I've copied it below. I ignored the first 2, but I couldn't believe I got 3
more from different people completely, but they all have something to do
with petroleum and the bank of Nigeria. But why me??
I'm sending them to the address for West Africa police someone posted on the
forum (thanks, whoever it was!)

BOARD OF TRUSTEE, PETROLEUM (SPECIAL) TRUST FUND PTF Building, Victoria
Island Lagos.
FROM THE OFFICE OF: DR.JOHN OBE (MNIM)
DIRECT TELFAX : 234-1-804-2907 or 234-1-804-8078
ATTN: PRESIDENT/CEO: APPERLEY DESIGN
Dear Sir,
BUSINESS PROPOSAL: TRANSFER OF US$15.6 M (FIFTEEN MILLION SIX HUNDRED
THOUSAND UNITED STATES DOLLARS) & BUSINESS INVESTMENTS PARTNERSHIP
First, I must solicit your strictest confidence in this transaction,
this is by virtue of its nature as being utterly confidential and top
secret as you were introduced to us in confidence through the Nigerian
Chamber of Commerce, Foreign Trade Division.
I am Dr.John Obe , the Secretary of the Federal Government of Nigeria
Contract Award and Monitoring Committee (CAMC) of the Petroleum
(Special)Trust
Fund (PTF). Sometime ago, a contract was awarded to a conglomerate of
Foreign Companies by my committee on behalf of PTF, the contract was
over-invoiced to the tune of US $15.6 Million.This was done deliberately,
the over-invoicing was a deal by members of my committee to benefit from
the project,
we now desire to transfer the money, which is presently in a suspense
account of PTF in the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) into an overseas
account which we expect you to provide. We have agreed that the following
funds will be shared thus after it has been paid into your account;
a) 30% of the money will go to you for acting as the beneficiary of the
fund.
b) 10% has been set aside as an abstract projection for reimbursement
to both parties for incidental expenses that may be incurred in the course
of the transaction. c) 60% to us the government officials (which we wish
to commence an important business in conjunction with you)
I Would Require
a) Name and address of Company/ Beneficiary
b) Proforma Invoice / Letter-Head Paper
The above information would be used to make formal applications as a
matter of procedure for the release of the money and onward transfer
to your nominated account. It does not matter whether or not your company
or you does contract projects of the nature described here, the assumption
is that you won a major contract and subcontracted it out to other
companies,
more often than not, big trading companies or individuals of unrelated
field win major contracts and subcontracts to more specialized firms
for execution of such contracts.
We have strong and reliable connections and contacts at the Central Bank
of Nigeria (CBN) and The Federal Ministry of Finance and we have no doubts
at all that this money will be released and transferred if we get the
necessary foreign partners to assist us in this deal. Therefore, when
the business is successfully concluded we shall through the same connections
withdraw all documents used from all the concerned government ministries
for 100% security.
We want this money to be transferred to the foreign account which you
are going to provide bearing in mind that our civil service code of conduct
forbids us from owning foreign company or running foreign account, all
expenses regarding the account opening if not already in existence shall
be borne by you, all expenses are however reimbursable as already stated
above on conclusion of business.
Please acknowledge the receipt of this letter if you are interested and
send the required documents mentioned through my Telephone number
234-1-804-2907,fax
Number 234-804-8078 , for more details on this transaction .
The Telephone may be busy, please keep on trying till you get through.
I wait in anticipation of your cooperation.
Yours Faithfully,
Dr.John Obe (MNIM)
