My dear friend
I do foresee the surprise this letter will bring to you as it comes from a
stranger. But rest assured as it comes with best of intentions. However,
your address was courtesy of the internet.But after due consideration from
your profile, I became aware and assured of your credibility of handling
this trust and my future. Thus, after my humble decision to solicit for your
understanding and co-operation in this transaction, as it will be beneficial
to all of us involved.
My name is Mr. George Nyerere, from Tanzania. I am the son of the Late
President of Tanzania JULIUS NYERERE, who died on the 14 october 1999 about
four years ago. My father used his position then to make for himself and us
some fortune. My father died after a protracted illness. I was studying
overseas when my father died and I was forced to return for the funeral. His
attorney notified me and my family about my father's will with his chambers.
When I was going through the will, I discovered that my late father had used
his position then to make some money, which he brilliantly transferred and
deposited it with a private Security Company here in Johannesburg, Republic
of South Africa. He deposited this consignment as valuables. The Security
Company does not know that this consignment contains cash money, except the
attorney and me.
The amount is Eight million United States Dollars (USD 8MILLION). However,
my aim of contacting you is to help me and take this sum into your nominated
account in your country or any other part of the world. Secondly, you will
also help me look for a profitable investment overseas because I don't have
knowledge of international investments. As a result of my present situation,
I won't be able to conclude this transaction alone.
If you are interested in helping me out, try and contact me with the above
phone number, or-mail address indicating your interest to help me, not
forgetting to include your private phone and fax numbers for easier
communication. I will then furnish you with more details. I have mutually
agreed to compensate you with 25% of the total sum for your assistance, 5%
for expenses in the course of the transaction. Then the remaining 70% will
remain for my family and me, which you will help us invest.
Be informed that this transaction needs utmost trust and confidentiality.
Note also that the transaction attracts no risk on your side hence all the
modalities for safe, smooth and successful transaction have been arranged by
me.
Looking forward to receiving your urgent reply. God bless you,
GEORGE NYERERE
(JNR)(FOR THE FAMILY)
