I GOT YOUR INFORMATION FROM A SEARCH IN THE INTERNET
AND I DECIDED TO CONTACT YOU BELIEVING THAT YOU WILL
BE RESPONSIBLE AND HONEST TO ASSIST IN THIS TRANSFER .

WE BELIEVE THAT YOU WOULD BE IN A GOOD POSITION TO
HELP US IN OUR BID TO TRANSFER THE SUM OF FOURTY FIVE
MILLION,FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS (US$45.5M) INTO
A FOREIGN ACCOUNT.

WE ARE MEMBERS OF THE SPECIAL COMMITTE FOR BUDGET AND
PLANNING OF THE FEDERAL MINISTRY OF PETROLEUM AND
NATURAL RESOURCES,THIS COMMITTEE IS PRINCIPALLY
CONCERNED WITH CONTRACT APPRAISALS AND APPROVAL IN
ORDER OF PRIORITIES AS REGARDS CAPITAL PROJECT OF THE
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT OF NIGERIA. WITH OUR POSITIONS, WE
HAVE SUCCESSFULLY SECURED FOR OURSELVES THE SUM OF
FOURTY FIVE MILLION, FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND UNITED
STATES DOLLARS (US$45.5). THIS AMOUNT WAS ACCUMULATED
THROUGH UNDECLARED WINDFALL FROM SALES OF CRUDE
OILDURING THE GULF WAR.

WHAT WE NEED FROM YOU IS TO PROVIDE A SAFE ACCOUNT
INTO WHICH THE FUNDS WILL BE TRANSFERRED SINCE OUR
LAWS DO NOT ALLOW GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS TO OPERATE
FOREIGN ACCOUNT.

IT HAS BEEN AGREED THATTHE OWNER OF THE ACCOUNT WILL
BE COMPENSATED WITH 30% OF THE REMITTED FUNDS, WE
SHALL KEEP 60% WHILE 10% WILL BE SET ASIDE TO OFFSET
ANY EXPENSES INCLUDING TAXES THAT MAY BE INCURRED BY
BOTH PARTIES IN THE COURSE OF THE TRANSACTION.

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 FLOOR, NEWYORK. 10022 WITH TELEPHONE (212)
308-7788 AND TELEX NUMBER 6731689, AFTER THE AGREEMENT

BETWEEN BOTH PARTNERS IN WHICH HE WAS TO TAKE 5% THE
MONEY WAS DULY TRANSFERRED INTO HIS ACCOUNT ONLY FOR
US TO BE DISAPPOINTED ON OUR ARRIVAL IN NEW YORK AS WE
WERE RELIABLY INFORMED THAT MR. PATRICE MILLER WAS NO
LONGER ON THAT ADDRESS WHILE HIS TELEPHONE AND TELEX
NUMBERS HAVE BEEN REALLOCATED TO SOMEBODY
ELSE.

THIS WAS HOW WE LOST US$31.5M TO MR. PATRICE MILLER.
THIS TIME AROUND WE NEED A MORE RELIABLE AND
TRUSTWORTHY PERSON OR A REPUTABLE COMPANY TO DO
BUSINESS WITH, HENCE THIS LETTER TO YOU.

SO IF YOU CAN PROVE YOURSELF TO BE TRUSTWORTHY AND
INTERESTED IN THIS DEAL THEN WE ARE PREPARED TO DO
BUSINESS WITH YOU. WHAT WE WANT FROM YOU IS THE
ASSURANCE THAT YOU WILL LET US HAVE OUR SHARE WHEN
THIS FUND ISTRANSFERRED INTO YOUR ACCOUNT.

SO THAT WE CAN ADVICE YOU ON THE MODALITIES OF THIS
TRANSACTION,ALSO INDICATE YOUR MOBILE TELEPHONE /FAX
NUMBER FOR EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION.

PLEASE TREAT AS URGENT AND VERY CONFIDENTIAL.

GOD BE WITH YOU AS I LOOK FORWARD TO YOUR REPLY.
