RE: APPROVAL AND PAYMENT AUTHORISATION FOR US$9.4 ON 'PAYMENT APPROVAL NO. ECO/0371/216/09'
As a result of the high-powered investigation ordered by the presidency on the activities of the central bank of Nigeria and other government institutions as it concerns foreign contract payments.
Sir, be advised that you are been contacted based on one of the contract cases that has long been overdue for payment. In one of the files that was investigated, all available evidence shows that the beneficiary have not received any part of the payment which is held up at the eco bank of Nigeria by the corrupt CBN officials. This office has completed investigations and
established reasons for non-transfer of the approved payment.
Some officers of the central bank of Nigeria have made it practically impossible for the contractors to get paid by distorting original information's in the contractor's records and request such contractors to provide frivolous documents with intention of defrauding the contractor.
However we are able to trace the fund at the Eco bank of Nigeria where the CBN corrupt officials diverted the fund since the 1999 as an unclaimed payment. Note that the fund was discovered in 2 trunk boxes at the eco bank finance safe-keeping department under the names of the 4 CBN corrupt officials.
Your contract file was marked not accredited payment as beneficiary has been confirmed dead. And this simply means that the owner of this payment is dead as the letter from the beneficiary's attorney and death certificate contained in the file states that the beneficiary died of heart failure.
Based on our investigations preliminary report to the office of the presidency, exposing the fact that the death certificate that was found in your file is forgery and an attempts which diverted your funds to an unknown ghost account, the president have ordered the immediate remittance of your contract payment to your bank account from the eco bank of Nigeria were the fund was discovered.
You are hereby informed that approval has been given for the payment of the outstanding sum totaling us$9.4 {nine million, four hundred thousand united states dollars} by telegraphic wire transfer from the eco bank of Nigeria.
