Anybody see the light show this morning? A half an hour later, I found this guy in the back yard sitting in my daughter's inflatable pool mumbling something about space travel.

I wonder if it was related to this email I recieved last night:

 

FROM: THE DESK OF DR.VICTOR UBA.

 

FEDERAL MINISTRY OF PETROLEUM RESOURCES

 

Alternative email:ubavictor@web-mail.com.ar.

 

Dear Sir,

ACCOUNT.

 

May I respectfully invite your kind attention to the above subject matter and to

state that based on information gathered from the relevant Federal Ministry of

Trade, Commerce and Tourism, we, intend to solicit your assistance in the

execution of a business transaction. It is our sincere conviction that you will

handle this transaction with absolute confidentiality, maturity and utmost sense of

purpose.

I wish to further inform you that we have twenty Million U.S. Dollars(US$20M)

which accrued overtime from deliberately inflated contract awarded in my Ministry

(Federal Ministry of Petroleum Resources) and executed by a consortium of

multinationals in the Oil Industry. The projects executed include the following:

1. The expansion of pipeline network within Nigeria for Crude Oil and Downstream

products distribution and subsequent evacuation.

2. Contract for the Turn Around Maintenance (TAM) of the three Refineries In the

country.

3. The construction of storage tanks for Petroleum Products (Depots).

 

Consequently, we humbly request your gracious assistance and permission

towards the remittance of the above stated amount into a

personal/company/offshore account nominated by you.

 

We propose tentatively that you will receive 30% of the total sum, and the

remaining 70% is for my colleagues and me.

However, this is negotiable in the event of your willingness to assist.

 

Could you please notify me of your acceptance to carry out this transaction

urgently by email email

addresses:ubavictor@web-mail.com.ar only, on the receipt of this message. I

shall in turn inform you of the modalities for a formal application to secure the

necessary approvals for the release of this fund into your account.

 

This transaction from the day of commencement will not take more than ten(10)

working days.

 

Thanks for your co-operation.

 

Yours sincerely

 

Dr.Uba Victor
