STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL
FROM:OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY
ECOWAS CONTRACT AWARDING COMMITTEE
ECOWAS HEADQUARTERS LOME,
REPUBLIC OF TOGO.
Dear Sir,
(ACCOUNT PROVISION FOR US$22MILLION)
Forgive my indignation if this message comes to you as a surprise and if it
might offend you without your prior consent and writing through this
channel. I am Dr. Alex Amoru, The Secretary, Contract Awarding Committee of
the ECONOMIC COMMUNITY OF WEST AFRICAN STATES ( ECOWAS) with Headquarters in
Lome, Togo.
I got your information in a business directory from the Togolaise Chembers
of Commerce and Industry when I was searching for a reliable,honest and
trustworthy person to entrust this business with. I was simply inspired and
motivated to pick your contact from the many names and lists in the
directory. After discussing my view and your profile with my colleagues,they
were very much satisfied and decided to contact you immediately for this
mutual business relationship.
We wish to transfer the sum of US$22,000,000.00 (Twenty Two Million United
States Dollars only) into your personal or company`s bank account. This fund
was a residue of the over invoiced contract bills awarded by us for the
supply of ammunitions, hard/soft wares,phamaceauticals/medical items,light
and heavy duty vehicles, apperals and other administrative logistics etc for
the ECOMOG in Sierria-Leone and Liberia during the Peace Keeping Projects.
This DEAL was deliberately hatched out and carefully protected with all the
attendant lope holes sealed off.
As the secretary of CAC, I have the cooperation and mandate of the Financial
Director of the Organisation. We arranged and over invoiced the contract
funds supplied by different companies from different countries during the
crisis. It was our consensus to seek the assistance of a willing foreigner
to provide us with the facilities to transfer this money out of West Africa.
This is borne out of our beleif in the non-stable and sporous political
nature of this sub-region. The original contractors have been duely paid by
the Banque Centrale Des Etats De L`Afrique De L`Ouest (Central Bank of the
West African States) through our bankers-Societe Generale Banque.
This balance is suspended in the escrow accounts awaiting for claims by any
foreign company of our choice. We intend to pay out this fund NOW as the
organisation is winding up it's activities since the aim of returning PEACE
to the countries and the coast has been achieved. Based on the laws and
ethics of employment, we as civil servants working under this organisation,
are not allowed to operate a foreign account. This is the more reason why we
need your assistance to provide an account that can sustain this fund for
safe keeping and our future investment with your comprehensive advise,
assistance and partnership in your country.
It is however agreed, as the account owner in this deal to allow you 25% of
the entire sum as compensation, 70% will be held on trust for us while 5%
will be used to defray any incidental charges and cost during the course of
the transaction. This transaction will be successfully concluded within 14
banking days if you accord us your unalloyed and due cooperation.You should
provide the followings:
YOUR COMPANY`S NAME WITH COMPLETE ADDRESS,
TEL AND FAX NUMBERS.(if available) THE NAME OF YOUR BANK,IT'S ADDRESS WITH
TEL,FAX AND TELEX NUMBERS.
THE ACCOUNT NUMBER THE COMPLETE MAILING ADRRESS OF THE BENEFICIARY WITH
TELEPHONE AND FAX NUMBERS.
Upon the receipt of the above informations, the documents and with the texts
will be sent to you for confirmaton and then forwarded to the organisation
for ratification and subsequent payment. As with the case of all organised
(sensitive)and conspired DEALS, we solicit for your unreserved
confidentiality and utmost secret in this business.
We hope to retire peacefully and lead a honourable business life afterwards.
There are no risks involved.
PLEASE REPLY IMMEDIATELY OR CALL ME AT:+228-925-6480 SO THAT WE CAN PROCEED.
REPLY ASAP.
With regards.
Dr. Alex Amoru.
