{Re: Transfer of $26,000,000.00)
(Twenty Six Million USD)
I am Mr.Fevour Benjamin,the Auditor General of prime banks here South
Africa, during the course of our auditing,I Discovered a floating fund in an
account opened in the bank in 1990 and since 1993 nobody has operated on
this account again.Afterg oing through some old files in the records I
discovered that the owner of the account died without a [heir] 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 Mr.Loannard Howell,a
foreigner,a miner and an industrialist.He made millions of dollars before he
died misteriously .Since 1993 no other person knows about this account or
any thing concerning it.My investigation proved to me that the account has
no other beneficiary and that Mr.Loannard Howell until his death was the
manager Howell Coy.(pty).SA. We will start the first transfer with six
million dollars [$6,000,000.00] upon successful transaction without any
disappoint from your side, we shall re-apply for the payment of the
remaining amount to your account.
The amount involved is (USD $26M) Twenty six million United States Dollars
only.I want to first transfer $6,000.000 [Six 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 revealing this to you with believe in God that
you will never let me down in this business.Also send your private telephone
number and fax number including the full details of the account to be used
for the deposit. I need your strong assurance that you will never let me
down in this business proposition.With my influence and the position of a
bank official whom is working in our favour we can transfer this money to
any foreigner's reliable account which 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 come immediately to discuss with me face to face after
which Iwill make this remittance in your presence and three of us will fly
to your country at least two days ahead of the money going into the account.
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 am waiting for your reply.
Best Regards,
Mr.Fevour Benjamin.
