Attn: The President/CEO,
Dear Sir,

Compliments of the day, I am Mr. Karimu Balogun, an
accountant and Personal Assistant (PA) to Mr. Mohammed
Abacha, son of the late Military Head of state of
Nigeria, General Sanni Abacha. I got your contact
through the Commercial Attaché of your country in the
Consular Office here in Abuja in my search for a
reliable business partner for a business transaction.

My Principal, Mr. Mohammed Abacha, has mandated me to
immediately seek foreign assistance to transfer
overseas for investment, the sum of US$150.5M. This
money was realized from a debt buy-back deal. The
agreement was between my Principal, the former
Minister for Steel, Mines and Power, the Minister for
Finance and Economic Development) on one part; and a
Russian Company (TRAJEXPORT) on the other part.

The Nigeria Government awarded the Russian company
TRAJEXPORT a contract in 1989 to rehabilitate the
Ajeokuta Steel Complex in Mid Western Nigeria. The
contract was completed in 1992 and the sum of US$2
Billion owed to them was outstanding. This sum was
never paid up till February 1998.

The agreement included an offer of 50% of the
outstanding amount i.e. ($1billion) by the first
party, to the contractor, on the understanding that
the remaining balance of US$1Billion will be written
off as bad debt. The Russian firm accepted the offer,
as they had lost all hope of getting paid.

Moreso on account of the fact that the Military
Regime, which awarded the contract to them had handed
over to a new Government coupled with the fact that
lack of continuity in Military Government
transactions meant that the Russian Company may never
get paid.

THE AGREEMENT REACHED AND SIGNED, my Principal and his
Partners therefore, used their positions in the then
Government of the day to secure payment approval for
the US$2 Billion owed to the Russian company through
the Ministry of Finance, the Central Bank of Nigeria
and the Debt Management Office. The sum of US$1
Billion was then paid to the Russian company as
negotiated and agreed, thereby resulting in a profit
of US$1 Billion from the deal.

This was shared among the key actors and my principal
got the sum of US$150.5m. Because of various
allegations levelled against him and his late father
however, my Principal is currently under Government
custody as you may know and all his accounts have been
frozen. We have nevertheless managed to keep this fund
secured as it was kept as a Residue Payment with the
Federal Reserve Bank on the executed contract at
Ajeokuta Steel Company.

Now, logistics to have this fund remitted abroad is
being arranged. It is in this regard that I need your
assistance. I am making an offer of 25% of this fund
to you if you can stand by me and provide a safe and
reliable account where the money can be lodged. You
can be rest assured that this proposal is genuine and
risk-free as I am in close liaison with some key and
sympathetic government officials who are willing to
assist in eliminating unnecessary bureaucracy to
enable a quick and successful conclusion of this
venture.

Since the death of his father incidentally, my
Principal and the family has been subjected to all
sorts of harassment and intimidation with lots of
negative reports emanating from the press about them.
The government has seized all their properties and
frozen all their accounts. The family is therefore
embattled and will only need help. You should
therefore consider your assistance as a humanitarian
service to the former first family.

Finally, you are advised to treat this proposal with
utmost confidentiality and contact me via this
mailbox. Let me count on your understanding and
support while looking forward to your urgent response.

With best regards,
Mr. Karimu Balogun
