Please note that some fraudsters are
claiming to be the Executive Chairman, Ibrahim Lamorde or staff of The Economic
and Financial Crimes Commission have recently been sending phony e-mails/letters
and also calling unsuspecting persons, with intent to defraud them. It is
important to note that these fraudsters are criminals engaged in advance fee
fraud. People throughout the world are falling victim to scams of various kinds.
But remember - if it sounds too good to be true, it is probably a scam. In view
of these, we unreservedly advice you to dissociate yourself from all
correspondence and transactions entered into based on evidently fraudulent and
fictitious claims.
