Early last year there was a major oil spillage in the Niger Delta Region of Nigeria which rendered over 70% of the communities homeless.
I am Abba Abacha, the second surviving son of the late General Sanni Abacha, Nigeria's former Military Head of State who died on the 8th of June, 1998 of Cardiac Arrest. It does not matter whether you or your company does contract project of the nature described here, the assumption is that you won a major contract and subcontracted it to another company, more often than not, big trading companies or individuals of unrelated field win major contracts here in Nigeria and subcontracts same to more specialized firms for execution. Since the death of my Father both the immediate, past and incumbent Government of my Country, Nigeria, have been persecuting my family. I presume you are aware there is a financial dispute between my family ( THEMOBUTU ) and the present civilian Government. A Foreigner an Australia, Late Engr. Steve Moore Snr., an Oil Merchant with the Federal Government of Nigeria, until his death a couple of years ago in a plane crash banked with us at UNION BANK OF NIGERIA, Lagos. Now, since the present Government of my Country is hell-bent on prosecuting, disgracing the good name and image of my entire family and possibly doing more damages to our financial base, I am therefore desirous of handling over the remains of my Father's Money US$28 Million (Twenty-eight Million United States Dollars Only) which is presently SAFELY and SECRETLY kept in CODED CASH in a Security Company outside my Country to evade confiscation by the Nigerian Government or its Agents. Now the contract has been completed and the original contractor has since been paid,but the contract balance of US$38 million,which resulted from the over invoiced contract sum that has been left in a suspense account with the CENTRAL BANK of NIGERIA,is what me and my partners are planning to take out of the country for ourselves. I write to inform you of my desire to acquire estates or landed properties in your country on behalf of the Director of Contracts and Finance Allocation of the Federal Ministry of works and Housing in Nigeria.
