BUSINESS PROPOSAL/PARTNERSHIP
Dear Sir/Ma,
I received very encouraging information about you and how trustworthy you are. I am delighted with such
useful information. I am interested in partnership investment programmed with your self/corporation.
First permit me to introduce myself as Dr .Micheal Bush of the native of Cape Town in South-Africa. Presently I am the Senior Chief Executive Accountant with the South-Africa Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources.
Within the Department of Energy where I work as an Executive Senior Accountant and with the Co-operation of four other top officials, we have in our possession as over due payment bills totaling USD $40 Million (40M), which we want to transfer abroad with the assistance and co-operation of a foreign Company/Individual to receive the said fund on our behalf or a reliable foreign Non-company account to receive such funds. More so, we are handicapped in the circumstance, as the South Africa civil Service Code of conduct does not allow us to operate off-shore account, and our earning is less than $2000 rand equivalent of (our local currency) and the strict stipulations of the Bureau of conduct guidelines and regulations for public/civil servants hence you are important in the whole transaction. This amount USD$40M represents the balance of the contract value executed on behalf of my department by a Foreign Contracting Firm, which we the official over-invoiced deliberately. A contract was awarded to Portuguese
Firm worth hundreds Millions of Dollars. In the execution of this project the Portuguese Firm discovered a colossal amount of Limestone in the two sites. We collaborated with the Firm in a mutual agreement as regard the proceeds of which we have now received our share of $68million USD.
Although the actual Contract cost have been paid to the original contractor. We have in principles gotten
approval to remit to any Foreign Bank account you will provide, and cannot introduce or circulate this amount into the South-Africa banking system considering our provisional duties as Civil servant, by filing in an application through the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources here in South Africa, for the transfer of rights and privileges of the Former contractor to you.
The above situation prompted my decision to solicit your co-operation to take delivery of the funds into
your custody for our proposed investment as i have the authority of my partners will be adequately
compensated you with 20% (8,000,000.00). Also your area of specialization is not a hindrance to
the successful execution of this transaction. I have reposed my confidence in you and hope that will not
disappoint me.
If you are not, it will enable me scout for another foreign partner to carry out this deal. I want to
assure you that my partner and I are in position to make the payment of this claim possible, provided you can give us a very strong assurance and guarantee that our share will be secured.
Please remember to treat this matter very confidential, discretion no matter what your decision
maybe, because we will not comprehend with any form of exposure, as we are still in active Government
service. Once again, remember that time is of great essence in this transaction; we have arranged all the
necessary procedures in ensuring a smooth process for funds to get to you.
I will also appreciate you contact me once you receive this Mail via my E-Mail staceybush@mac.com account to enable me give you more details on my procedure of getting the funds across to you hitch free. Positive response should
accompanied with telephone and fax numbers so I can reach you immediately also.
I wait in anticipation of your fullest co-operation and remain,
