GREETINGS.
I am PRINCE DANIEL MACNOEL , the second son of the late KING MOSHOESHOE SEEISO II.I am 28 years old and a final year student of Medicine in the WITS MEDICAL SCHOOL here in Johannesburg, South Africa where I am presently writing my final exams. With regards to
detailed information and recommendation of your person and company from the Johannesburg Chamber of Commerce and Industries (JCCI). I wish to ask for your favor and assistance in this confidential business with you involving the transfer of US$26 Million (TWENTY-SIX MILLION, UNITED STATES DOLLARS) only into your personal or company's account for safe keeping till when I come to your country.
This money was given to me as a portion of inheritance from my father during his ill days, and before his death in a ghastly motor accident in 1996 and was never disclosed to anyone in the family except my two Sisters. Due to polygamous battle for the struggle for birthright who ecomes my father's successor to the Lesotho Dynasty, this problem wrecked the entire family; my dear life was at stake for the pursuant of this goal. I am my mother therefore deposited the fund into a Security Company here in Johannesburg to avoid the jeopardy of this fund because we have no legitimate right to operate an account in South Africa. Recently my father's properties were shared among his four wives. Eventually,
my mother happens to be the third wife although she died a year after my father died and we had little or nothing out of it all because, they suspected that I had conspired with my late father to seal some properties within my reach as I was my father’s favorite son due to my career in education and my general attitude. All I want from you is to assist me in claiming my consignment from the Security Company and assist me also in transferring the fund into your account. Also, it will be imperative that you come to South Africa so that we can hold a meeting and to open a non-resident account under which the money will be lodged into before onward transfer to your designated bank account. I am currently in loggerhead with my stepbrother, LETSIE III, we do not agree in virtually everything in life. He ostracized me from family affairs because I questioned his extravagant R10 MILLION about (US$1.6M) marriage.
This is the reason why I want to transfer the money out of South Africa because he is a member of South African Development Community (SADC), and he has been monitoring my movement after we had that quarrel. Please, if there is any way you can assist me morally, kindly reach me with the number above. I have mapped out 20% of the total money for you, 75% will be for me and 5% will be set aside for any expenses that might be incurred in the process of this transaction, and to compensate the bank officials who will help us in this transaction. Please endeavor to keep this business confidential to avoid tarnishing my royalty.
God bless you!
PRINCE DANIEL MACNOEL
(Royal Palace of Lesotho)
