Dear Sir,
My name is George Keita. I am the Deputy Accountant of Cote d’Ivoire’s Societe Ivoirienne Raffiannage (S.I.R) with Headquarters in Abidjan, the capital city. My organisation is responsible for the running of the Country’s Refinery. In addition, I am a member of the committee which awarded the contract for the rehabilitation of the Refinery which suffered a fire disaster October last year.
I am contacting you, having been mandated to do so by my colleagues in the contract awarding committee, purely on the basis of business to inquire if you could provide us an overseas bank account which we could use to transfer some money which we made from the contract which we awarded for the rehabilitation of the burnt Refinery. This money which we want to transfer out from here in Abidjan was made by way of inflating the value of the contract which we awarded for the rehabilitation of the burnt Refinery. The true value of the contract was USD$ 42 Million. But we inflated it to the sum of USD$62.5 Million thereby making for ourselves the sum of USD$22.5 Million. It is this money which we want to reclaim and transfer through the paying Bank here in Abidjan now that the contractors who executed the contract have started being paid.
I am contacting you purely on the basis of business. I and my colleagues have worked out the modalities by which we will reclaim this USD$22.5 Million. The modality will basically require that we find a foreign businessman or woman whose offshore company we will project as having supplied consultancy service and materials for the rehabilitation of the Refinery. Once we find such a foreign businessman or woman, we will have his or her company registered through a lawyer as having supplied Consultancy Service and materials for the rehabilitation of the Refinery , backdating such registration to fall within the period the contact was awarded and thereafter, we will process the payment and have the money transferred out the overseas
account.
If you are interested in handling this business, I would like you to reply me and do the followings:
- tell me how much you would like to be paid for this transaction
- give me your particulars so that I and my colleagues will consider your credentials and make our final decision.
If after we receive your reply and particulars, meet and decide to work with you, we will forward your particulars to a lawyer who will proceed to register you as having supplied materials for the rehabilitation of the refinery and thereafter begin to process the payment and transfer of the money to the Bank account which you will provide.
Please do bear in mind that after receiving your particulars and we consider it and agree that we will go ahead to work with you, we would like to see you in person so that we will know the face of our partner.
Finally, I would like to draw your attention to the fact that all of us in the contract awarding committee are still in active service in the Government. This is the major reason why we decided to look for a foreign businessman or woman like you given that in an attempt to handle this thing ourselves, we are likely to end up being exposed. In this regard therefore, we would like you to keep this matter close to your chest.
While I await your reply, let me wish you the best.
George Keita.
