PERSONAL AND CONFIDENTAIL
DEAR SIR /MADAM,
I want to transfer to overseas the sum of Forty Five
Million United States Dollars U.S.$45,000,000.00) from
a country in Africa. I want to ask you to kindly look
for a reliable and Honest person who will be capable
and fit to provide Either an existing bank account or
to set up a new Bank account immediately to receive
this money, Though an empty bank account could serve
this purpose As long as you will remain honest to me
till the end Of this important business trusting in
you and Believing in God that you will never let me
down Either now or in time to come.
I am Joseph Johnson T.,the External Auditor of a ABSA Bank
SOUTH AFRICA. During the Course of our auditing, I
discovered a floating fund in an account opened in the
bank in 2002 and since 2003 nobody has operated on
this account again. After Going through some old files
in the records, I Discovered that the owner of the
account died without An Heir apparent to the throne,
hence the money is Floating and if I do not remit this
money out Urgently it will be forfeited for
nothing.Sen. PAUL HASSETT , his wife Sheila and
daughter Marcia died Friday in a small plane crash
near Eveleth, Minnesota, that also killed three staff
members and two pilots.Go to CNN NEWS;
http://archives.cnn.com/2002/ALLPOLITICS/10/25/plane.crash.minn/
The owner of this account who is Sen. PAUL HASSETT ,
A foreigner and senator died, since 2002,until now no
other person(s) knows about this Account or could give
any documentary evidence Concerning this account. As
such this account has no Other beneficiary and my
investigation proved to me as Well that Sen. PAUL HASSETT,
until his death was the Manager Oriental
Gold Company, in CONGO.However, if you are interested
in this business we will start the first money
transfer with NINE Million U.S. Dollars
(U.S.$9,000,000.00) upon Successful transaction

re-apply for the payment of the Remaining amount to
your account.
While the total amount involved is forty Five million
United States dollar (U.S.$45,000,000.00) only. I
would want us to make a first transfer of NINE Million
United States Dollar. (U.S.$9,000,000.00) from this
money into a safe foreigner's account abroad before
the rest.I am only Contacting you as a foreigner
because this money can Not be approved to a local
account, without valid International foreign
Agreement, but could only be Approved to any foreigner
with valid international Credentials: passport or
drivers license and foreign Account because this sum
is in U.S. dollars and The former owner of the account
Sen. PAUL HASSETT , is a Foreigner too, thus the money
could only be approved Into a foreign account.
However, knowing all this, we will reach a binding
Agreement in these regards. As a matter of urgency, I
will inform you the next Step to take, while you send
your private telephone And fax number including the

bind us Together before transferring the money to any

up with the instructions of a key bank official who is
deeply Involved with me in this business.

me down.With my influence and the position in the bank
we can transfer this money to any foreigner's Reliable
