files in the records, I discovered that if I do not remit this money out
urgently it will be forfeited for nothing.The owner of this contract money
is Mr. ARTHUR SMITH a foreigner,and a miner at KRUGER GOLD CO., a
geologist by profession and he died since 1999. Noother person knows about
this money or any thing concerning it. The contract money owner has no other
beneficiary and my investigation proved to me as well that this company does
not know anything about this money and the amount involved is (USD 10M) ten
million United States Dollars . but I don't know any foreigner, I am only
contacting you as a foreigner because this money can not be approved to a
local bank here, but can only be approved to any foreign account because the
money is in us dollars and the former owner of the account is Mr.ARTHUR

foreigner too.
I know that this message will come to you as a surprise as we don’t know our
selves before,but be sure that it is real and a genuine business. You are
the only person that I have contacted in this business, so please reply
urgently so that I will inform you the next step to take urgently. Send also
your private telephone and fax number including the full details of the
account to be used for the deposit.
I will fly to your country for withdrawal and sharing and other investments.
I am contacting you because of the need to involve a foreigner with
foreign account and foreign 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 has correct
information of this account, which I will give to you later immediately, if
you are able and with capability to handle such amount in strict confidence
and trust according to my instructions and advice for our mutual benefit
because this opportunity will never
come again in my life.

amount, 60% will be for me, while 5% will be for expenses both parties might
have incurred during the process of transferring.I look forward to your
