A variation on the NNPC/ripped-off-by-"Patrice Miller" letter, but too pompous to ignore and apparently involves members of numerous government agencies who were savvy enough to steal millions of dollars but somehow not savvy enough to manage to move it overseas.

MAY I CRAVE YOUR INDULGENCE TO OPEN THIS BUSINESS DISCUSSION BY A FORMAL
LETTER OF THIS SORT. IT IS PERTINENT THAT BUSINESS OF THIS MAGNITUDE SHOULD
HAVE COMMENCED PROPERLY WITH A FORMAL MEETING OF YOU AND US TO ENABLE US
KNOW OURSELVES, HAVE A FORE KNOWLEDGE OF THE NATURE OF THE BUSINESS, DISCUSS
AND ACQUAINT OURSELVES WITH THE RESPONSIBILITIES AND FUNCTIONS OF PARTIES
CONCERNED, AND APPROPRIATE SHARES ACCORDINGLY. HOWEVER, FOR TIME FACTOR,
CONFIDENTIALITY AND PERSONALITY OF PEOPLE INVOLVED HERE IN NIGERIA, WE CHOSE
THIS APPROACH FOR THE REMITTANCE OF FIFTEEN MILLION, FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND
U.S DOLLARS (US$15.5M), PLEASE BEAR WITH US FOR MAKING THE INITIAL CONTACT
THROUGH E-MAIL. BUT MY PARTNERS ARE INSISTING FOR A MEETING INORDER NOT TO
FALL INTO A WRONG HAND AGAIN.
WE ARE MEMBERS OF THE SPECIAL COMMITTEE FOR BUDGET AND PLANNING OF THE
MINISTRY OF PETROLEUM THIS COMMITTEE IS PRINCIPALLY CONCERNED WITH CONTRACT
APPRAISAL AND THE APPROVAL OF CONTRACTS IN ORDER OF PRIORITIES AS REGARDS
CAPITAL PROJECTS OF THE PAST MILITARY GOVERNMENT OF NIGERIA WITH OUR
POSITIONS WE HAVE SUCCESSFULLY SECURED FOR OURSELVES THE SUM OF FIFTEEN
MILLION, FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND U.S DOLLARS (US$15.5M). THE AMOUNT WAS
ACCUMULATED THROUGH UNDECLARED WINDFALL SALES OF CRUDE OIL DURING THE GULF
WAR.
HENCE TOGETHER WITH SOME OF THE TOP OFFICIALS OF THE NIGERIAN NATIONAL
PETROLEUM CORPORATION, THE FEDERAL MINISTRY OF FINANCE AND THE CENTRAL BANK
OF NIGERIA. WE PLAN TO TRANSFER THIS AMOUNT OF MONEY FIFTEEN MILLION, FIVE
HUNDRED THOUSAND U.S DOLLARS (US$15.5M) INTO AN OVERSEAS ACCOUNT BY AWARDING
A NON EXISTING CONTRACT FROM MY MINISTRY (NNPC). TO THIS EFFECT I DECIDED
TO CONTACT YOU AND ASK FOR YOUR ASSISTANCE.
WHAT WE NEED FROM YOU SIR, IS TO PROVIDE A VERY VITAL ACCOUNT IN WHICH THE
FUNDS WILL BE TRANSFERED. MY COLLEAGUES AND I HAVE AGREED TO COMPENSATE THE
OWNER OF THE ACCOUNT USED FOR THIS TRANSACTION WITH 30% OF THE TOTAL AMOUNT
REMITTED. WE SHALL KEEP 60% AND REMAINING 10% RESERVED FOR TAXES AND OTHER
MISCELLANEOUS EXPENSES.
IT MAY INTEREST YOU TO KNOW THAT LAST TWO YEARS A SIMILAR TRANSACTION WAS

FLOOR, NEW YORK 10022 WITH TELEPHONE NUMBER (212) 308-7788 AND TELEX NUMBER
6731689. AFTER THE AGREEMENT BETWEEN BOTH PARTNERS IN WHICH HE WAS TO TAKE
20% OF THE MONEY WHILE THE REMAINING 80% FOR US. WITH ALL THE REQUIRED
DOCUMENTS SIGNED THE MONEY WAS DULY TRANSFERRED INTO HIS ACOCUNT ONLY TO BE
DISAPPOINTED ON OUR ARRIVAL IN NEW YORK, AND WE WERE RELIABLY INFORMED THAT
MR. PATRICE MILLER WAS NO LONGER ON THAT ADDRESS WHILE HIS TELEPHONE AND
TELEX NUMBERS HAVE BEEN REALLOCATED TO SOMEBODY ELSE THAT IS HOW WE LOST
US$8M TO MR. PATRICE MILLER.
THIS TIME AROUND WE NEED A MORE RELIABE AND TRUSTWORTHY PERSON, A REPUTABLE
COMPANY TO DO BUSINESS WITH HENCE THIS LETTER TO YOU, SO, IF YOU CAN PROVE
YOURSELF TO BE TRUSTED AND INTERESTED IN THIS DEAL THEN WE ARE PREPARED TO
DO BUSINESS WITH YOU. WHAT WE WANT FROM YOU IS THE ASSURANCE THAT YOU WILL
