    Attention: president/CEO.

    Dear Sir,

    REQUEST FOR URGENT BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP.

    Firstly I must solicit your strictest confidence in this subject. This
    is by virtue of its nature as
    being utterly confidential and top secret. A member of the Nigeria
    Export Promotion Council
    (N.E.P.C.) who was part of the federal government delegation to your
    country during a trade
    exhibition gave your particulars to me. I have decided to seek a
    confidential operation with
    you in the execution of the deal described hereunder for the benefit of
    all the parties and
    hope that you keep it top secret because of the nature of the business.

    Within the ministry of petroleum resources where I work as a director
    of engineering and
    projects, and with the co-operation of four other very top officials,
    we have under our
    control as overdue contract payments, bills totaling Thirty One Million
    United States Dollars,
    which we want to transfer to a foreign account, with the assistance and
    co-operation of a
    foreign company to receive the said funds on our behalf or a reliable
    foreign individual
    account to receive the funds.

    The source of the fund is as follows: during the last military
    government here in Nigeria
    which lasted bout eleven months, government officials set up companies
    and awarded
    themselves various contracts which were grossly over-invoiced in
    various ministries. The
    present civilian government is not aware of the atrocities committed by
    their predecessors
    and as a result, we have a lot of such over invoiced contract payment s
    pending which we
    have identified floating at the central bank of Nigeria ready for
    payment. However by virtue
    of our position as civil servants, we cannot acquire this money in our
    names. I was
    therefore delegated as a matter of urgency by my colleagues to look for
    an over seas
    partner into whose account we would transfer the sum of
    US$31,000,000.00 (THIRTY
    ONE MILLION UNITED STATES DOLLARS) hence we are writing you this
    letter.

    Since the present civilian government is determined to pay foreign
    contractors l debts owed
    so as to maintain an amiable relationship with foreign governments and
    non-government
    financial agencies. We have decided to include our bills for approval
    with the co-operation
    of some officials of the federal ministry of finance (F.M.F) and the
    central bank of Nigeria
    (C.B.N). We are seeking your assistance in providing us with a good
    company account or
    any other offshore bank account into which we can remit this money by
    acting our main
    partner and trustee or acting as the original contractor. This we can
    do by swapping of
    account information and changing of beneficiary and other pertinent
    information to apply for
    payment. By this act, we would be using your company information to
    apply for payment,
    and prepare letters of claim and job description on behalf of your
    company. This process
    would be an internal arrangement with the departments concerned.

    I have the authority of my partners involved to propose that should you
    be willing to assist
    us in this transaction, your share as compensation will be us$6.2
    million (20%), us$21.7
    million (70%) for us and us$3.1 (10%) for
    taxation and miscellaneous expenses.

    The business itself is 100% safe, provided you treat it with utmost
    secrecy and
    confidentiality. Also your area of specialization is not m hindrance
    to the successful
    execution of this transaction. I have reposed my confidence in you and
    hope that you will
    not disappoint me.

    You may Fax your response to my home fax: 234 1 7590846 to indicate
    your
    willingness in assisting us. I will bring the complete picture of the
    transaction to your
    knowledge when I have heard from you.

    Thanks for your co-operation,

    Yours faithfully,

    Dr Charles Kunama
