From:Fania Tomson,
Director OF Audit AND Contract Payment,
Niger-Delta Development Commission(NDDC)
Lagos,Nigeria.
Date:7 -08-2003. 
It is indeed my pleasure to write to you this letter, which I believe,
will be a big surprise as we are both complete strangers.
I am the Director of Internal Audit, contract payment of Niger-delta development commission,lagos-Nigeria.A commission set up by the present government of my country to correct the past injustice done
to the oil rich province of the niger-delta,During the cause of our annual audit,we discovered an abandoned sum of $17.5 million(Seventeen million Five hundred thousand US dollars) in our account that has been dormant (Marked contract payment fund)and we have since requested in our National dailies for claimants to the account to come forward. On further inquiry i discovered that the money in question is an over-inflated contract amount done by the former board members of ompadec a brother commission set up by the previous government to bring about development in the area. 
We have since escrowed the funds now for over the stipulated period of four years and the funds are now in the process of been transferred as unclaimed deposit by our board of Directors.It is upon this discovery that I and other officials in my department decided to make this business proposal to you and release the money to you as the beneficiary since nobody is coming for it and we don't want this money to go into the Commission Treasury as unclaimed bill. The Banking rule here stipulates that if such money remain unclaimed after five years,the money will be transferred into the government Treasury as unclaimed Bill. 
The request for a foreigner as the real beneficiary of the unclaim fund in this transaction is occasioned by the fact that the said fund was claim to have been as a result of contract executed by a foreign firm and a Nigerian cannot stand as a beneficiary to claim the money. 
We are therefore soliciting for your assistance to come forward as the beneficiary of this fund,what you need do is provide the needed particulars to lay claim and all the documents to back this claim will be prepared by us and the fund will be paid to you as the real contractor starting with an affidavit at our court to back it. We have agreed that after the transaction which will take a maximum of 10 working days, 30% of this money will be for you and 65% would be for me and my colleague while 5% will be for expenses incurred during the cause of the transaction. 
After the money has being transferred to your Account, I and the two other colleagues involved in this transaction will proceed immediately to your country for our own share of the money which we hope to invest in some lucrative business in your country based on your advice. I expect you to keep this business strictly confidential as you may wish to know that we are still in service and would not want anything that will pull us down. 
Be rest assured that this business is 100% risk free on both sides as every arrangement to ensure a hitch free transfer of this fund to the nominated Account you are to provide have been concluded. immediately i hear from you via email I will give you my contact information and the next step as regards this transaction. before anything will be done a memorandum of understanding (m.o.u)binding us all as regards this transaction will be drafted and signed between us before we proceed.
I look forward to your earliest response through my private email address given below.
faniatom@sify.com <mailto:faniatom@sify.com> for security reasons.
Thanks,
Yours sincerely,
Fania Tomson.
