Dear Amarjit Singh,
I am Mr. Jeffrey Themba, a nationality of Zimbabwe. I wish to inform you about an immensely beneficial business transaction that involves the sum US$57.4M (Fifty Seven Million Four Hundred Thousand United States Dollars) which was deposited by my late father in my name as the beneficiary in a private Security Company in Republic of South Africa before his untimely death. I have decided to contact you to assist in the investment of this funds left for me as inheritance over here since I cannot manage the funds alone on my own due to inexperience.
My father was also involved in contract deals with Mr. Akihiko Saito, a Japanese merchant, who worked for a Hart Security Ltd., and an oil contractor with ADNOC. They where awarded a contract by ADNOC for the supply of oil drilling equipment.
My late father and Mr. Akihiko Saito was awarded a contract amounting to (USD$120M) while they did receive a mobilization fee amounting to (USD$80M) as soon as the contract award was approved, they did executed the contract but during the final stage Mr. Akihiko Saito, ran into serious trouble with the militants in Iraq, which led to his brutal murder recently in Iraq and after his own death, I did ensured that the balance contract payment of (USD$39.9 M) was secured also accordingly. I have the original copies of all the contract documents and I will send them to you for perusal as soon as you confirm the receipt of this business letter.
SEE EXTRACT:
He was subsequently killed on the 28th of May 2005.

The wife of the late Mr. Akihiko Saito is not in good health and she has given me approval for the process I am about to take. She has guaranteed the process of securing the entire funds in a bank account and possibly offshore investment in our both interest. She does not want the brother of the late husband to be aware of the deal as all her husband´s assets are willed to her and her children. This is the primary reason why you have to keep this business confidential.
My own family members are presently resident in the Republic of South Africa as asylum seekers/refugees owing to the land reform crises in my country Zimbabwe, which led to the death of my own late father Mr. Boniface Themba. Consequently, we have decided to invest and re-settle outside the African continent due to geometric economic depression and constant increase
in crises, which usually leads to violation of human rights, devaluation of currencies, acute scarcity of food and other amenities. I hope you may have heard of the crises in Zimbabwe over the news.
I would like you to do the followings: -
1) To assist me in transferring this huge sum of money into your company's/private bank account for our investment(s) in your country.
2) To help in finding out the monetary policies including the taxable percentage(s) on the said money when transferred into your country.
3) To advise me on the profitable and reliable investment(s) opportunities in your country
You shall be extensively briefed on more information about this proposal, all the modalities are already put in place. You are due for 30% of the total money for your services whatsoever, while the reminder will be left for both Mr.Themba and Mr. Saito family future investment.
Please feel free to contact me back as quickly as possible for more clarifications.
Waiting for your immediate response.
Best Regards,
Mr. Jeffrey Themba
For the both families
