Dear Sir/Madam,
I am Evangelist Ernest Bongani, the first son of late Dr.John Bongani. I am a
citizen of Swaziland. My late father was the managing director of Aluminum
Company in Swaziland but unfortunately he died in the year 2002 after a
protracted
illness. Due to poor management of the company in my country and for the fact
that I am so dedicated to church activities realized that I am too young to
manage a large company of that type and most of the director have already began
to divert the net profit being generated from the company.
I therefore arrange with my father?s lawyer and sold the entire company to Mr.
Alan Foster from Poland at the price of US$20,500.000,00(Twenty Million,Five
Hundred Thousand United States Dollars). Due to constant pressure from some of
my relatives and also fear of likely attack on my family to hijack the fund, I
arrange with my mother to transfer the fund to one of the security and finance
company in South Africa, where I am currently staying with my mother and other
sister. However, I am into pastoral activities now and most of my time is been
dedicated to church activities. At the moment, we want to transfer the fund to
overseas account for investment because there is no good investment atmosphere
here in South Africa.
I therefore need your assistance to enable me transfer the fund into your
private/companies account overseas so that we can relocate to plan for the
investment of the fund through your personal assistance. I need your assistance
in investing the fund because I have little experience of investment/management
of the fund. It is also my plan that after the successful transfer of the fund
into your overseas account, I will first relocate my mother and other sister to
stay with you, while I will complete my theological school. What I need from you
is honest and sincerity because this fund is my life and the life of my family.
If you can assist us in this transaction, I will give you 25% of the total fund
for your assistance,and 5% for any expenses both parties may incur during the
process of the transfer while 70% will remain in your account for (2 years) to
enable me complete my school and join my family to plan for the
investments.Please,
be assured that this transaction is 100% risk free. I await your soonest
response.
Regards and God bless.
Evangelist Ernest Bongani.
