04 ATTENTION:Friend,
05 Your contact was made available by the corporate affairs department of our
06 trade ministry. I am glad to introduce this transaction to you hoping that
07 you will love to partake in it and jointly accomplish same with us to our
08 mutual benefits.
09 I am the principal legal adviser to the account section with the BANQUE
10 CENTRALE DES TOGOLAISE and presently a member of the audit review panel of
11 the same corporation. During a recent review, we discovered that the sum of
12 (US$12,000,000.00) Twelve MILLION UNITED STATES DOLLARS floating in a
13 suspense account at our Apex Bank as a result of over invoiced contracts
14 already executed.
15 I and my colleagues and have therefore resolved to avail this rare
16 opportunity to our advantage and consequently have perfected a risk free
17 scheme to transfer this fund abroad. But as civil
18 servants, we cannot operate foreign account, therefore we need somebody
19 who can provide an enabling offshore account to facilitate the transfer of
20 the funds.
21 We are therefore seeking your assistance and permission to remit this
22 amount into your account. Your commission will be 35% of the total sum, 5%
23 has been set aside for reimbursing cost of expenses during the course of
24 the transaction and the balance of 60% is for me and my colleagues.
25 Could you please notify me of your acceptance to carry out this transaction
26 through the above stated fax upon receipt of this message. I shall in turn
27 inform you of the modalities for a formal application to secure the
28 necessary approvals of the immediate release of this fund into your
29 account.
30 Thanks for your co-operation.

32 Yours faithfully,
33 Mr.Solomon Shangirila
