Subject: Confidential Proposal From The Minister of Minerals and Energy
MRS. SUSAN SHABANGU
raymondpeter2005i@yahoo.com
Deputy Minister of Minerals and Energy
South Africa.
Dear Friend,
After due deliberation with my children, I decided to
contact you for your assistance in standing as a
beneficiary to the sum of US$14.200,000.00(FORTEEN
MILLION,TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND US DOLLARS ).
http://www.gov.za/gol/gcis_profile.jsp?id=1066 After the
swearing in ceremony making me the Deputy Minister of
Minerals and Energy, my husband Mr Ndelebe Shabangu died
while he was on an official tripto Trinidad and Tobago in
2002.
After his death, I discovered that he had some funds in a
dollar account which mounted to the sum of US$3.5M with
FINANCE SECURITY HOUSE .
This fund emanated as a result of an over-invoiced contract
which he executed with the Government of South Africa.
Though I assisted him in getting this contract but I never
knew that it was over-invoiced by him. I am afraid that the
government of South Africa might start to investigate on
contracts awarded from 1998 to date. If they discover this
money in his bank account, they will confiscate it and
seize his assets here in South Africa and this will
definetely affect my political career in government.
I want your assistance in clearing this money from FINANCE
SECURITY HOUSE. As soon as the fund is cleared, you are
expected to move it immediately into another personal bank
account in your country. I will see to it that the account
is not traced from South Africa. As soon as you have
confirmed the fund into your account, I will send my eldest
son with my Attorney to come to your country to discuss on
business investments.
For your assistance, I am offering you US$2.5 Million
United States Dollars Only) However, you have to assure me
and also be ready to go into agreement with me that you
will not elope with my fund.
If you agree to my terms, kindly as a matter of urgency
send me an email. Due to my sensitive position in the South
African Government, I would not WANT you to call me on
phone or send a fax to me.
All correspondence must be by email to my private email. If
you want to speak with my Attorney, that is fine and okay
by me. His chambers will be representing my interest with
you. All correspondence must be made either to my Attorney
Barrister Chris Obanua of dumebi chambers or send me an
email to my private email box on barrista_johni@yahoo.com
I will also like you to give me your contact address of
telephone, fax and email to enable my Attorney call or
reach you from time to time.
Please I do not need to remind you of the need for absolute
Confidentiality if this transaction must succeed. YOU MUST
NOT CALL ME! If you do not feel comfortable with this
transaction, do not hesitate to discontinue.
Thanks for your anticipated co-operation and my regards to
your family.
Yours faithfully,
MRS. SUSAN SHABANGU
Deputy Minister of Minerals and Energy
