Dear Sir/Madam,
I am Mr.Joan kahnyile, a native of Cape Town in South Africa and I am a
Director of Project Implementation with the South Africa Department of
Mining & Natural Resources. I am presently in Brussels -Belgium. First and
foremost, I apologize using this medium to reach you for a
transaction/business of this magnitude, but this is due to confidentiality
and prompt access reposed on this medium. Be informed that a member of the
South Africa Export Promotion Council (SEPC) who was at the Government
delegation to your country during a trade exhibition gave your enviable
credentials/particulars to me. I have decided to seek a confidential
co-operation with you in the execution of the deal described Hereunder for
the benefit of all parties and hope you will keep it as a top secret because
of the nature of this transaction.
Within the Department of Mining & Natural Resources where I work as a
Director and with the cooperation of four other top officials, we have in
our possession as overdue payment bills totaling Fourteen Million, Two
Hundred Thousand U. S. Dollars ($14,200,000.) which we want to transfer
abroad with the assistance and cooperation 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
circumstances, as the South Africa Civil Service Code of Conduct does not
allow us to operate offshore account hence your importance in the whole
transaction.
This amount $14.2m represents the balance of the total contract value
executed on behalf of my Department by a foreign contracting firm, which we
the officials over-invoiced deliberately. Though the actual contract cost
have been paid to the original contractor, leaving the balance in the Tune
of the said amount which we have in principles gotten approval to remit by
Key tested Telegraphic Transfer (K.T.T) to any foreign bank account you will
provide by filing in an application through the Justice Ministry here in
South Africa for the transfer of rights and privileges of the former
contractor to you.
I have the authority of my partners involved to propose that should you be
willing to assist us in the transaction, your share of the sum will be 30%
of the $14.2 million, 60% for us and 10% for taxation and miscellaneous
expenses. The business itself is 100% safe, on your part provided you treat
it with utmost secrecy and confidentiality. 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 you will not disappoint me.
Endeavor to contact me immediately through my personal Email written above.
whether or not you are interested in this deal. 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 partners and myself are in a 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 and please remember to treat this
matter as very confidential matter, because we will not comprehend with any
form of exposure as we are still in active Government Service and remember
once again that time is of the essence in this business.
I wait in anticipation of your fullest co-operation.
Yours faithfully,
JOANSTRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL & URGENT.
