ATTN:DEAR SIR/MADAM, 

REQUEST FOR URGENT BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP - STRICTLY
CONFIDENTIAL. 

Firstly, I must solicit your strictest confidentiality in this
transaction. This is by 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. We have decided to contact you first by your 
email due to the urgency of this transaction, as we have been reliably 
informed that it will take at least two to three weeks for a normal post to 
reach you. So we decided it is best using the email bearing
in mind that it is not the very best for a transaction of this magnitude. 

Let me start by first introducing myself properly to you. I am MR EDOZIE 
PETERS a senior official in the Nigerian National Petroluem Corporation and 
I head a Three-man tender board in charge of Contracts Awards and payment 
Approvals. I came to know of you in my search for a reliable and reputable 
person to handle a very confidential business transaction which involves
the transfer of a huge sum of money to a foreign account requiring maximum 
confidence. I and my colleagues are top officials of the Federal Government 
Contract Review Panel. Our duties include evaluation,vetting,approval for 
payment of contract jobs done for the NNPC, etc. In order to commence this 
business, we solicit for your assistance to enable us transfer into your 
account the said funds. 

The source of this funds is as follows: During the last military regime here 
in Nigeria, this committee awarded a contract of S$400,000,000.00 (Four 
Hundred Million United States Dollars) to five construction firms on behalf 
of the Petroleum Ministry for the supply, construction and installation of 
Oil Pipeline from Warri to PortHarcourt. During this process my colleagues 
and I decided amongst ourselves to deliberately over-inflate the total 
contract sum to US$431,500,000.00 (Four Hundred and Thirty One Million Five 
Hundred Thousand United States Dollars) with the
main intention of sharing the remaining sum of US$31,500,000.00 (Thirty One 
Million Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars) amongst ourselves. The 
Federal Government of Nigeria has since approved the sum of 
US$431,500,000.00 (Four Hundred and Thirty One Million, Five Hundred 
Thousand United States Dollars) for us as the contract sum, and the sum of 
US$400,000,000.00 (Four Hundred Million United States Dollars) has also been 
paid to the foreign contractors concerned as contract entitlements for the 
contract done, but since each of the companies is entitled
toUS$80,000,000.00 only, we are now left with U$31,500,000.00 balance in the 
account which we intend to transfer abroad into a safe and reliable account 
to be disbursed amongst ourselves, but by virtue of our positions as civil 
servants and members of this panel, we cannot do this by ourselves, as we 
are prohibited by the `Code of Conduct Bureau´ (Civil Service Laws) from 
opening/operating foreign accounts in our names, making
it impossible for us to acquire the money in our names. I have, therefore, 
been mandated as a matter of trust by my colleagues in the panel to look for 
an overseas partner into whose account we would transfer the sum of 
US$31,500,000.00 (Thirty One Million Five Hundred Thousand United States 
Dollars), hence we are writing you this letter. 

My colleagues and I have agreed that if your company can act as the 
beneficiary of this funds on our behalf, you or your company will retain 30% 
of the total amount of US$35,500,000.00 (Thirty Five Million Five Hundred 
Thousand United States Dollars), while 60% will be for us (members of this 
panel) and the remaining 10% will be used in offsetting all debts/expenses 
incurred (both local and foreign) in the cause of this transfer. Needless to 
say, the trust reposed on you at this juncture is enormous. In return we 
demand your complete honesty and trust. You must 
however, NOTE that this transaction will be strictly based on the
following terms and conditions as we have stated below, as we have heard 
confirmed cases of business associates running away with funds kept in their 
custody when it finally arrive their accounts. 

A very good and recent example is the one of Mr.kenneth Hopwood, the 
President of Mileage Trading and Investment Company at Number 121, West 55th 
Street, 21st Floor, New York 10022, and former Chairman of OMPADEC (Mr. 
Patrick Opia), who we were reliably informed that after the agreement 
between both partners in which he was to take 15% of the money, while the 
remaining 85% for Nigerian Officials. With all the required documents
signed, the money was duly transferred into his account, only to be 
disappointed on their arrival in New York and were informed that Mr.kenneth 
Hopwood was no longer on that address, while his telephone and fax numbers 
have been re-allocated to somebody else. This was how they lost US$18.5 
Million to Mr. Hopwood. This is a very recent story here in my country and 
everybody is aware of this, some of the officials decided to cry out and
face the law, because they felt they had lost too much to a stranger,while 
the Chairman of OMPADEC (Mr. Patrick Opia) is hiding in a foreign country. 
So right now we are taking all precautionary measures to guard against 
re-occurrence of such act in our case. This is why we have decided that this 
transaction will be based completely on the following:
(a). Our conviction of your transparent honesty and diligence.
(b). That you would treat this transaction with utmost secrecy and 
confidentiality.
(c). That upon receipt of the funds, you will promptly release our share
(60%) on demand after youhave removed your 30% and all expenses have 
beensettled.
(d). You must be ready to produce us with enough information about yourself 
to put our minds at rest. 

Please, note that this transaction is 100% legal and risk free and we hope 
to conclude the business in Seven Bank working days from the date of receipt 
of the necessary information and requirement from you. Acknowledge the 
receipt of this letter using this email address <papaedo@hknetmail.com > i 
will bring you into the complete picture of the transaction when I have 
heard from you. 

Your urgent response will be highly appreciated as we are already behind 
schedule for this financial quarter. Thank you and God bless.
Yours faithfully
MR EDOZIE PETERS
