Dear CBxxxxxx ,

Greetings! My name is Myles Dugenfelder, an Australian contractor working with Sicogi, a road construction company and I am also a commission agent. Presently I am in Ivory Coast for a road construction contract that will last through the end of the year.

First, I must let you know the essence of this contact and how it shall benefit both of us. From the information I got from the Federal Ministry of Environs & Agriculture, here in Abidjan state the Southern Ivory Coast, the government is about awarding a Pest Control Contract to any reputable company with International Standard that can come to Ivory Coast to execute a contract.

Furthermore, the pest control contract is going to take place in the abandoned Grasshoppers International Hand Ball Stadium, “Stade International De Boule De Main De Sauterelles” where the company will start working on the clean up of the stadium and environs, also evacuation of pests, termites, cockroaches, rats etc... Are to take place because that's the proposed venue for the up-coming sports festival to take affect Soon.

The said area occupied 22 acres of land space including the games village. Can your company handle such a big contract? I am introducing you based on commission bases; I will help your company with the help of my friend in the ministry to make sure this contract will be awarded to your company.

Be informed that the ministry will be responsible for contacting the Ivory Coast embassy in your country to help facilitate your travelling documents, such as the issuance of your visas to Ivory Coast depending on how many field workers coming for the job. I want you to quote your price for this contract and add my commission, the ministry will pay 100% advance before the contract begins and payments are only done by Bank Transfer, my friend in the ministry will use his weight in the office to make sure this contract is awarded in your company's name.

Let me know if you can handle such a big contract and also let me know if you can be able to come to Ivory Coast. I can be reached at any time on +225-01-63-44-91 that's my mobile number in Ivory Coast.

Thanks so much for your time,

All the best,

Egnr. Myles Dugenfelder.

So, I do a little Google and it doesn't take long to find a rather similar offer titled Pest Control Partnership. To save clicking and to cover that the page might disappear one day, it goes like this:
