Nigeriabrev

Här följer en sida med exempel på hur Nigeriabrev ser ut, och hur de är utformade. Detta är inte en fullständig lista eftersom det finns hundratals, kanske tusentals, olika varianter.

Fler Nigeriabrev finns på andra websidor. Se våra länkar.

Ett Nigeriabrev är ofta utformat på ett och samma sätt:

Det har oftast enbart versaler (STORA BOKSTÄVER).
Det börjar oftast med orden "DEAR SIR".
Det är oftast skickat från Nigeria, om det är ett email sänds det från en webmailtjänst, som t ex Yahoo, Hotmail eller liknande.
I brevet finns oftast ett erbjudande om att tjäna stora pengar.
Pengarna som offret skall få kommer ofta från någon illegal aktivitet, men det kan även röra sig om t ex arv eller liknande.
Det är inte sällan som brevskrivarna beskriver sig själva som generaler, direktörer eller tjänstemän i den Nigerianska staten.
Brevet avslutas oftast med att brevskrivaren vill att offret skall kontakta brevskrivaren via fax eller telefon.
Det är vanligast nuförtiden med Nigeriabrev via email. För ett par år sedan var vanlig post vanligast. I USA är fax mycket vanligt.

NIGERIAN NATIONAL PETROLEUM CORPORATION, FALOMO-IKOYI, LAGOS

FROM: DR. AHMED SULE
FAX: 234-1-7591489
TEL: 234-1-7755118

CONFIDENTIAL
TRANSFER OF: US$25M

Sir,

I am making this contact with you on behalf of my colleagues after a satisfactory
information we gathered from Chamber of Commerce and Industries. I am a member
of the TENDER BOARD COMMITTEE of the Nigeiran National Petroleum Corporation
(NNPC) Lagos. Our duties includes: award, evaluation and review of contracts.

In 1996, my committee (TBC) awarded a contract of US$150,000,000 (One Hundred
and Fifty Million United States Dollars only) to a joint venture of SPEIBATIGNOLES
and FOUGEROLLE, for an engineering, procurement, construction of pipeline network
at Eleme Petro-Chemical plant. As it were, the acutal contract sum was deliberately
over-invoiced by us (TBC) with the sum of US$25,000,000.00 (TWENTY-FIVE MILLION
UNITED STATES DOLLARS ONLY). The project was executed, commissioned and the
contractor(s) paid accordingly.

My colleagues and I want to transfer the over-incoiced amount into a viable
foreign account. We have therefore resolved that as long as you can act as the
sole beneficiary of the fund. The following will be the mode of sharing: 25%
(i.e US$6.25M) for beneficiary i.e. owner of account, 10% for expenses incurred
during the course of transfer, and 65% for us the officials.

Let me reiterate at this juncture, that there are top and influential government
officials involved in this transfer and as such I would appreciate it, if this
business is treated with utmost confidentiality. I do hope I can trust you as
regards this matter. In the light of this, I would like you to forward to me
the following information:

1. Your company name and address if any
2. Your personal fax number
3. Your personal telephone number for easy communication.

This will enable us to forward the information to Corporation for purposes
of processing and immediate remittance of this funds to the account that will
be provided by you.

All modalities have been worked out and the necessary machinery put in place
with the officials of the Federal Ministry of Finance and the Central Bank of
Nigeria (CBN) to effect this transfer within the shortest possible time. It
is worthy to note that this transaction is 100% risk free, my only fear is the
confidentiality of this business from your end. It is pertinent to note that
only an expatriate firm can lay claim to this fund. We are barred from operating
foreign accounts as civil servants still serving the government. All communications
should be strictly by e-mail, fax or telephone. No surface mail for security
reasons.

Please send your reply through this my FAX No.: 234-1-7591489.
Your quick response will be highly appreciated.

Yours faithfully,
DR. AHMED SULE.

URGENT, PRIVATE & CONFIDENTIAL.

BUSINESS PROPOSAL

Dear <NAMNET BORTTAGET>

I have mandated to scout for a very reliable foreign investor, participant
with a solid background who is not known as our associate, who will help
us to remove GOLD AND DIAMOND. Currently in a Security company=92s vault which
we now intend to dispose for investment purposes.

However, I am Mr. Koffi Lawrence, I worked with the Federal Ministry of Mines
and Powers as the Director of Exports, we are in a position of raw gold and
diamond which was secure by me and some of my colleagues. These trunk boxes of
raw gold and diamond was removed from the office of the storekeeper, General
in charge of the strong room, where these gold and diamond was parked in our
office. We have successfully removed the trunk boxes outside Ghana to a
neibouring country, which was deposited with a cargo company.

Regard to this transaction, we solicit for your assistance to help us so that
we can use your name and company name to move these raw material to your
country for onward disposal on our behalf. We have planned to use this fund to
purchase your products and other investments in your company.

This cargo company has asked to send a name and address of where to move
these raw materials as soon as possible. This is the reason why we have to
contact you for this urgent need immediately.

I will like to have your private telephone and fax number for easier
communication for this transaction.

I look forward to you immediate response.

Best regard.

MR. Koffi Lawrence

CONFIDENTIAL LADY MARYAM ABACHA

ABACHA COURT
GIDADO ROAD
KANO - NIGERIA.

Dear Sir,

I am Lady Maryam Abacha, wife of Late General Sani Abacha, ex-military Head of State of Nigeria who died on the 8th of June 1998 of heart problems. A friend who was formally residing in your country gave me your contact address. He told me that you are trustworthy though he did not know my real intention. This assurance gave me courage to link you for this particular transaction.

Since the death of my husband, my family has been subjected to all sorts of harassment and intimidation with lots of negative reports emanating from the government and the press about my husband. The present government has also ensured that our bank accounts are frozen and all assets seized.

It is in view of this that I seek your cooperation and assistance in the transfer of the sum of US$44,000,000 (forty-four Million United States Dollars only) being the very last of the family’s fund in my possession and control.

The Federal Government has seized all our properties and frozen all our accounts both local and international after the death of my husband. However my only hope now is this available US$44,000,000 cash which I carefully packaged immediately after the death of my husband and deposited as photographic materials with a security company where my brother in-law is the General Manager and no other person in that security company knows that the actual content in the boxes are money because my brother in law used his position as the general manager of the security company to cover the boxes as if the contents were photographic materials.

I don’t want to invest this fund in Nigeria because the government will confiscate it. Hence the need for you to help me to invest this money in any good business in your country. I am interested in real estate business, stock and I can also invest in some other businesses, which you may consider lucrative and perhaps enter into business partnership with you for our mutual benefit. Furthermore, an arrangement has been made with a relation who is a bank manager on how to transfer the money into your account without any trace of the money after the transfer and all necessary precautions has been taken to ensure risk free on the sides of both parties in this transaction. With respect to your reward, I have decided to give you 20% of the entire sum after the transfer of the money into your account. I decided to give you this percentage in order to motivate you and also to let you feel satisfied at the end of this transaction,

Due to this my family problem which has caused me high blood pressure now; my brother in-law Ahmed will now handle this transaction because he is in a better position to handle this transaction perfectly. If you are willing to assist in receiving this money on my behalf, please, contact my brother in-law, Ahmed Abacha, on the above email address. Ensure to keep this proposal very secret and confidential for obvious reasons and please send to him your private telephone/facsimile number for easy and confidential communication.

I await your immediate response.

Sincerely
Lady Maryam Abacha
