Attention: Sir/Madam .
I am Timipre Sylva,I find your name and address with your contract
number NNPC/PDF/C-NIG-25/1999/2000 contract amount US$45.5M in the
Federal Government of Nigeria contract payment list on my table.
Why am contacting you and to informing you about it is because the funds
/ contract number is in your name as the contractor / beneficiary of
the funds and I wants to make a deal with you, I believe that is going
to out for us if you will come out with your Godly mind everything is
going to be 50/50.
I will take cares of all the documents here in Nigeria, only thing you
are going to do for me is comply with me i will bring an attorney that
will process all the documents of the contract with contract number and
the Amount in your name as the contractor to Federal Government of
Nigeria with this contract number ( NNPC/PDF/C-NIG-25/1999/2000 ), am
going pay for the lawyer and processing of all the documents in the
court of law.and all the documents will be forward to you.
The only thing you are going to do for me is to comply with the lawyer
because he will open communication with you as the contractor. This year
2021 Federal Government of Nigeria have map out US$3.8 Billions to pay
all our own beneficiaries and also signed agreement with EU,IMF,UN, AU
and American government to back up and monitor the transaction
EU,IMF,UN, AU and American government has approved five countries for
this payment and every contractor / beneficiaries will visit in the bank
to sign all the releasing documents for the release of the funds, so
your work in this transaction is visit the bank with all the approved
documents as the contractor /beneficiary and you will pay small / toking
for the signing fee in the bank hall when you will visit and meet the
payment officials face to face, the signing fee will be a small amount
of money.
The processing of the documents with lawyer fee and other things that
will come up will cost me like US$97,000.00 you are not going to send
any money to me or lawyer for anything in this transaction only money
you are going to spend is the signing fee and that will be face to face
in the country / bank the payment will be approved but not in Africa.
Thank you and God bless you and your family , Happy New Year 2021.
Am waiting for your urgent response.
