Subject: HELLO
Let me start by introducing myself . I am Morgan Njambo, Credit Officer of the First National Bank of South Africa. I have a concealed business suggestion for you. There was a prominent Governor in a state of Nigeria who was recently impeached and arrested for what is generally beleived to be politically motivated trial. This man currently in detention made a numbered fixed deposit for 18 calendar months, with a value of Thirty millions Five Hundred Thousand United State Dollars in my branch and I am in charge of his account which is due to mature on the 31st of January 2006.
This man has been under serious probe by the Nigerian Government who are bent on seizing all his assets including money abroad sent an urgent message to me recently through his son to do everything possible to conceal this deposit by moving the money to a safe location from the prying eyes of the Nigerian Government. This man has been a customer with this bank for the past 10 years before he became a politician and I don't know why he is under presure even having been relieve of his job. I am therefore willing to assist him in any way.
The amount deposited is due to mature on the 31st of January 2006 and it can only be renewed by the depositor . If within a week after maturity, the depositor did not come forward, I as the Account Officer is obliged to report to the Executive Director Operations who will report the deposits to the Reserve Bank. When this happens the depositor is on his way to loosing his money if he gives no proper explanation thereafter. To forestal this scenario, I have put the bank on notice in the name of the depositor to have the money transfered to an Account in a bank in Spain with another standing instruction that the money be moved to a yet to be submitted account in another Country.
My reason for contacting you is that he money will be credited to the Spanish bank on the 1st of February 2006 and I will need your help and assurance to move the money to your own Account in your Country or anywhere and you will be adequatelly compensated at the end of the transfer. I have the assurance of the depositor to this effect.
Should you be interested please contact me through my confidential email: morgannjambo@accountant.com
Kind Regards
Morgan Njambo.
