CHAIRMAN/MANAGING DIRECTOR
DEAR SIR /
I KNOW THAT THIS MESSAGE WILL COME TO YOU AS A SURPRISE SINCE WE DO NOT KNOW EACH OTHER BEFORE NOW, BUT FOR THE PURPOSE OF INTRODUCTION ,I AM MR.MARCATHY ZUMA,AN ECONOMICS BY PROFESSION .
RECENTLY, I WAS APPOINTED IN A FIVE-MAN-COMMITTEE (BASED ON FAMILY BACKGROUND)SET UP BY THE SENATE TO RATIFY THE COURSE OF OVER NFLATED SUM FLOATING IN SOUTH AFRICAN RESERVE BANK UNCLAIMED,SINCE 1980 - 2000.
ON THE COURSE OF OUR INVESTIGATION, WE DISCOVERED THAT THE TOTAL SUM OF $43.5M U.S DOLLARS IS CURRENTLY FLOATING IN THE SOUTH AFRICAN RESERVE BANK UNCLAIMED IN TWO SPECIAL ACCOUNTS USED FOR THE DEPOSIT.
AGAIN,AFTER GOING THROUGH SOME OLD FILES IN THE RECORD,I DISCOVERED THAT PART OF THIS MONEY WAS LEFT, BECAUSE OF THE INFLATED CONTRACT SUM BY THE PAST ADMINISTRATIONS TO LOOTHE FROM THE GOVERNMENT TREASURY,AFTER THE END OF APARTHIED RULE. THE ORIGINAL CONTRACTORS USED FOR THIS PROJECTS HAD ALREADY COLLECTED THEIR PAYMENT IN FULL LEAVING BEHIND THIS OVER INFLATED SUM BECAUSE OF THE DISCREPANCIES IN CHECK AND BALACING OF THEIR CONTRACT TERMS AND PAYMENT.
AS THE DETAILS PROVED,ANOTHER OWNER OF THIS ACCOUNT IS MR KARL HEINZE WARAF,A FORIGNER AND A MINNER AT KRUGER GOLD COMPANY ,A GEOLOGIST BY PROFESSION HE DIED SINCE 1987.NO OTHER PERSON KNOWS THAT THIS 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 INVOLED IS US$32.5M}THIRTY TWO MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND UNITED STATES DOLLAR}.THIS MONEY CAN BE IN THE
RESERVE BANK UNCLAIMED FOREVER AND ONLY THE MEMBERS OF THE COMMITTEE CAN JOINTLY CLAIM IT,SO I WAS MANDATED BY THE COMMITTEE MEMBERS TO LOOK FOR A TRUST WORTHY PARTNER ABROAD WHO CAN ASSIST US IN MAKING
THIS DEAL A SUCCESS.
I AM ONLY CONTACTATING 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 THE MONEY IS IN U.S.DOLLARS AND THE FORMER
OWNER OF THE ACCOUNT.MR KARL HEINZE WARAF, IS A FOREIGNER TOO. I WILL LIKE US TO JOIN TOGETHER AS PARTNERS IN THIS DEAL BEFORE WE CAN MAKE THE FIRST TRANFERE,BECAUSE THIS MONEY WILL BE TRANSFERED IN TWO
DIFFRENT POSSIBLE TRANSFER.
AS WE DO NOT KNOW OUR SELVES BEFORE, WE WILL SIGN AN AGREEMENT,BUT BE SURE THAT IT IS REAL AND A GENUINE BUSINESS. PLEASE REPLY URGENTLY SO THAT I WILL INFORM YOU OF THE NEXT STEP TO TAKE IMMEDIATELY.
SEND ALSO YOUR PRIVATE TELEPHONE AND FAX NUMBERS INCLUDING THE FULL DETAILS OF THE ACCOUNT TO BE USED FOR THE DEPOSIT. I WOULD LIKE US TO MEET FACE TO FACE AND DISCUSS WITH SOME OF THE COMMITTEE MEMBERS
AND TO SIGN A BINDING AGREEMENT SO THAT YOU CAN RECIEVE THIS MONEY INTO A FORIEGN ACCOUNT AS A FORIEGN BENEFICIARY.
I NEED YOUR FULL CO-OPERATION TO MAKE THIS WORK FINE BECAUSE THE MANAGEMENT IS READY TO APPROVE THIS PAYMENT TO ANY FOREIGNER WHO PROVIDES CORRECT INFORMATION OF THIS ACCOUNTS, WHICH I WILL GIVE YOU
LATTER, IMMIDIATELY YOU INDICATE YOUR INTEREST AND CAPABILITY TO HANDLE SUCH AMOUNT OF MONEY, YOU WILL THEN FOLLOW MY INSTRUCTION AND ADVICE FOR OUR MUTUAL BENEFITS AND HONEST BUSINESS TRANSACTION, BECAUSE I DO NOT WANT TO MAKE ANY MISTAKE AT ALL. I NEED YOUR STRONG ASSURANCE AND TRUST,ON YOUR CONTACTING, WE WILL DISCUSS A SUITABLE PERCENTAGE OF THE MONEY THAT WILL BE YOURS,FOR ME AND OTHER COMMITTEE MEMBERS,AND THE AMOUNT THAT WILL BE SET ASIDE FOR ALL THE
LOCAL&INTERNATIONAL EXPENSES THAT WILL BE INCURED DURING THE CAUSE OF THIS TRANSACTION.
I LOOK FORWARD TO YOUR EARLIEST REPLY THROUGH MY E-MAIL.
THANKS FOR YOUR UNDERSTANDING
BEST REGARDS
