In other to transfer out [US$138M] One Hundred And Thirty Eight Million Dollar from AMALGAMATED BANK OF SOUHT AFRICAN (ABSA) . I have the courage to look for a reliable and honest person whom will be capable for this important business believing that you will never let me down either now or in future.
I am MR. JamesNkosi,Auditor general of AMALGAMATED BANK OF SOUHT AFRICAN . [ABSA]. There is an account opened in this bank in 1980 and since late 1992 nobody has operated on this account again. After going through some old files in the records, I discovered that if I do not remit this money out urgently it would be forfeited for nothing. The owner of this account is MR. AERRON M. SNYDER, a
foreigner and mminer at kruger gold mine co. a geologist by profession and he died in car accident while going to work nearly the end of apartheid government since late 1992. No other person knows about this account or any thing concerning it, the account has no other beneficiary and my investigation proved to me that this company does not know anything about this account and the amount involved is [US$138M] ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY EIGHT MILLION UNITEDATATES DOLLARS.
I want to first transfer (US$38M) THIRTY EIGHT MILLION DOLLARS from this money into a safe foreigners account overseas before the rest, but I don;t know any foreigner with capability of handling the transaction. I am only contacting you as a foreigner because this money cannot be approved to a local bank here, but can only be pproved to any foreign account because the former account owner is a foreigner too.
I know that this message will come to you as a surprise as we don’t know ourselves before. We will sign an agreement, but be sure that it is real and a genuine opportunity with believe in God that you will never let me down in this business. So if you are interested and capable to handle this transaction reply me urgently so that I will inform you the next step to take immediately. While replying include your
private contact information’s, I need your strong assurance and trust with full co-operation to make this work fine because the management is ready to approve this payment with anybody with a Mcorrect and full information of this account which I will later give you immediately .
I want us to meet face to face or sign a binding greement to bind us together so that you can receive this money into a foreign account or any account of your choice where the fund will be safe. And I will fly to your country for withdrawal and sharing and other investments With my position now in the office I can transfer this money to any foreigner's reliable account, which you can provide with assurance that this money will be intact pending my physical arrival in your country for sharing.
You can also come to discuss with me face to face after which I will fly to your ountry at least two days ahead of the money going into the account. I will apply for annual leave to get visa immediately as soon as we agree and you are ready to act and
receive this fund in your account. I will use my position and influence to effect legal approval and onward transfer of this money to your account with appropriate clearance forms of the ministries and foreign departments. 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 of us might have incurred during the process of transferring.
I look forward your earliest reply.

James Nkosi
