RE: ADVISE FOR IMMEDIATE CREDITING


Owing to the blacklisting of Nigeria by the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) of the International Monetary
Fund (IMF) and the Financial Crimes Prevention Network of the United States Treasury, effort has been
intensified towards improving the image of the country.

The Organization for Economic Co-operation & Development (OECD), in conjunction with the National
Committee on Money Laundering and Financial Crimes, under the auspices of the Federal Executive
Council of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, has deemed it fit and conspicuously agreed that HALIFAX
PLC, being the accredited bank in United Kingdom, should carry out all financial obligation /transaction
forthwith, for and on behalf of the Federal Government of Nigeria and it’s Parastatals.

In view of that, the Committee, haven considered its consequence / implications and the emanation of the
blacklisting, and thus came to the conclusion that it was as a result of the inability of various Government
owned parastatals to offsets debts owed to it’s foreign contractors and the monumental fraud accosted it
that culminated to the blacklisting.

Consequently, HALIFAX PLC, under the surveillance of the Committee, with the approval of the Federal
Executive Council (FEC) of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, has assented and approved the payment of
your contract proceed and, this will be credited to your designated bank account with immediate effect via
this institution, through Acct No. HFP/CBN NO: 4008801-35

Prior to the final remittance as has been dully approved by the Executive Sub Committee of the National
Committee on Money Laundering and Financial Crimes, it will be appreciated if you will reconfirm your
banking and contract particulars so as in order not to remit your fund in error.

Be of note that this bank is on a rescue mission and as such, will do everything in its powers to guide
against infringement / infiltration from any quarters as impostors and miscreants might seize the
opportunity to extort money. In that context and to forestall further irregularities, we will advise that any
correspondence that does not bore (HALIFAX02), should be ignored, dishonoured and treated with
caution as we will bear no responsibility for any loss sustained by any person or corporation that fails to
heed to this warning in the hope of receiving his or her contract payment long over due.

While appreciating the Federal Government of Nigeria effort haven reposed this enormous responsibility
on us, we thus pledge our allegiance to full commitment towards salvaging and improving the image of the
country Nigeria already battered.

Yours faithfully
