LAGOS - NIGERIA

HELLO,

I WISH TO INTRODUCE MYSELF TO YOU.

I AM IDRIS MOMOH (SAN) SENIOR PARTNER FOR IDRIS 
& ASSOCIATES LAW CHAMBERS, A LAWYER/ATTORNEY TO HAMZA
AL MUSTAPHA WHO WAS THE FORMER CHIEF SECURITY OFFICER
TO THE MILITARY DICTATOR OF NIGERIA, GENERAL SANNI
ABACHA. THE LATE GENERAL SANI ABACHA DIED UNEXPECTEDLY
ON THE 8TH OF JUNE 1998. HIS COLLEAGUES IN THE ARMY
POISONED HIM IN THE PRESIDENTIAL VILLA (ASO ROCK)
BECAUSE HE RULED NIGERIA WITH AN IRON HAND AND
HE DID NOT WANT DEMOCRACY IN THE COUNTRY.

WITH THE DEATH OF THE DICTATOR, ELECTIONS WERE HELD
IN THE COUNTRY AND A CIVILIAN ADMINISTRATION WAS SWORN
INTO POWER. WITH THE ADVENT OF THE NEW CIVILIAN
ADMINISTRATION, A DECISION WAS TAKEN BY THE PRESIDENT
OF NIGERIA TO PROBE AND PROSECUTE ALL MILITARY
OFFICERS
THAT SERVED IN THE LAST MILITARY REGIME OF THE LATE
GENERAL SANNI ABACHA.

MY CLIENT, MAJOR HAMZA AL MUSTAPHA WAS SINGLED OUT BY
THE GOVERNMENT OF THE DAY AS AN ARMY OFFICER THAT MUST
BE PUNISHED BECAUSE OF HIS CLOSENESS TO THE LATE
DICTATOR AND GROSS HUMAN RIGHT ABUSES ON THE CITIZENS
OF NIGERIA. MY CLIENT AND I WERE BEST OF FRIENDS AND
HE SHARED HIS  SECRETS WITH ME.

THE FORMER CHIEF SECURITY OFFICER TO THE LATE HEAD
OF STATE MAJOR HAMZA AL MUSTAPHA HAD PRIVATE ACCOUNTS
THAT ARE WORTH 100 MILLION UNITED STATES DOLLARS 
ROUND THE WORLD. PRESENTLY HE HAS BEEN ARRESTED BY THE
GOVERNMENT OF THE DAY AND IS PRESENTLY IN PRISON
WAITING TO BE TAKEN TO COURT ON CHARGES OF GROSS HUMAN
RIGHT ABUSES ON THE CITIZENS OF NIGERIA. I WAS
DIRECTLY INFORMED BY MY CONTACTS AT THE PRESIDENTIAL
VILLA, THAT HE WILL BE CONVICTED BECAUSE OF HIS
POSITION AS THE FORMER CHIEF SECURITY OFFICER TO THE
LATE DICTATOR.

SHORTLY BEFORE THE PRESENT GOVERNMENT ARRESTED MY
CLIENT, HE ENTRUSTED TO ME THE SUM OF TWENTY -SIX
MILLION, FOUR HUNDRED THOUSAND UNITED STATES
DOLLARS (us$26,400,000.00) FOR SAFEKEEPING. THIS
AMOUNT WAS TO BE SENT TO HIS MISTRESS IN LEBANON TO
LAUNDER FOR HIM.

I HAVE SINCE HAD THIS AMOUNT WITH ME STASHED AWAY A
PRIVATE SECURITY COMPANY IN NIGERIA. I CANNOT SEND
THIS MONEY TO MY CLEINT'S MISTRESS ANY MORE BECAUSE OF
THE SITUATION OF THINGS OVER HERE. AS A RESULT OF
THIS I HAVE BEEN MANDATED BY MY CLIENT TO SOLICIT
FOR A PARTNER ABROAD WHO IS WILLING AND READY TO
ASSIST IN RECEIVING THE $26.4 MILLION. THEREFORE,
I NEED YOUR ASSISTANCE IN MOVING AND SECURING THIS
MONEY IN YOUR ACCOUNT ABROAD. YOU WILL BE ADEQUATELY
COMPENSATED WITH 15% OF THE TOTAL SUM FOR YOUR
ASSISTANCE AND CO-OPERATION WITH ME TO MOVE
THIS FUNDS OUT OF THE COUNTRY.

I INTEND TO SAFEGUARD AND INVEST THIS AMOUNT OF
MONEY ABROAD WITH A RELIABLE FOREIGN BUSINESS PARTNER
SO THAT WE CAN INVEST THE FUNDS IN REAL ESTATE
BUSINESS OR ANY VIABLE BUSINESS IN YOUR COUNTRY.
THAT IS WHY I AM SOLICITING YOUR ASSISTANCE AND
COOPERATION AS REGARDS THIS BUSINESS. ARRANGEMENTS
HAVE BEEN CONCLUDED WITH A SECURITY COMPANY IN EUROPE
TO RECEIVE THE MONEY IN CASH DEPENDING ON WHERE IS
CONVENIENT FOR YOU. PLEASE INDICATE YOUR WILLINGNESS
TO ASSIST ME BY SENDING TO ME THE FOLLOWING 
FORMATION;
YOUR COMPANY NAME ADDRESS AND YOUR PRIVATE PHONE AND
FAX NUMBERS SO THAT I CAN CONTACT YOU AND COMMENCE THE
TRANSACTION IN EARNEST.

I AM WAITING TO HEAR FROM YOU VERY SOON.

BEST REGARDS,

IDRIS MOMOH
