Re: Invitation to a Rewarding Partnership
Subject: Remittance of $15,600,000.00 American Dollars into your account.
It is my great pleasure to write you about this high rewarding business Proposal.
I got your contact from network online and I hope that you will be capable
and reliable to handle this confidential mutually beneficial business and
that all confidential information will be handled with the same strict professionalism
that you expect from me.
I am a top official in the Presidency. With the cooperation of two other
officials, we have in our possession an over due payment in US funds. These
funds represent certain percentage of a contract value executed by a foreign
company, which was deliberately over invoiced to the tune of Fifteen Million,
Six Hundred Thousand United States Dollars (US$15,600,000.00). The actual
contract amount haven been paid to the contractor, it is the excess balance
of US$15.6M that we now intend to transfer immediately to your designated
company or personal account.
The South African government strongly believe that foreign direct investments
are the engines to sustainable economic development, to that extent, government
have continued to encourage foreign investments by promptly paying all debts
owed foreign contractors.
These have provided foreign investors new or expanded investment in South
Africa with rich rewards and wealth of opportunities - the rewards certainly
exceed the risk by unimaginable high margins.
With the cooperation of some top officials at the Department of Finance and
the South African Reserve Bank (SARB), we will include the excess balance
bill for approval and immediate transfer to your account without any hitch.
We are therefore seeking your MORAL and FINANCIAL cooperation to be the beneficiary
of the excess amount because the law forbids serving government officials
from owning or operating foreign accounts. I have the authority of my colleagues
to propose 25% compensation to you, 75% compensation to us.
You must assure us of total confidentiality. The transaction is 100% SAFE,
RISK-FREE AND LEGAL and we strongly insist on a 100% utmost confidentiality
as we are still in active government services. I have reposed my confidence
in you trusting that you will not betray us.
It is on this premise that we look forward to your positive response and
be rest assured of 100% Legal and mutually beneficial rewarding business
relationship.
Yours truly,
Mr.jabulani moleketi
