I am Mr. Ben Alabi (MNIM),the co-ordinator of the Federal Government of Nigeria Contract Review Panel of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation(NNPC).

Sometime ago, a contract was awarded to a conglomerate of foreign companies by my committee on behalf of (NNPC),the contract was over invoiced to the tune of US$24.5 Million.

Benefits:
for providing the account where we shall remit the money, you will be entitled to 25% of the money, 70% will be for me and my partners, while 5% has been mapped out from the total sum to cover any expenses that may be incurred by us during the course of this transaction, both local and international expenses.

I would require:
a. Name and address of company/beneficiary
b. Your bank account number, bank address and information.

The above information would be used to make formal applications as a matter of procedure for the release of the money for onward transfer to your account. It does not matter whether or not your company or you performed contract projects of the nature described here, the assumption is that you won a major contract and sub-contracted out to other companies.
