Nigerian National Mining Company
Lagos, Nigeria

Attention: President/CEO Hussein

I am to representing the Nigerian National Mining Company with headquarters here in Lagos. Before a recent IAEA (International Atomic Energy Agency) inspection visit, our plant manager came across a quantity of uranium we over-mined, apparently in violation of international accords. Needless to say we are quite embarrassed at our over-efficiency, and we are safely storing the uranium ore. We are very much afraid when inspectors return in the summer; they will discover our error and levy punishments on our humble mining company.

It is for this reason I write to you today. You have been recommended for your honorable and historic honesty and goodness. We are certain that a great leader like yourself can find some useful way in which to use this ore. Through agents, we promise to deliver 5,000 (FIVE THOUSAND) tons of yellowcake uranium for the modest deposit of $27,500,000 (TWENTY-SEVEN MILLION, FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND) in American dollars.

If this transfer would be acceptable, we would need the following information:
1) Your country’s/company’s name and address:
2) Your bank’s name, telephone number, and fax number
3) The account number you would like us to use
4) The port of entry where we can deliver a Liberian freighter containing ore

In any event, we trust you do not mention this to any IAEA inspectors currently working in your country. We are unable to sell the yellowcake on the open market because of all the regulatory agencies involved.

If it would be possible for you to assist us, we would be most grateful. We could arrange a meeting here in our capitol city at your earliest convenience, and I can arrange for you to meet the board members of our modest but illustrious company.

Please call me at your convenience at 011-18-467-4975. Time is of the very essence in this matter. Soon the inspectors will discover we possess more yellowcake ore than we should have in our reserve.
