DEAR,
RE: TRANSFER OF ($125,000.000.00 USD)
ONE HUNDRED & TWENTY FIVE MILLION DOLLARS
I want to transfer ($125,000.000.00 USD) One Hundred & Twenty five million
United States Dollars from a Prime Bank here in South Africa to an oversea
account. First, I must solicit your strictest confidence in this
transaction. This is by virtue of it's nature as being utterly confidential.
I am sure and have confidence of your ability and reliability to prosecute a
transaction of this great magnitude.
I solicit your assistance to enable us transfer the said amount into your
safe account for unward investment.You can either provide us with an
xisting account or to set up a new Bank account immediately 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 of this important business trusting in
you and believing that you will never let me down
either now or in future.
I am the personal account officer to the great late INDUSTRIALIST who has an
account in one of the top banks here in South Africa. The account was opened
in 1998 and he died in 2003 without a written or oral WILL and since 2003
nobody has operated on this account again hence the money is floating and if
I do not remit this money out urgently it will be forfeited
for nothing.
The owner of this account is a foreigner and no other person knows about
this account or anything concerning it, the account has no other beneficiary
and until his death he was the manager of the company.My investigation
through the National immigration department proved to me as well that he was
single as at the time of his entry into the Republic of South Africa. The
amount in this account is USD$125 Million ( One Hundred & Twenty five
Million United States Dollars ) only. As a matter of fact,
I have decided to transfer this fund abroad for investment. Your
assistance as a foreigner is necessary because the management of the bank
will welcome any foreigner who has correct information to this account
which I will give to you immediately, if you are interested to do this
business with me.There is no risk in this business. With my position and my
personal contact with the manager of the bank, the money can be transferred
to any account you can provide with assurance that this money will be
intact pending our physical arrival in your country for sharing. We will
start the first transfer with Twenty five million [$25,000.000].
Upon successful transfer without any disappointment from your side, we
shall re-apply for the payment of the remaining balance of $100 Million to
your account. I am only contacting you as a foreigner because this money
can not be approved to a local person here, but can only be pproved to any
foreigner who has the correct information of the account which I will
provide for you. So you should provide me with your correct account detail
where you will like the fund to be transferred or you can set up a new
account for the transfer even an empty account is ok. At the conclussion of
the transfer you will take 35%,5% will be for any expenses both parties
incurred in the process of this business and the emaining 60% will be for
me. As soon as I hear from you and upon your strong assurance that you will
not let me down once the fund goes into your account I will then start the
processing of the transfer of the fund to your account without further
delay.Contact me urgently via telephone or email for further details.
Thanks.
Yours Faithfully,
Mr:Kethson Mour.
