Dear Sir/Madam,
I am Dr.Thabo Ngema Principal treasury officer with First National Bank Of South Africa (FNBSAI) I got your email contact, in my search for a trusted partner, who will assist me with this confidential business proposal.
Mr. Adreas B Smith made a numbered time (Fixed) deposited for twelve calendar months, valued at US$(USD 33.86M) (Thirty three million eight hundred and
six thousand United States Dollars.) in my branch. Upon maturity, I sent a routine notification to his forwarding address but got no reply. After a month, we sent a reminder and finally we discovered from his contract employers, National Mining Corporation that Mr. Adreas B Smith died from an automobile accident. On further investigation, I found out that he did not leave a WILL and all attempts to trace his next of kin were fruitless. I therefore made further investigation and discovered that Mr.Andreas B Smith did not declare any next of kin in all his official documents, including his Bank Deposit paper work. This money is still sitting in the Bank .
According to the South African Law, at the expiration of 6{Six} years, the money will revert to the ownership of the South African Government if nobody applies to claim the funds. Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as a foreigner to stand in as the next of kin to Mr.Adreas B Smith so that this money will not be reverted by the government or been claim by some staffs in the bank.
This is simple;
1) I shall employ the services of an attorney for drafting and obtain the necessary documents and letter of Probate/administration in your favor for the transfer.
2) A bank account in any part of the world, which you provide, will then facilitate the transfer of this money to you as the beneficiary/next of kin of Mr.Adreas B Smith. The money will be paid into your account for us to share in the ratio of 65% for me and 30% for you then 5% will be set aside for any expenses that may occur during the transfer process. There is no risk at all as all the paperwork for this transaction will be bone by the attorney and my position as the Principal treasury officer guarantees the successful execution of this transaction. If you are interested, please reply immediately via my private Email: drngema-fnb@accountant.com, Mobile number:+27-83-2085249.Fax Number+27 +27-866905801, Please including your private telephone and fax number upon your response, I shall then provide you with more details and relevant documents that will help you understand.
Please observe utmost confidentiality, and rest assured that this transaction would be most profitable for both of us because I shall require your assistance to invest my share in your country.
Awaiting your urgent reply
Thanks and regards
Dr.Thabo Ngema
