Subject: URGENT
Dear VICTIMNAME,
Many thanks for your mail dated the 15th day of July,
2006.
As regards to your question, I got your Contact from our Chamber of Commerce. And other questions concerning the genuiness of myself, my profile
answers the rest of the questions.
You can confirm if I am Susan Shabangu or not by visting the website which appeared on the link of my first mail to you with the Caption or Subject, INVESTMENT.
I inherited the said fund from my late husband who died in Trinidad and Tobago through a ghastly motor accident.
The money was made through Contract deals which my late husband did with the Government of South Africa, though mostly influenced by me as a serving Minister who is very close to the corridor of Power.
This fund is deposited with a Security Company and will be made available to you through a Diplomatic Channel in London by responding to this mail.
But having said this, confirm to me if your account can carry the said amount of money.
Note, that, I have concluded arrangement with the Management of Virgin Atlantic Air Line to hired me one of their Private Jets to help me carry the money, the Diplomat and one official of the Security Company who will hand over the Fund to you cash after signing some documents.
My dear son, this fund is the live wire of my family and therefore would not want you to invest it wisely, though other details will be discuss when I visit you in Jamaica with my three Children.
Also remenber, that as a serving Minister or a Civil servant I am not suppose to operate foreign account and will not want anybody to be aware of this deal/transaction accept you. The confidentiality of this business shall been seen and treated as PARAMOUNT.
As you have indicated your interest in this business, forward to me your contact address, phone and fax Numbers for easy communication.
My son Eric, will be the one to be calling you whenever there is need for that. Please don't bother to call me because of security reason.
You must have read in one of the dailies in your Country about the sack of my former Vice President, Mr Zuma, his business discussion was tapped by the Secrity Operatives who now presented the information to the Government who sacked him after he was found guilty by a Competent Court of Justice for illegal and fraudlent activities. So base on this, I would not want you to call me, rather send me a mail.
This business is expected to be concluded within fourteen working days and 20% will be given to you.
Treat this as important and urgent.
Looking forward to your urgent response.
Regards,
Susan Shabangu.
