Subject: BUSINESS PROPOSITION!!
Dear Friend,
I am barrister Gabriel Fassie, solicitor and notary public, the personal
attorney to Mr. Mark G. Klaus. On the 26th of May 2002, my client his wife
and two daughters were involved in a car accident along Pretoria express
road South Africa. Unfortunately they lost their lives in the event of the
accident.
I am writing this letter to solicit your cooperation in order to redeem
an investment interest currently being held under trust with the South Africa
ministry of Energy and Mineral resources. The said investment now valued
at (10.5million United States dollars) was originally purchased by my late
client leased to the Free Estate Consolidated Corporation in 1999 for (4)
years.
The duration for this lease has long matured and I have been contacted by
the company to produce my client?s next of kin to file in application for
claims. Hence, I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin of
the decease. These funds could be confiscated if I do not present his next
of kin within a short time given.
I could file a claim for this money to this ministry claiming that you are
the next of kin to my late client, Mr. Mark G. klaus as the beneficiary
and next of kin to the funds, as soon as the claims is approved the stated
sum will be transferred into any account of your choice after which I shall
travel to meet with you to discuss investment plans.
I now seek your permission to have you stand as the next of kin to my client,
all documentations will be carefully worked out by me for the release of
this fund in your favor, please acknowledge receipt of this message in acceptance
of our mutual business endeavor by furnishing me with the following information;
1. Your name and address
2. Direct telephone/mobile and fax numbers
This information?s will enable me file in a letter of claims to the appropriate
departments for necessary approvals in your favor, before the transfer can
be affected.
We would reserve 10% of the funds for Charity purposes and the balance 90%
will be shared between us on a final conclusion of this project.
Please do not take undue advantage of this trust I have bestowed in you.
I would also like to inform you that I have a financier for this business,
so you don?t have to spend any money of your own.
Please reply me, through my personal email:gabrielfassie1@netscape.net or
gabrielfassie@walla.com, if you are interested, but if you are not it will
enable me scout for another foreign Partner.
Regards,
Gabriel Fassie (Barrister at Law)
