Default My Fault

After I made my original post to sell my motor, weeks later, I was told that the motor had good rods in it (and not by eastside they where not part of this). So when Eric( a friend) asked I said it has good rods in the motor. Obviously I was wrong. The $500 that you still owe me eric pays for the rods and then some. They are $375 for eagle rods. Send me the machine shop bill and I will reemberse you. THis was not fair to you but I honestly sold it to you thinking there was a good set of rods in it. As far as the oil pan and and missing misalanous(sp.) parts you said dont worry about it but if you want them go see kenny. I am sure he will give them to you since the parts where taken off the motor while at eastside. He prolly has them around the shop somewhere.
I did not intentionally mean to mislead Eric friends are not worth that and that is that.

Hi Eric,

I got your particulars through a reliable and close friend who just arrived from your country a few months ago. I am a member of the Federal Government of Nigeria Contract Award and Monitoring Committee in the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC).

Sometime ago, a contract was awarded to a foreign firm in NNPC by my Committee. This contract was over-invoiced to the tune of US $21.5M U.S.Dollars. This was done deliberately. The over-invoicing was a deal by my Committee to benefit from the project. We now desire to transfer this money which is in a Suspense Account with NNPC into any Overseas Account which we expect you to provide for us.

SHARE
For providing the account where we shall remit the money, you will be entitled to 30% of the money, 60% will be for me and my partners while 10% has been mapped out from the total sum to cover any expenses that may be incurred by us during the course of this transfer, both local and international expenses.

We have strong and reliable connections and contacts at the Central Bank of Nigeria and Federal Ministry of Finance and we have no doubts that all this money will be released and transferred if we get the necessary foreign partner to assist us in this deal. Therefore, when the business is successfully concluded we shall through our same connections withdraw all documents used from all the concerned Government Ministries for 100% security.

We are ordinary civil servants and will not want to miss this once in a life time opportunity to get rich. We want this money to be transferred to the Overseas Account for us, before the present Military Government hands over to a Democratically Elected Government. This is why we are desperate.

Please contact me immediately through telephone or fax message whether or not you are interested in this deal. If you are not, it will enable me scout for another foreign partner to carry out this deal.

Respectfully submitted,

Scotty Wheels

Hey give Scotty some credit here... it appears he's owning up to a "mistake" and going to try and make it right for Eric.

No Eagle Rods- "Eric keep the $500 to pay for the rods and then some"....

Machine shop bill- Eric send the bill and Scotty will reimburse you...

Sounds like it's almost the original agreement! A long while later, but still.


Good luck with it guys!!
