Documents That my late boss Left Behind with me, Of Which My Name
appears as the owner of the deposit. And presently the Security
Company management awaits My Coming for the Withdrawal of
of this Lodgement with them. This is a problem
because I have gone into hidding as a result of his business associate.Who has been looking for me.
I earnestly solicit for your assistance to come to South Africa to withdraw the
consignment from the security company for immediate transfer to your country and then I will follow you back to
your country where me and my families want to settle down forever and invest the money in any venture you trust and suggest for

ready and he has worked out all the procedure to transfer the money overseas pending on your arrival because I told him that I have a foreign partner to receive the fund.
