RE TRANSFER OF ($10,000.000.00 USD}TEN MILLION DOLLARS
Dear Sir Richard Livock
We want to transfer to overseas account
($10,000.000.00 USD) Ten million United States
Dollars) from a Prime Bank here in South Africa,
want to ask you, If you are not capable to quietly
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 a/c 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 in God that you will
never let me down either now or in future.
I am the Auditor General of one of the prime banks
here in South Africa, during the course of our
auditing,I discovered a floating fund in an account
opened in the bank in 1996 and since 1998 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/WILL] hence the money is floating and if I do not remit this money out
urgently it will be forfeited for nothing.
The owner of this account is PEDRO F. HASLER a foreigner, a great
industrialist and he died since 1998.
No other person knows about this account or any thing concerning it, the
account has no other beneficiary and my investigation proved to me as well
that until his death he was the manager GOLD ARK [pty]. SA. We will start
the first transfer with Four million [$4,000.000] upon successful
transaction without any disappoint from your side, we shall re-apply for the
payment of the remaining amount to your account.
The total amount involve is Ten million United States Dollars only
[$10,000.000.00]. I want to first transfer $4,000.000.00 [Four 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 only contacting you as a foreigner because this money can not be
approved to a local person here, without valid international foreign
passport, but can only be approved to any foreigner with valid international
passport or drivers license and foreign a/c because the money is in US
dollars and the former owner of the a/c is a foreigner too, and the money
can only be approved into a foreign a/c.
However, we will sign a binding agreement, to bind us
together when we meet face to face after the first
transfer of $4 Million before transferring the second
part of $6 Million. I am revealing this to you with
believe in God that you will never let me down in this
business, you are the first and the only person that I
am contacting for this business, so please reply urgently so that I will
inform you the next step to take urgently. Send also the full details of the
account to be used for the deposit.
I want us to meet face to face to build confidence and
to sign a binding agreement that will bind us together
immediately after the first transfer before we fly to
your country for withdrawal, sharing and investments.
I need your full co-operation to make this work fine
because the management is ready to approve this payment to any foreigner who
has correct information of this account, which I will give to you upon your
positive response and once I am convinced that you are capable and will meet
up with instruction of a key bank official who is deeply involved with me
in this business.
I need your strong assurance that you will never, never let me down. With my
influence and my position in the bank the bank official can transfer this
money to any foreigner's reliable account that 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 call me for heart to heart discussion through my private e-mail address
which I secured for the security and safety of this business as you know
that this business is
confidential.
I will use my position and influence to obtain all legal approvals for
onward transfer of this money to your account with appropriate clearance
from the relevant ministries and foreign exchange departments. 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 reply through my email address.
Thanks and God bless
Yours truly,
DAVID MICKY
