I know that this message will come to you as a surprise since we don't

an account opened in this bank in 1980 and since 1990 nobody has operated
on this account again. After going through some old files in the records,
I discovered that if I do not remit this money out urgently it would be
forfeited for nothing. The owner of this account is Mr. Smith B. Andreas,
a foreigner,and a miner at Kruger gold co., a geologist by profession and
he died since 1990. No other person knows about this account or any thing
concerning it,
the account has no other beneficiary and my investigation proved to me as
well that his company does not know anything about this account and the
amount involved is (USD 35M) thirty five million United States Dollars .I
am only contacting you as a foreigner because this money cannot be approved
to a local bank here, but can only be approved to any foreign account because

so that you can receive this money into a foreign account or any account
