Hello, random total stranger with a free webmail account. We would like to add your/company's name among the contractors owed by the Government of Nigeria for contract executed for the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation. Sounds reasonable to me.

Hello,

I am James Peters, the Chairman, Contract Award Commitee (CAC), Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC). I came across your contact from the internet while searching for a liable foreigner who could assist us in a business that requires utmost trust.

We, the CAC, are conducting a full-quarter reconciliation and revalidation exercise on contract files that were destroyed in the fire incident that burnt down our Lagos office in December, 2003, and, as a mandate of the Presidency, to pay all owed foreign contractors whose contract payments have been suspended pending the reconciliation and approval of this Committee. We would therefore like to add your/company's name amongt the contractors owed by the Government of Nigeria for contract executed for the NNPC. Hence this mail for assistance.

We will let you have the complete information and the practicability of this project when we have your consent toassist.

While you take time to consider this proposition, we would like to assure you there is no risk involved and that you are dealing with gentlemen with names and reputations to protect.

We look forward to receiving your earliest response, in any case.

Regards.

James Peters.
