    Just got another one;

    “PRIVETE AND URGENT

    ATTN:Remco

    Good Day,

    I have to contact you immediately for your assistance as our overseas partner to handle this great millinium transaction. I know you may consider this transaction as strange since we have not met ourselves personally before. I got your esteemed address from the internet during my search for a reliable individual/company who can jointly handle strictly confidential transaction with me which involves the transfer of a reasonable sum of money to a foreign bank account. Due to the nature of this business transaction, a neutral person like you is preferred.

    It is with trust confidence that I write to make this urgent and important business proposal to you.I am Senior Accountant with the Nigeria Liquefied Natural Gas here in Abuja Nigeria.
    The purpose of this letter is to seek for your urgent assistance in securing the worth of an already executed remunerated contract numberLNG/PED/1140a/LAGREF/99, executed to the LNG by foreign contractors and the contract sum was deliberately over invoiced (inflated contract values) to the tune of sum of USD$18.500.000 (Eighteen Million Five Hundred Thousand United States Of American Dollars) Only.

    The original contractor have been paid following the completion and commissioning of the various contract and they are unaware of the over invoicing. Presently this fund has been approved for payment but still floating in Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) suspense account awaiting activation.

    However since the initial contract were executed by foreign films, only a foreign film can also make claims or act as a beneficiary for the purpose of transferring this money out of Nigeria, I and my colleagues agreed together to contact you for urgent assistance, we are in control of all the procedures and we have the capability to manipulate any kind of difficulties we may come across during the transaction. Your assistance will be needed for two main reasons:-

    1. As senior government employees. We are not permitted by the Nigeria law to operate foreign accounts.
    2. You will assist us to arrange on investment potentials and prospects in your country in order to enable us reduce part of the fund back to our country.
    I and my colleagues also has agreed unanimously to compensate you with 20% of the total sum if you assist us to transfer this money in your nominated bank account 10% will be set aside to offset incidental expenses that might be incurred by either of us in the course of effecting this transfer. The remaining 70% shall be our due share.

    All necessary arrangement required for a conclusion of this transaction have been put in place with top officials of the Nigerian Federal Ministry of Finance and the Central Bank of Nigeria to enable us conclude the whole transaction within 21 working days. What is required from you is as follows:-
    A. Your bank details to be used where this funds should be remitted to and must be very reliable bank.
    B. The name of the company to be used as beneficiary.
    C. Your private phone and fax numbers for easy communication.

    The nature of your company s business is irrelevant to this transaction. It is also very important to inform you that this transaction and information shall be handled with absolute secrecy and confidential, because this deals involves some high ranking Nigeria government officials who would not ant to be involved/mentioned in any form of scandal, should this deal made open/exposed.

    We shall appreciate your acceptance to assist us to conclude this transaction in distant time. Endeavor to contact me through my email address for security reason ([email protected]) remember to send your private Tel/Fax Numbers so that we can officially communicate with you on these lines . indicating your interest. I will not contact any other person until I hear from you.

    The reason for choosing email is because of privacy.
