Dear Sir,
My name is John Garang (Jr), from the Republic of Sudan. I am writing you
with trust and Confidentiality. And I got your contact through the Internet.
It is my humble Decision to solicit for your understanding and cooperation
in this business that will benefit you and I.
At the mid term of the rebellion which is still on till date, my father (Dr.
John Garang DeMabior), thinking fast, decided to send my brother and I out
of the country (Sudan), with a total sum of (US$25M), twenty five million
United States Dollars only. This money was meant for the purchase of arms
and ammunitions for the rebel, but my father had to divert the funds as a
way of frustrating the on-going war that has claimed the lives of millions
of Sudanese. The bills were carefully defaced and moved as diplomatic
baggage. Please log on to these web sites:

On our arrival in Madrid, Spain, we discovered that as political asylum
seekers, we are not allowed to operate bank account (s). With the
instruction of my father, we deposited the baggage in a security company.
This was without declaring the contents to them. Unfortunately, because of
my father’s political influence, he was assassinated.
We therefore need your assistance by coming to Madrid to open a non-resident
bank account with any of the local banks. The non resident account will
enable the
onward telegraphic transfer of the funds to your nominated bank account. The
whole arrangement will be strictly under our supervision and the transaction
will be absolutely risked free. The transfer to your account would be
completed the same day.
We intend to share the money upon successful completion of the transaction
as follows:- 26% will be entitled to you for your assistance, while 70% will
be for us and 4% will be set aside to take care of expenses. Should this
meet your utmost consideration, kindly write back immediately to confirm
your earliest date of arrival.
The confidentiality of this transaction cannot be over emphasized as we
trust and believe that you will oblige us the security and attention it
demands.
Thank you very much.
John Garang (Jr)
