    NIGERIA NATIONAL PETROLEUM CORPORATION (NNPC)
    PETROLEUM AND PROJECT DIVISION
    LAGOS – NIGERIA.
    E-mail: elvisw1@terra.com.ve


    ATTENTION: DIRECTOR\CEO


    This letter is not intended to cause any embarrassment in whatever form, rather
    is compelled to contact your esteemed self, following the knowledge of your high
    repute and trustworthiness. Firstly, I must solicit your confidentiality, this
    is by the virtue of its’ nature as being utterly confidential and top secret.
    Though, I know that a transaction of this magnitude will make anyone
    apprehensive and worried, but I am assuring you that all will be well at the end
    of the day. I assure you that a bold step taken shall not be regretted.


    I am Mr. Elvis Williams and I head a seven man tender board in charge of
    contract awards and payment approvals, I came to know about you when I was
    searching for a reliable and reputable person to handle a very confidential
    business transaction which involves the transfer of a huge sum of money to
    foreign account requiring maximum confidence. My colleagues and I are top
    officials of the NIGERIA NATIONAL PETROLEUM CORPORATION {NNPC}. OUR DUTIES
    INCLUDE VETTING, EVALUATION AND FORE SEEING THE MAINTENANCE OF THE REFINERIES IN
    ALL THE DESIGNATED OIL PIPELINES. We are therefore soliciting for your
    assistance to enable us transfer into your account the said funds. Our country
    losses a lot of money everyday that is why the international community is very
    careful and warning their citizens to be careful but I tell you "A TRIAL WILL
    CONVINCE YOU".


    The source of the fund is as follows; during the last democratic dispensation in
    Nigeria this committee awarded a contract of US$400 million to a group of five
    construction companies on behalf of the NIGERIA NATIONAL PETROLEUM CORPORATION
    for the construction of the oil pipelines in Kaduna, Port-Harcourt and Warri
    refineries. During this process, my colleagues and I deliberately inflated the
    total contract sum to the tune of US$428 million with the intention of sharing
    the inflated sum of US$28M. The government has since approved the sum of US$428M
    for us as the contract sum, but since the contract is only worth US$400 million,
    the remaining US$28 million is what we intend to transfer to a reliable and safe
    offshore account, we are prohibited to operate foreign account in our names
    since we are still in government (Civil Service). Thus, making it impossible for
    us to acquire the money in our name right now, I have therefore been delegated
    as a matter of trust by my colleagues
    to look for an oversea partner whose account we can transfer the sum of US$28
    million.

    My colleagues and I have decided that if you/your company can be the beneficiary
    of this funds on our behalf, you or your company will retain 20% of the total
    sum US$28 million, while 75% will be for us the officials and remaining 5% will
    be used for offsetting all debts/expenses incurred during this transaction.


    We have decided that this transaction can only proceed under the following
    conditions:

    That you treat this transaction with utmost secrecy and confidentiality and
    conviction of your transparent honesty.

    That upon the receipt of the funds you will release the funds as instructed by
    us after you have removed your share of 20%.

    Please acknowledge the receipt of this letter using the above telephone and fax
    numbers, including your private telephone/fax numbers then will I bring you into
    the nomenclature of this transaction.


    Your urgent response will be highly appreciated as we are catching on the next
    payment schedule for the financial quarter. Please be assured that this
    transaction is 100% legal/risk free and only trust can make the reality of this
    transaction.


    Best Regards,
    MR. ELVIS WILLIAMS.

    Come on, Elvis lives! 'I am Mr. Elvis Williams'. Honestly these things crack me up! How can someone see Nigerian, large sum of money, and honesty in the same letter and not laugh. How the heck does Nigeria import stuff? :D 'No, really, I want to buy these items and have them shipped to Nigeria', yes I will pay with a CC, why are you asking so many questions?'...

    If that email was 110% legal, risk free, I would jump on it. I just don't have time for the 100% deals.
