[DR FRED SMITH]

FROM THE DESK OF DR FRED SMITH

Dear Sir, 

This is important, and requires your immediate attention! First, I must 
solicit your strictest confidence in the transaction. 

To intimate you further, we are top officials of the new civilian 
administration Committee on Foreign and Local Contract Payment, who are 
interested in the importation of goods into our country with funds 
which are presently trapped in Nigeria. In order to actualize this 
dream, we seek your assistance to transfer the said-trapped fund into an 
interest bearing account which you have absolute control over 
in your country or a third country other than Nigeria. 

The new civilian administration of General Olusegun Obasanjo (rtd) 
set-up this committee specifically to review all contracts/oil licenses to 
determine their propriety and relevance in the light of the 
country's current economic and political realities. We have identified 
a lot of inflated contract fund which are currently floating in our Apex Bank. 
At this moment we have worked out modalities within ourselves and some 
acquaintances at the Apex Bank to divert the sum of 
US$33,700,000.00 (Thirty three million, seven hundred thousand United States 
Dollars) only, for our personal use. 

However, by virtue of our positions as Civil Servants and members of 
the Contract Review Panel, we cannot acquire this money in our names, 
consequently, I was delegated by my colleagues as a matter of trust to look for 
an overseas partner into whose account we can transfer this sum of money, hence 
this letter to you. 

Furthermore, my colleagues and I are willing to transfer the total sum 
of US$33,700,000.00 (Thirty three million, seven hundred thousand United States 
Dollars) into your account for disbursement. Your 
areas of specialization is not a hindrance to the successful execution 
of this transaction and the account required for this project can either be 
PERSONAL, COMPANY or an OFFSHORE account you have total control over. Needless 
to say, the trust reposed on you at this 
juncture is enormous. In return, we have agreed to offer you 20% of this sum 
while 10% shall be set aside for incidental expenses between the parties in the 
course of this transaction. You must however note that this transaction is 
subject to the following terms and conditions: 

(a) Our conviction of your transparent honesty and diligence (b) That 
you would treat this transaction with utmost secrecy and confidentiality. 
(c) That the funds would be transferred to an account where you have 
absolute control over. 
(d) That one of our representatives will be with you in your country to 
represent our interest. 
This however depends on your response to conditions A and C above. 

Modalities have been worked out to the highest level for the immediate 
transfer of the funds within 14 working days subject to your satisfaction of 
the above stated terms. Our assurance is that your role 
is RISK FREE. To accord this transaction the legality it deserves and 
for mutual security of the funds, the whole approval procedures will be 
officially and legally processed with your name or the name of any company you 
may nominates as the bonafide beneficiary. 

Once more, I want you to understand that having put over 23 years in 
the civil service of my country, I am averse to having my image and career 
dented. 

This matter should be treated with utmost secrecy and urgency. 

Kindly expedite action as we are behind schedule to enable us include 
this transfer in this batch as 
payments to foreign contractors is usually carried out on quarterly 
basis.
