a seven men tender board in- Charge of Contract Awards and Payment Approvals, I came to know about you when I was searching for a reliable and reputable person to handle a very confidential business transaction which involves the transfer of a huge sum of money to foreign account requiring maximum confidence. My colleagues and I are top officials of the NIGERIA NATIONAL PETROLEUM CORPORATION (NNPC). OUR DUTIES INCLUDE VETTING, EVALUATION AND FORESEEING THE MAINTENANCE OF THE REFINERIES IN ALL THE DESIGNATED OIL PIPELINES. We are therefore soliciting for your assistance to enable us transfer into your account the said funds. The source of the fund is as follows; during the last regime of the former Managing director of NNPC Dr. Gaius Obasike, this Committee awarded a contract of US$400million to a group of five foreign companies on behalf of the NIGERIA NATIONAL PETROLEUM CORPORATION for the construction of the oil pipelines in Kaduna, Port-Harcourt, Warri refineries, during this process my colleagues and I deliberately inflated the total contract sum to the tune of US$428million with the intention of sharingthe inflated sum of US$28million. The Government has since approved the sum of S$428million for us as the contract sum, but since the contract is only worth US$410million, the remaining US$18million is what we intend to transfer to a reliable and safe offshore account, we are prohibited to operate foreign account in our names since we are still in Government(Civil Service). Thus, making it impossible for us to acquire the money in our name right now, I have therefore been delegated as a matter of trust by my colleagues to look for an oversea partner whose account we can transfer the sum of US$18million. My colleagues and I have decided that if you/your company can be the beneficiary of this funds on our behalf, you or your company will retain 20% of the total sum US$18million while 75% will be for us the officials and remaining 5% will be used for offsetting all depts./expenses incurred during this transaction. We have decided that this transaction can only proceed under the following conditions: 1. That you treat this transaction with utmost secrecy and confidentiality and conviction of your transparent honesty. 2. That upon the receipt of the funds you will release the funds as instructed by us after you have remove your share of 20%. Please acknowledgethe receipt of this letter using the above email address or wilsonduke@gawab.com, including your private telephone/fax numbers to enable me give full details of this transaction. Your urgent response will be highly appreciated as we are catching on the next payment schedule for the financial quarter. Please be assured that this transaction is 100% risk free and only trust can make the reality of this transaction. Best Regards, Dr. Wilson Duke
