Dear,
I hereby contact you personally concerning the situation in my bank. In
order to transfer out {us$34,000,000} thirty four million us dollars, I have
the courage to look for a reliable and honest person who will be capable for
this important business believing that you will never let me down either now
or in future. I am Dr Mbonwi Simon, the Regional computing auditor of (FIRST
NATIONAL BANK OF SOUTH AFRICA) JOHANNESBURG BRANCH(FSB). There is an account
opened in this bank in 1985 and since 1990 nobody has operated on this
account again. After going through some old files in the records I
discovered that if I do not remit this money out urgently it will be
forfeited for nothing according to South Africa laws and act of 1993,the
money will be revert to this country government treasury after 16 years if
there is no valid claim.I need a foreign partner that will present as a
relative to this late man.
I concluded to transfer this money overseas for proper investment that will
benefit me.The owner of this account is Mr. Daniel B.Jones, a foreigner,and
a Miner at Kruger Gold Co.a geologist by profession and he died since 1990.
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 this company does not know anything about this account and the amount
involved is us$34,000,000 Thirty Four million dollars. I am only contacting
you as a foreigner because this money can not be approved to a local bank
here, but can only be approved to any foreign account because the money is
in US dollars and the former owner of the account is Mr. Daniel B Jones,who
is a foreigner too. I know that this message will come to you as a
surprise as we don't know ourselves before,we will sign agreement, but be
sure that it is real and a fund. I only got your contact address from my
secretary during a normal routine search, i believe in God that you will
never let me down in this business, you are the only person that I have
contacted in 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 or sign a binding agreement to bind us
together so that you can receive this money into a foreign account or any
account of your choice where the fund will be safe. I am contacting you
because of the need to involve a foreigner with foreign account and foreign
beneficiary. 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 later
immediately, if you are able and capable to handle such amount in strict
confidence and trust according to my instructions and advice for our mutual
benefit. I need a truthful person in this businessn because I don't want to
make mistake and I need your strong assurance and trust. With my position
now in the office I can transfer this money to any foreigner's reliable
account which you can provide with assurance that this money will be intact
pending my physical arrival in your country for sharing. I will destroy all
documents of transaction immediately we receive this money leaving no trace
to any place.you can also come to discuss with me face to face after which I
will make this remittance in your presence. I will use my position and
influence to effect legal approvals and onward transfer of this money to
your account with appropriate clearance forms of the ministries and foreign
exchange departments. At the conclusion of this business, you will be given
3O%of the total amount, 70%will be for me and my family, I look forward to
your earliest reply through
