RE: TRANSFER OF US$26,000.000.00
(TWENTY SIX MILLION UNITED STATES DOLLARS ONLY)
I am the personal account officer to the great late INDUSTRIALIST who had an
account in one of the top banks here in South Africa.Forgive my contact
because this letter comes to you as a surprise, as you don't know of it's
coming before. My contact is for you to please assist to transfer
US$26,000.000.00 ( Twenty Six million United States dollars only) in
tranches from a Prime Bank here in South Africa to any oversea's
account(s).The account was opened in 1998 and he died in 2003 without a
written or oral WILL and since 2003 nobody had operated the account. The
account is dormant and the funds floating.If I do not remit this money out
urgently it will be forfeited to the bank. Firstly, I must solicit your
strictest confidence in this transaction because of my official position and
nature of the deal. The business can be concluded in 10 (ten) banking days
.I am sure and have confidence of your ability and reliability to prosecute
a transaction of this great magnitude.The account holder was a foreigner and
no other person knows about this account or anything concerning it, the
account has no other beneficiary and until his death he was the accountant
of the company.
My investigation through the National immigration department proved to me as
well that he was single as at the time of his entry into the Republic of
South Africa. The credit balance in this account is USD$26 Million ( Twenty
Six Million United States Dollars only). Your assistance as a foreigner is
necessary because the management of the bank will welcome any foreigner who
has correct information on this account which I will disclose to you if you
are interested to do this business with me.There is no risk in this business
if you follow my instructions. Given my position and my personal rapport
with the manager of the bank, the funds can be transferred to any account(s)
you nominate .I need an assurance from you that this money will be intact
pending my arrival to your bank for disbursements. We will start with the
first swift wire-transfer of US$6 million( Six million United States only)
Upon successful transfer of the first tranch without any disappointment from
your side, you shall apply for the outstanding sum of US $20 Million to the
same or other account(s).Armed with correct information as a foreigner and
appropriate documentations as we shall arrange I will use my position to
secure a prompt conclusion to the transaction. Your duty is to send me the
banking coordinates for the transfer while maintaining the required
confidentiality . At the conclusion of the transfer you will receive 35%, 5%
will be for any expenses both parties incurred in the process of this
business and 60% of the funds will be for me. Upon your strong assurance of
your full cooperations and receipt of your account details then I will start
the process of the funds transfer to your account without further delay ok.
I look forward to hear from you soonest.
May God bless you.
Sincerely,
Mr. Everist Diko.
