My Dear
I am Mr Aser Paul Nkuna , and I work with the First Rand Bank in Johannesburg in
the Republic of South Africa. I write you this proposal in good faith; I am 44
years old and married with lovely children. I am a man of peace, and have
sincere respect for human feelings and opinions.
In February 2002, a contractor with the South African Mining Corporation Mrs.
Sibile Zanner, made a fixed deposit with our bank for 12 months. The deposit was
for the sum of USD 30 million.Upon maturity, we sent a routine notification to
her Physical address but got no reply. After enquiries we discovered that Mrs.
Sibile Zanner had died on Thursday, 26th September 2002. Please refer to this
website for details of her unfortunate
<http://iafrica.com/news/sa/56320.htm>
Investigation, revealed that she died without making WRITTEN OR ORAL ( will )
and Testament. As a result of this the money is still sitting in the Bank and
the interest is being rolled over with the principal sum at the end of each
year.
According to the Laws of Republic of South Africa, at the expiration of 5 years,
the money will be paid over to the South African Government Treasury if nobody
makes a claim for it.
I solicit your assistance to stand in as the next of kin to the deceased
depositor to enable us transfer the said amount into your safe account for
unward investment.You can either provide us with an existing account or to set
up a new Bank account immediately to receive this money, even an empty a/c can
serve to receive this money,as long as you will remain honest to me till the end
for this important business trusting in you and believing that you will never
let me down either now or in future.
We will start the first transfer with Fifteen million [$15,000.000.00]. Upon
successful transfer without any disappointment from your side, we shall re-apply
for the paymentof the remaining balance of $15 million to your account.I am only
contacting you as a foreigner because this money can not be approved to a local
person here, but can only be approved to any foreigner who has the correct
information of the account which I will provide to you.At the conclussion of the
transfer you willtake 35% for you, 5% for any expenses incurred in this business
and the remaining 60% for me, As soon as I hear from you we will then start to
