Subject: CONTRACT PROPOSAL

Good Day, I am writing this letter in other to inform you of a
business that will benefit both of us immensely as long as you will
make up your mind to co-operate accordingly but before going into
details, I want you to take note that this business is not a child's
play or something to toy with rather it is a business that will give
us the oppurtunity to make lots of money. I have been unjustly treated
by my partner in a transaction so, I seek your help, attention and
genuine co-operation to our mutual benefit and I believe that you will
not let down the trust and confidence I am about to repose on you.I
have been working in an import and export firm that pays me about four
hundred dollars per month for the past ten years.I worked with this
company as the product sourcing manager. Between the 17th – 19th of
Sept., 2017 a seminar was held in Bouake, Cote d'Ivoire of which I
attended. While in the Seminar, I was opportuned to meet one Alhaji
who introduced himself to me as the president and CEO of his company.
Alhaji is an accomplished and widely known millionaire farmer in this
part of the region. He has cattle farms in MALI, SENEGAL,
GUINEA,BURKINA FASO,CHAD REP, and a new one located at ZIMBABWE. Above
all, he is one of the greatest supplier of cattle, beef and other
dairy products in this part of the West Coast. On knowing my
profession,he took me into confidence by informing me about the
purchase of a particular but very rare medicine for his cattle. He
informed me about the huge amount of money he spends on the purchase
of this very important cattle medicine. Precisely, he pays US$2,000
per carton of the medicine. He asked if my organization can source for
a cheaper supplier for him. Back in my office,I discussed this
proposal with my boss and he decided to handle the supply by himself.
We carried out a market research and discovered that we could purchase
this medicine cheaper somewhere in Europe for US$575.00 per carton. We
moved a proposal to the farmer to supply him this vaccine at
US$1,500.00 per carton of which he accepted.My company made a very big
financial breakthrough when we started supplying this vaccine to this
wealthy farmer.As these supplies progressed, and my boss made so much
money from the contract, I requested my boss for an increase in my
salary. My boss was so upset at my request that he sacked me without
benefits after ten years of dedicated workmanship. I was so desperate
that I went to Alhaji and informed him that I have a foreign contact
that will be willing to supply him this same product at US$1,250. per
carton.Alhaji in turn, confided in me that he is about to place order
for 2000 cartons of this same medicine following a suspected outbreak
of disease in his farms.I assured Alhaji that my foreign contact will
be in the position to manufacture and supply to him this vaccine at a
company rate of US$1,250 per carton. Infact, I convinced Alhaji that
my former boss usually buys the medicine from my foreign contact and
that is why he sales to him at a higher price. HOWEVER,I INFORMED
ALHAJI THAT HE WILL HAVE TO PAY CASH IN ADVANCE BEFORE MY FORIEGN
CONTACT WILL SUPPLY THIS VACCINE TO HIM. Right now, he has stopped all
communications with my boss. I therefore wish to present you as my
foreign contact so that you can handle the supplies to Alhaji.If you
can handle the contract,kindly contact me immediately for details and
negotiations on what is going to be my commission.We will get the
medicine from the producers at US$575 and supply to Alhaji at US$1250
per carton of 12 bottles(500ml). Kindly be notified that at no point
in time should you let this cattle farmer to know the contact of our
real source of this product in Europe so that they wouldn't bypass us
to deal directly with them. Thanks and God bless you. Eng. David
