NIGERIAN NATIONAL PETROLEUM CORPORATION (NNPC)
FALOMO OFFICE COMPLEX, IKOYI, LAGOS.
ATTN: PRESIDENT/CEO
DEAR SIR,
I AM CHIEF DR. PHIL BERNARD, THE FOREIGN LIASON OFFICER OF THE (NNPC), AND I AM ALSO A MEMBER OF THE ''TENDER-COMMITTEE'', APPROVED BY THE FORMER FEDERAL MILITARY GOVERNMENT OF NIGERIA FOR CONTRACT AWARDING/PAYMENT APPROVAL IN THE NIGERIAN NATIONAL PETROLEUM CORPORATION (NNPC) OUR DUTIES INCLUDE EVALUATION, VETTING, APPROVAL FOR PAYMENT OF CONTRACT JOBS DONE FOR THE NNPC, ETC.
ON THE 10TH OF MARCH, 2001 THIS COMMITTEE AWARDED A CONTRACT OF US$600 MILLION UNITED STATES DOLLARS TO THE CONSORTIUM OF ABB LUMMUS, JGC CORPORATION OF JAPAN. BOUYGUES OFF-SHORE AND JOINT VENTURE OF SPIEBATIGNOLES AND FOUGEROLLE, FOR AN ENGINEERING, PROCUREMENT AND CONSTRUCTION IN NIGERIA.
BUT MY COLLEAGUES AND I DECIDED TO OVER-INFLATE THE CONTRACT SUM TO THE TUNE OF US$665 MILLION DOLLARS WITH THE INTENTION OF SHARING THE REMAINING US$65 MILLION DOLLARS AMONG OURSELVES.
THE FORMER FEDERAL MILITARY GOVERNMENT OF NIGERIA HAS SINCE APPROVED THE AMOUNT OF US$665M DOLLARS FOR US AS THE CONTRACT SUM, AND THE SUM OF US$348.5MILLION DOLLARS HAS ALSO BEEN APPROVED TO BE GIVEN TO THE FOREIGN COMPANIES CONCERNED AS THE MOBILIZATION FEE FOR THE CONTRACT. BUT SINCE EACH OF THE COMPANIES IS ENTITLED TO US$60M DOLLARS, WE INTEND TO TRANSFER THE REMAINING US$48.5M DOLLARS ABROAD INTO ANY SAFE AND RELIABLE ACCOUNT TO BE DISBURSED AMONG OURSELVES.
MY COLLEAGUES AND I HAVE AGREED THAT IF YOUR COMPAMY CAN ACT AS THE BENEFICIARY OF THIS FUND (US$48 .5M DOLLARS) YOU OR YOUR COMPANY WILL RETAIN 30% OF THE TOTAL AMOUNT THAT WILL BE TRANSFERRED WHILE 60% WILL BE FOR US. AND THE REMAINING 10% WILL BE USED TO OFF-SET ANY BILL OR EXPENSES INCURRED BY BOTH SIDES DURING THE COURSE OF THE TRANSFER.
IT MAY INTEREST YOU TO KNOW THAT, TWO YEARS AGO A SIMILAR TRANSACTION WAS CARRIED OUT WITH ONE MR. PATRICE MILLER, THE PRESIDENT OF CRAINE INTERNATIONAL TRADING CORPORATION AT NUMBER 135 EAST 57TH STREET, 28TH REALLOCATED FLOOR, NEW YORK 10022 WITH TELEPHONE NUMBER +(212)-308-7788 AND TELEX NUMBER 673-1689, AFTER THE AGREEMENT BETWEEN BOTH PARTNERS IN WHICH HE WAS TO TAKE 20% OF THE MONEY WHILE THE REMAINING 80% FOR US. WITH ALL THE REQUIRED DOCUMENTS SIGNED, THE MONEY WAS DULY TRANSFERRED INTO HIS ACCOUNT ONLY TO BE DISAPPOINTED ON OUR ARRIVAL IN NEW YORK AND WE WERE RELIABLY INFORMED THAT MR. PATRICE MILLER WAS NO LONGER ON THAT ADDRESS WHILE HIS TELEPHONE AND TELEX NUMBER HAVE BEEN REALLOCATED TO SOMEBODY ELSE. THAT WAS HOW WE LOST US$27.5M DOLLARS TO MR. MILLER.
THIS TIME AROUND, WE NEED A MORE RELIABLE AND TRUSTWORTHY PERSON AND A REPUTABLE COMPANY? ACCOUNT TO TRANSFER THIS MONEY INTO. HENCE THIS LETTER TO YOU. PLEASE BE INFORMED THAT THE PERSONALITIES INVOLVED IN THIS TRANSACTION ARE TOP AND INFLUENTIAL GOVERNMENT FUNCTIONARIES WHO WOULD NOT LIKE ANY FORM OF EXPOSURE AND AS SUCH WOULD WANT YOU TO KEEP THIS BUSINESS TOP SECRET AND CONFIDENTIAL. AND BE REST ASSURED THAT THIS TRANSACTION IS 100% RISK FREE. THERE IS NO RISK INVOLVED ON BOTH SIDES. SIR, IF THIS PROPOSAL SATISFIES YOU, THEN CONTACT US IMMEDIATELY BY INDICATING YOUR INTEREST AND SENDING TO US COMPLETE AND NECESSARY APPLICATIONS IN ORDER TO EFFECT THE TRANSFER SOONEST.
YOUR RESPONSE SHOULD BE DIRECTED TO ME VIA THESE E-MAIL: vincentanwana@netscape.net
PLEASE YOUR REPLY IS URGENTLY NEEDED.
THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS.
YOURS SINCERELY
CHIEF. DR. PHIL BERNARD
