Subject: MUTUAL PROPOSAL
Dear ,
I am Zeke Randle, The Director of Delivery/Operations in a security company
here in South Africa.
Our firm is a security company of high repute with years of outstanding
service to the people of Africa especially top government officials and
military leaders here in Africa.
I have resolved to contactyou through this medium based on business proposal
that will be of mutual benefit to both of us.
I have not discussed this transaction with anybody because it is of top
secret.
To be explicit and straight to the point, Some time early 1997, a reputableclient
of ours deposited a consignment in our company's vault for safe keeping.
And since then our client has failed to come forward to claim his consignment,
which has accumulated a considerable amount of money in demurrage.to redeem
the demurrage
Consequently, in our bide to contact this client which his consignment had
accumulated we discovered that our client was the former president of the
Federal Republic of Zaire, who died of illness after he was dethroned in
the same year the consignment was entrusted into our care.
Since the death of our client President Mobutu Seseseko, none of his benefactors
has come forward to claim the consignment with us, which means that non
of his relatives or aids had any knowledge of this consignment.
Hence out of curiosity I decided to secretly scan the box and to my greatest
surprise I discovered that the two boxes that were registered as treasures
by our client actually contained a considerable amount of money in United
States Dollars estimated to be over Twenty Five Million Five Hundred Thousand
Dollars (US$25.5m).
Since this development I have been nursing plans secretly. I also found
out from enquiries and the foreign media that ourlate client siphoned alot
of money from his country while he was in office as head of state. It is
my conviction thatthe consignment inour vault was part of the money that
our client siphoned and now thathe is dead there is no trace to this money
in our care.
I am now soliciting your noble assistance to assist me in transferring this
money out of South Africa to your country for immediate investment with
your assistance.
I have also decided that you will generously be entitled to 20% of the total
amount Upon my receipt of your reply confirming your willingness to assist
me of this transaction,I will immediately arrange and transfer all the rights
of ownership of this consignment to your name to facilitate your easy clearance
and transferof the complete funds to your country for onwards investment.
This transaction is 100% risk free.
Please maintain absolute confidentiality on this matter.
Do reply to:-zekerandle@echina.com
I await your most prompt response.
Yours faithfully,
Zeke Randle.
