Dear Friend,
I am Mr.Frank van Baarsel, i work as the capital projects manager (PetroSA)
in South Africa`s oil producing company the Sable Mining Company, i am
writing to introduce a partnership business to you which is in my hand and
ready for execution since my cheif executive officer has entrusted me with
this huge business transaction to source for a trust worthy and relaible
business man who can partner with us in this business endeavour which is of
mutual benefit and 100% risk free since we have all modalities fashioned out
to have this business completed without any hitch.
You can learn more about South Africa`s oil producing here.

There is an over invoiced funds in the tune of 13million usd and 56million
respectively, which is floating in our companies account as i write you this
mail and this funds are an over invoiced funds from 2 major oil supplies
sold to some local refinaries such as BP and Shell , after a careful look on
how we can transfer this funds out of south africa without any problem we
decided to employ the use of a Diplomat who conveyed the funds in
consignment directly to an independent security firm in Europe and Canada
for safe keeping untill we are able to find a sincere and reputable
individual who can handle such funds and transfer it to his account before
we shall share the funds in the
percentage which we will agree upon.
I and my partner have concluded agreed and to give you 20% for your
assistance and to cover for any expenses that you may incure during the
course of this transaction since you may need to travel to met with the
security firm in person for the release and claims of the funds in cash and
the remaining 80% will be for me and my partner as the originator of this
business transaction.
Furthermore i solicit your assistance in receiving this funds in your name
or company name since me or my partner can not receive this funds in our
names as the laws of this country restricts any government official to hold
a foreign account or have such an amount in his local account since it is
not deffendable,you will agree with me that no government official is
expected to have such a huge amount in his account.
Subject to my satisfaction,i will urge you to protray a very high level of
confidentiality in this business due to its nature since we are still in
active service.
Do get back to me on your sincere abilities of in this business to enable me
bring you to a clearer picture on how we would commence with this business
as i have already scheduled that this business be completed within a short
period of time if we work together seriously.
Sincerely,
Mr.Frank van Baarsel
