My name is Mr Ruben Jackson and I work in the International
operation department in a Local Bank here in South Africa.
On a routine inspection I discovered a dormant domiciliary
account with a BAL. of $ 126,000.000.00 USD (One hundred and
Twenty Six million United States Dollars) on further
discreet investigation, I also discovered that the account
holder has long since passed away (dead) leaving no
beneficiary to the account 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.
Ahmed Tariq , a foreigner, and a sailor, and he died, since
1998. and no other person knows about this account or any
thing concerning it, the account has no other beneficiary
and my investigation proved to me as well that Ahmed Tariq
until his death was the manager Tariq Coy.(pty). SA.
We will start the first transfer with Twenty six million
[$26,000.000] upon successful transaction without any
disappoint from your side, we shall re-apply for the payment
of the remaining rest amount to your account.
The amount involved is (USD 126M) One hundred and Twenty Six
million United States Dollars, only I want to first transfer
$26,000.000 [Twenty 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 only contacting
you as a foreigner because this money can not be approved to
a local person here, without valid international foreign
passport, but can only be approved to any foreigner with
valid international passport or drivers license and foreign
a/c because the money is in us dollars and the former owner
of the a/c Mr. Ahmed Tariq is a foreigner too, [and the
money can only be pproved into a foreign a/c.
However, we will sign a binding agreement, to bind us
together I got your contact address from my secretary who
operates computer, I am revealing this to you with believe
in God that you will never let me down in this business, you
are the first and the only person that I am contacting for
this business, so please reply urgently so that I will
inform you the next step to take urgently. Send also your
private telephone and fax number including the full details
of the account to be used for the deposit.
I want us to build confidence and to sign a binding
agreement that will bind us together before transferring the
money to any account of your choice where the fund will be
safe. Before we fly to your country for withdrawal, sharing
and investments.
I need your full co-operation to make this work fine.
because the management is ready to approve this payment to
any foreigner who has correct information of this account,
which I will give to you, upon your positive response and
once I am convinced that you are capable and will meet up
with instruction of a key bank official who is deeply
involved with me in this business.
I need your strong assurance that you will never, never let
me down. With my influence and the position of the bank
official 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 I will make this emittance in your presence and
three of us will fly to your country at least two days ahead
of the money going into the account.
I will apply for annual leave to get visa immediately I hear
from you that you are ready to act and receive this fund in
your account. I will use my position and influence to obtain
all legal approvals for onward transfer of this money to
your account with appropriate clearance from the relevant
ministries and foreign exchange 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 parties might have incurred during the process
of transferring.
I look forward to hear from you soon .
