Yippee !!! I’m Rich

I used to think that Tom Champagne was my bestest buddy what with all the special winning offers he sent me.

However, poor old Tom has been pushed into second place. My new bestest pal is the Rev. John Obi.

Dear: Valued Beneficiary, Re: visitation of contract fund on meeting held with senate committee, contract review panel in the presidency on 26/7/ 2010, also rock villa, Abuja.

With respect to the Federal Government gazette on payment of old, debts especially approved by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) and has been due for payment but delayed. The senate committee confirms their meeting with the presidency as above thus: all due contract values approved directed to this office for immediate payment through diplomatic system.

We therefore inform you that this office has been given approval to pay you part payment (US$10) ten million united states dollars out of your total contract sum, any payment subject to impress account 1 is cancelled.

We hereby confirm to you that based on the meeting/directive above with the presidency, approval has been given to all due value to be paid by cash personally to the beneficiaries or send by special courier services.

However, it is owing to series of irregularities and manipulations noted in the payment of foreign debts in recent time, that our department has decided to pay all her creditors in the most secured and special manner in order to avoid any undue manipulation and distortion.

Also our apex bank has accumulated huge debts during the military era. These owed to the federal government of Nigeria (FGN) affiliated offices or their offshore correspondence overseas was incurred in the course of payments by transfer to foreign creditors. Following this development, this office was warned of the telegraphic transfer or payment by draft especially receiving the transfer procedure that infers to collection of transfer fees, handling fees, etc, from beneficiaries fund before making such payments.

Therefore, we have to pay all due claims through a special courier service (sea and air diplomatic courier service). Your contract sum deposit entitlement is to be packed cash in diplomatic box and send to you as diplomatic luggage. The cost of dispatching this luggage will be subtracted from your contract fund. In fact, the federal government of Nigeria has mapped out zero point four percent (0.4%) from your total contract fund to offset the airfreight bill before the money is sealed in the iron box.

You are required to send the first two pages of your international passport and a confirm address again where the box containing the whole funds will be mailed to you, do also send your private telephone for necessary communications with the courier company on their transit such that there will be no mistake.

Your immediate compliance in sending the needed address and numbers is quite imperative to enable this office complete her prompt obligation.
