Subject: urgent assist. from Mr Ndebele..................
Hello
My name is Mr.Molewa Ndebele, I am a consulting auditor with one of the prime banks here in South Africa. I am writing in respect of a foreign customer of my client bank who perished with his whole families on 25TH JULY,2000 in CONCORDE PLANE CRASH [Flight AF4590] with the whole passengers on board. During the course of my auditing work with my client bank, I discovered an account opened in the bank in 1998 by this great INDUSTRIALIST who died without a written or oral 'WILL' attached to the account. On discovery of his death, I further investigated with keen interest to see if I can get any relative of the late industrialist but all proved abortive as no one has come to claim his funds and no other person knows about this account or anything concerning it, the account has no other beneficiary and until his death he was the CEO of his company. The total amount involved issue is $36,000,000.00 USD. [Thirty Six Million United States Dollar].
We wish to start the first phase of this transaction with the transfer of $10,000,000.00 [Ten million] and upon successful transaction without any disappointment from your side, we shall re-apply for the transfer of the remaining balance to your account. I have secretly discussed this matter with a close confidant attorney whom I must involve in order to assist us produce legal back-up documents to substantiate your claims and also to enable us have a smooth and successful transfer of the fund to any foreign bank account which you are going to nominate. On this note, I decided to seek for a reliable foreigner who will act as the foreign beneficiary of the fund by providing his/her bank account where the fund will be transferred. The banking ethics here does not allow such money to stay more than six years without claim otherwise, the money will be recalled to the government treasury as unclaimed and non-operational. In view of this, I got your contact through my personal sea!
rch to
see if you can assist by providing your safe bank account information for the transfer of this fund or find a reliable person who will be capable of receiving such amount in his or her personal account. At the conclusion of the transfer, 65% of the fund will be for me, I will give you 20% of the total transfer sum, 10% for charity both in Africa and in your country while the remaining 5% will be set aside to settle expenses both parties might incure during the transfer process. Upon the receipt of your reply, I will send to you a detailed information about the transaction. I am assuring you that this business is 100% risk and trouble free and that you should not entertain any fear as all modalities for fund transfer can be finalized within 7 to 9 banking days, after you must have applied to the bank as the beneficiary of the fund. When you receive this letter.
I look forward to your earliest reply and you should also include your private Telephone and Fax numbers for easy and safe communication.
Best regards,
Mr.Molewa Ndebele
