Subject: RE:INVESTMENT PARTNERSHIP
I Am Albert Atkins, an Accountant with the Nigerian National Petroleum
Corporation (NNPC). I Also headed A Seven-Man Tenders Board in charge
of Contract Awards and Payment Approvals. I am contacting you in my
quest for a reliable and reputable person to handle a very
confidential transaction which involves the transfer of a huge Sum of
money to a Foreign Account.
Firstly, I want to crave your indulgence to handle this proposal with
utmost secrecy and give it the urgency it deserves
Sometimes in 2018, there were series of Contracts Executed by a
Consortium of Multi-Nationals in the Oil Industry in favor of my
Corporation, NNPC. The Original Value of this Contracts was
deliberately over-invoiced for our personal use. Please, note that the
Companies that Actually Executed these Contracts have been fully paid
and the Projects Officially Commissioned.
I am seeking your assistance and Willingness To Transfer the over
invoiced Amount To Your Account For Subsequent Disbursement, Since We,
Civil Servants Are Prohibited By law From Operating And/or-opening
Foreign Accounts In Our Names. Needless To Say, The Trust Reposed On
You At This Juncture Is Enormous.
It is the Over Invoiced which is currently in the suspense account of
my Corporation (NNPC) that I have agreed to transfer into a foreign
account for Investment purpose.
At the successful transfer of the funds, it will be shared on an
agreed percentage between me and you. What Is more important to us is
to get the funds transferred out of this country into a foreign
account after we can meet to plan the investment.
Please, indicate your willingness by contacting me through my private
email address ([email protected] ) for more details / plans.
Thanks,
ALBERT ATKINS
