Hello,
Best Compliments of the Year.
We want to transfer to overseas ($10,000.000.00 USD) Ten Million United
States Dollars) from a prime Bank in Africa, I want to ask you to quietly
look for a reliable and honest person who will be capable and fit to provide
either an existing bank account or to set up a new Bank a/c immediate to
receive this money, even an empty a/c can serve to receive this money, as
long as you will remain honest to me till the end for this important business
trusting in you and believing in God that you will never let me down either
now or in future.
I am Mr Jabarah zaghawa the Auditor General of EcoBank in Africa, during
the course of our auditing I discovered a floating fund in an account opened
in the bank in 1990 and since 1993 nobody has operated on this account again,
after going through some old files in the records I discovered that the
owner of the account died without a (heir) hence the money is floating and
if I do not remit this money out urgent it will be forfeited for nothing.
The owner of this account is Mr. Allan P. Seaman, a foreigner, and an industrialist,
and he died, since 1993. And no other person knows about this account or
any thing concerning it, the account has no other beneficiary and my investigation
proved to me as well that Allan P. Seaman until his death was the manager
Diamond Safari (PTY) SARL.
We will start the first transfer with Four Million ($4,000.000) upon successful
transaction without any disappointment from your side; we shall re-apply
for the payment of the re maining rest amount to your account.
The amount involved is (USD 10M) Ten Million United States Dollars only.
I am revealing this to you with believe in God that you will never let me
down in this business, you are the first and the only person that I am contacting
for this business, so please reply urgently so that I will inform you the
next step to take urgently.
Send also your private telephone and fax number including the full details
of the account to be used for the deposit. I want us to meet face to face
to build confidence and investments. I need your full co-operation to make
this work fine because the management is ready to approve this payment to
any foreigner who has correct information of this account, which I will
give to you upon your positive response and once I am convinced that you
are capable and will meet up with the instruction of a key bank official
who is deeply involved with me in this business.
I need your strong assurance that you will never, never let me down, with
my influence and the position of the bank we can transfer this money to
any foreigner's reliable account which you can provide with assurance that
this money will be intact pending our physical arrival in your country for
sharing.
The bank official will destroy all documents of transaction immediately
we receive this money leaving no trace to any place and to build confidence
you can come immediately to discuss with me fact to face after which I will
make this remittance in your presence and three of us will fly to your country
at least two days ahead of the money going into the account.
I will apply for annual leave to get visa immediately I hear from you that
you are ready to act and receive this fund in your account.
I will use my position and influence to obtain all legal approvals for onward
transfer of this money to your account with appropriate clearance from the
relevant ministries and foreign exchange departments.
At the conclusion of this business, you will be given 35% of the total amount,
60% will be for me and my colleague, while 5% will be for expenses both
parties might have incurred during the process of transferring.
