Attention:Managing Director/Ceo,

We  write to solicit your assistance in an urgent business transaction, which 
we are prosecuting under condition of strict confidentiality. We got your 
contact through the Nigeria. Chamber of Commerce and Industries (NCC), 
subsequently we ran a check on your firm through Merrill Lynch international 
and Salomon brothers catalog. Your creditability to handle a transaction of 
this magnitude, which requires confidentiality, was confirmed accordingly.

We are  top government officials and currently members of the Federal 
Government of Nigeria Senate Committee on Contact Review Panel (S.C.C.R.P). In 
order to commence this business, We solicit your assistance to enable us 
transfer into your account the sum of US$22.5M (Twenty- Two Million, Five 
Hundred Thousand U.S. Dollars) only. The source of these fund ! is as follows: 
During the last Military Regime here in Nigeria the official of that Government 
set-up companies and awarded themselves and their cohorts, contracts which were 
grossly over-invoiced in various ministries. As part of its inaugural policy, 
the present Civilian Government set up a Senate Committee Contract Review

Panel, a panel in which we are members. In the course of our investigation, we 
identified a lot of over-inflated contract funds, which are presently floating 
in the Apex Paying Bank ready for payment to any contractors with formal 
genuine claim. However, by virtue of our position as public servants and 
members of this panel, we cannot acquire these funds in our name. Therefore, we 
require the assistance of a sincere foreign partner hence this email letter.
 We are interested in the transfer of the said sum of US$22.5M. We have agreed 
amongst ourselves to share the total funds thus:-
 (1) 25% for our foreign partner (you). 
(2) 65% for us (the officials) !
 (3) 10% to be used in setting taxation and all incidental. 

Thus, we have worked out the modalities of the prosecution of this transaction, 
which meet all legal and administrative requirements in our country, and those 
of international arbitration. We hope to conclude this transaction within seven 
(7) banking days and commence the transfer of funds. To enable us commence the 
prosecution of this transaction, we require from you the following urgently by 
email 
(1) Re-confirm weather to use your company name or your name as the beneficiary.
 (2) Your company address
 (3) Your bank name and address
 (4) Your account number and account name
 (5) Your private telephone and fax numbers or any other relevant information 
you may deem helpful. 

With the above information, we shall use your company name or your name to 
re-award the contract, put up letters of claim and apply for payment. Note that 
your account in question may need not have money in it. The! most important 
thing is the ability of the account to receive the incoming funds. We are 
looking forward to doing business with you. 
Please acknowledge the receipt of this email weather in acceptance or not to 
enable us to know the next step of action.
Regards.
Senator Sanusi Bello
