Hello Dear,
Warmest greetings to you. Do not be perplexed with this note, I want to solicit
your attention to transfer to overseas the sum of Twenty Six Million United
States Dollars (26,000,000.00 USD) from a Bank in Africa.
I am Mr. Morgan Phillips, the Auditor General of prime banks here South Africa,
during the course of our auditing, I discovered a floating fund in an account
opened in the bank in 1990 and since 1993 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 a [heir] hence the money is floating and if I do not
remit this money out urgently it will be forfeited for nothing to the bad heads,
the powers that be in government.
The owner of this account was a foreigner, a miner and an industrialist. He made
millions of dollars before he died misteriously. Since 1993 no other person
knows about this account or any thing concerning it. My investigation proved to
me that the account has no other beneficiary.
We will start the first transfer with six million dollars [$6,000,000.00] upon
successful transaction without any disappoint from your side, we shall re-apply
for the payment of the remaining amount to your account.
The amount involved is (USD 26M) Twenty sixmillion United States Dollars only. I
want to first transfer $6,000.000 [Six million United States Dollar] from this
money into a safe foreigners account abroad before the rest, but I don't know
any foreigner.
I am revealing this to you with believe in God that you will never let me down
in this business.
Also send your private telephone number and fax number including the full
details of the account to be used for the deposit.
I need your strong assurance that you will never let me down in this business
proposition. With my influence and the position of a bank official whom is
working in our favour we can transfer this money to any foreigner's reliable
account which you can provide with assurance that this money will be intact
pending our physical arrival in your country for sharing.
The bank official will destroy all documents of transaction immediately we
receive this money leaving no trace to any place and to build confidence you can
come immediately to discuss with me face to face after which I will make this
remittance in your presence and three of us will fly to your country at least
two days ahead of the money going into the account.
At the conclusion of this business, you will be given 35% of the total amount,
60% will be for me, while 5% will be for expenses both parties might have
incurred during the process of transferring.
I look forward to your earliest replythrough my Private Email Box:
Auditor@Morgan.La.
Best Regards,
Mr. Morgan Phillips.
