 Dear Sir/Madam,

I hope you would know the essence of my contact with you. I sincerely
promise that the deal is 100% risk-free to both sides; hence our top
powers to execute it.

My names are Engr.Harrison Bello.Director Department of Petroleum
Resources (DPR). My term of reference involves the award of contracts
to
multinational companies. My office is saddled with the responsibility
of
contract Award, screening, categorization and privatization of
projects
embarked upon by Department of Petroleum Resources (DPR) as well as
feasibility studies for selected projects and supervising the project
consultants involved.

A breakdown of the fiscal expenditure by this office as at the end of
last
fiscal quarter of 2017 indicates that (DPR) paid out a whooping sum of
US$2B (Two Billion United States Dollars) to successful local and
foreign
contractors. The (DPR) is now compelling beneficiaries to be paid for
this
Third Quarter first Batch of the year 2018.

The crux of this letter is that the Finance/Contract Department of the
(DPR) under my instruction deliberately over-invoiced the contract
value
of the various contracts Awarded. In the course of disbursements, my
department has been able to accumulate the sum of $31MUSD (Thirty One
Million U.S Dollars only) as the over-invoiced sum.

This money is currently in a suspense account of the (DPR) account
with
the Debt Reconciliation Committee (DRC). We now seek co-operation,
and financial assistance, to process the transfer of this fund
officially
as contract payment to you as a foreign contractor, who will be
fronting
for us as the contractor/beneficiary of the fund. In this way we can
facilitate these
funds into your nominated foreign account for possible investment
abroad.
We are not allowed as a matter of government policy to operate any
foreign
account to transfer this fund into.

Now my questions are: –
1. Can you handle this project?
2. Can I give you this trust?
3. I intend to give you a 30%, if you can facilitate the movement of
this
fund into your account, and assist me financially through the
execution process.

Be informed that on completion of this Project we will use part of our
own
share to invest in your country under your care. Please note that the
transfer
operation will take ten working days to be completed.

Please send the requested information below to ME so that we can
proceed further.

(1) Your Full Name, and contact address.
(2) Your Direct Mobile Line.
(3) Your occupation, and company name if any.
(4) Your Full Banking Details Where the funds will be transferred
into.

Thanks And Remain Blessed

Best regards,
Engr. Harrison Bello.
DIRECTOR, DEPARTMENT OF PETROLEUM RESOURCES (DPR).
Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC)
