IMMEDIATE CONTRACT PAYMENT ON CONTRACT # :MAV/NNPC/FGN/MIN/009

Based on our investigation department, that is why we wish to warn you against some Miscreants, Hoodlums and Touts who go about scamming innocent people by claiming to be who they are not and thereby tarnishing the image of this wonderful country Nigeria.

As a matter of fact, the Federal Government of Nigeria have stopped further payment through bank to bank transfer due to contractors numerous petitions to United Nations against Nigeria on wrong payment and diversion of contract funds to different accounts. AGAIN, ANY MAIL OR CALL WITHOUT THE CODE ABOVE, DO NOT RESPOND FOR SECURITY REASNS.

Therefore, We have this 7th Day of July, 2008 received a payment credit instruction from the federal Government of Nigeria to credit your account with your full contract funds from the Nigerian reserve account with our bank.

This is to notify you that your funds have been programmed for immediate release into your nominated bank account but we can not transfer this fund direct to your nominated bank account, because we are having a little problem with International Monetary Fund (IMF) so our method of payment is by Diplomatic Courier Service. Be informed that every arrangement regarding your cash payment through diplomatic services has been made, note that your funds have been packaged like a consignment.Note that the Diplomatic Agency has to move down to your Country in order to deliver the Consignment to your doorstep.

You have to help the diplomats to get (yellow Tag Paper) so that the customs and immigration will not stop them at the Airport, for security reason you are advised to follow the rules and regulation of the diplomats for easy collection of the consignment, you have to welcome the diplomatic agents, to enable them deliver the Consignment to you immediately.

Be also informed that as soon as the diplomats obtain the above name
certificate they will deliver the Consignment to your door step.

This consignment have been registered with FBI and there is no course for alarm because this is the best way that you can get your fund without any problem due to the numerous scam activities on the internet, it is not safe to send one's bank information anymore, so that is why we choose this method to effect your contract payment through a consignment and you are advised to provide all information so that there will not be any further delay in your payment.

We are very sorry for the delays in your contract payment, please bear with us.
However, you are to reconfirm to us the following information so that the consignment does not go to the wrong person.
