FROM: Auditor Fred Joseph
DATE: 4th October 2004
HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL
With great pleasure I am writing this proposal on behalf of my partners.A
member of our government trade delegation to your country gave your impeccable
profile to me. Hence I have decided to seek your cooperation,due to the
sensitivity of this transaction and my commitment as a civil servant.
I am Auditor Fred Josep. An Auditor Manager in my Bank. In South Africa.
There is an account opened in this Bank in 1990 and since 2000 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 DR. H. PAUL JACOBI, a foreigner, and a miner
at Kruger Gold Co. A Geologist by profession and he died since 1999. In
an air crash along with his wife in 31st October died sincerer 1999 an Egyptian
airline 990 with other passengers on board. You can confirm this from the
website below from publisher by CNN.WEBSITEPUBLISHEDONCNN.
http://www.cnn.com/US/9911/02/egyptair990.list/index.html
No other person know about this account or anything concerning it, the account
has no other beneficiary and my investigation proved To me as well that
his company does not knowanything about his account and the amount involved
is (US$ 18.5)Eighteen Million Five Hundred Thousand 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 anyforeign account because
the money is in US Dollars and the former owner of the account is DR. H.
PAUL JACOBI is a foreigner too.
Our constraint is to be able to source an honest and trustworthy individual,
to whom we can remit these funds and act as trustee pending our visit, since
our period of diseng
agement from the civil service is near.
We are presently affected by the South Africa civil service code of conduct
laws that prohibits civil servants from operating private foreign accounts.
I have the authority of my partners in office to propose that should you
be willing to assist us in this transaction, your share as compensation
will be US$3.9M (20% )while my colleagues and I receiveUS$13. 15m(70%)and
the balance of US$ 1.45M(10%) for taxes and other miscellaneous expenses
This transaction is 100% risk free provided you treat it with utmost secrecy
and confidentiality. Furthermore, your area of specialization is not a hindrance
to the successful execution of this transaction.
REQUIREMENTS: What we expect from you by fax during
reply are:
(a) Name and address of your Bank
