Subject: Project implementation!
FROM:ENGR.ROWLAND G.DESMOND DUBE
(Director, Project Implementation)
Dear Sir/Madam.
My Name is ENGR. ROWLAND G.DESMOND DUBE, Director of Project
Implementation, South Africa Ministry of Mines & Natural Resources.
First and foremost,I do have to apologize using this medium to contact
you in this business.It is due to the prompt access reposed on this
medium.In unfolding this proposal,I have to count on you as a respected
and honest person who would be ready to handle this transaction with
utmost sincerity and trust. I have decided to seek your confidence and
co-operation in the execution of this deal described hereunder because
it is a very sensitive business,and of high magnitude.I beleive you will
be capable enough to handle the transaction and keep it secret.
During the committee previous over-hauling and auditing of the Ministry
(Mining and Natural resources) account,where I serve as the Director of
Project Implementation, we discovered unclaimed contract sum of Fourteen
Million, Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars in the ministry
escrow account. When we discovered this fund,we decided to carry out
other secret investigation in details about its source. It was dury this
proper findings,We discovered that the funds resulted from a contract
that was long ago executed by a foreign contractor, Mr.Clifford
Anderson,and while he was yet to claim the contract entitlements from
the Ministry, he was reported dead on a plane crash when he visited his
home country.
Ever since then nobody as a relative or friend to late Mr Clifford
Anderson has come forward to honoured any of the invitations made by
those Government Officials who were serving in the Ministry during the
despensation when the Contract was awarded and executed,in order to
claim the fund. Presently,all those government officials who were in
charged of the contract execution had been scrapped out from service as
a result of some financial mismanagement.Consequently there is no other
person that knows anything about the contract and its entitlement that
is still in active service,except I and my committee members who are in
the same department.At this moment, the fund is only just floating in
the ministry's escrow account without bearing (unclaimed). And in
accordance with the South Africa Contractual Law,if contact entitlement
is left unclaimed within a stipulated time, it will therefore be
forfeited.
In this circumstance, we are sourcing for God fearing,honest and a
reliable person who we can trust and use as our frontier to claim the
fund from the escrow account of the ministry by acting as the relative/
representative to late Mr.Clifford Anderson. We have made all the
concrete arrangement on how the fund can be transferred to your bank
account without any possible implications from the government of my
country and that of your country too.This is because we have the
principle access to all the necessary documentation /approval,which
would legalize the transaction for the remittance of the Fund by Key
Tested Telegraphic Transfer (K.T.T) to any foreign bank account that you
will provide for this business.
I am also mandated by my partners in this business to propose to you
that,your share in the business will be Twenty percent of the Fourteen
Million, Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars. But after we must
have transferred the funds into your bank account, Five percent will be
deducted from the total amount for our general refreshment right there
in your country,for the successful conclusion of the transaction,and to
settle any expenses that may be incured individually or collectively
before we can finally disburse the balance amount according to the
arranged percentage.
Endeavour to contact me immediately through my email,and you can also
send to me your Telephone or fax for further correspondence you if you
are interested and ready to front for us in this deal.This will enable
me know whether to source for another foreign partner who will be
interested.
I wait in anticipation of your positive response.
Best regards,
Engr.Rowland G.Desmond Dube.
