Dear Sir,
 
             Request For Assistance.
 
 I must solicit your strictest confidence in this
 transaction, this is by virtue of it's nature as
 being utterly confidential and top secret .What I
 am about to devulge to you in this letter is top
 secret and if it offends or does not meet with your
 business ethics, I crave your indulgence.
 
 I am the chairman of the Economic Recovery Committe
 (ERC) set up by the present civilian Government of
 Nigeria to review contracts awarded by the past
 military administration.
 
 In the course of our work at the ERC, we discovered
 this fund which resulted from gross re-valuation of
 contracts by top government officials of the last
 administration. The companies that executed the
 contracts have been duly paid and the contracts
 commissioned leaving the sum of US$22.5 Million
 floating in the escrow account of the Central Bank
 of
 Nigeria ready for payment.
 
 I have therefore been mandated as a matter of trust
 by
 my colleagues in the committee to look for an
 overseas
 partner to whom we could transfer the sum of
 US$22.5M
 legally subcontracting the entitlement to you/your
 company. This is bearing in mind that our civil
 service code of conduct forbids us from owning
 foreign company or running foreign account while in
 government service hence the need for an overseas
 partner.
 
 We have agreed that the funds will be shared thus
 after it has been paid into your account:
 (1) 25% of the money will go to you for acting as
 the
 beneficiary of the fund.
 (2) 5% has been set aside as an abstract projection
 for reimbursment to both parties for incidental
 expences that may be incurred in the course of the
 transaction.
 (3) 70% to us the government officials (with which
 we
 wish to comm! ence an importation business in
 conjunction with you ).
 
 All logistics are in place and all modalities worked
 out for the smooth conclusion of the transaction
 within ten to fourteen days of commencement after
 receipt of the following information: Your full
 name/ company name, address, company's details &
 activities, telephone & fax numbers.
 
 These information will enable us make the
 applications
 and lodge claims to the concerned ministries &
 agencies in favour of your company and it is
 pertinent
 to state here that this transaction is entirely
 based
 on trust as the solar bank draft or certified cheque
 drawable in any of the Central Bank of Nigeria
 correspondent bankers in America, Asia and Europe is
 going to be made in your name.
 
 I await your prompt and positive response to this
 business proposal.
 
 Kindest Regards,
 
 Dr.Rotimi Davis.
