Dear Sir or Madam:

Request for Urgent Business Relationship

I am an underemployed intellectual from north Texas, and I have nothing to do with Nigeria. However, because of my socio-economic background–I was indeed raised on a farm–I am sure I know a Nigerian level of poverty and filth. For this reason (and many more), I am interested in the importation of goods (bricks of gold) and services (Thai transsexual “relief” massages) into my own Fortress Amerika. As a member of the ad hoc committee set up by my government-in-self-imposed-exile, I am currently seeking foreign payment accounts with which I will be able to live the life I grew accustomed to while serving my country (as a Little Ambassador) under the auspices of a Fulbright grant.

My request is anchored on my strong desire to establish a lasting relationship with you and your company. I hence solicit your partnership to enable me transfer into your account the said funds. You have been recommended to me in confidence and I was assured of your ability and reliability to prosecute business transactions that require maximum confidentiality. In other words, send me all your money, you cheap bastards.

Please note that this transaction is 100% safe and guaranteed since the law under which my committee was set up has empowered me to disburse all the funds found to be floating in the redundant account. I shall commence the transfer of the funds immediately after receive the following information by telefax:

(1) your company’s name and full address

(2) your banker’s name, address, telephone and fax numbers

(3) the account number and name of beneficiary.

Thank you, and God bless.
