Subject: PRIVATE TRANSACTION
Dear Friend,
My name is Mr. David Heesom, Assistant Manager of South African Financial
Service Board (FSB) The Board has an Interest Generation Account which is
designed to get customers invest their money with Profitable Companies in
South Africa through their Deposits with African Development Bank Group.Most
Expatriates who come into South Africa has also been encouraged by the Home
office to open account with us for this purpose.
The Deal I want to discuss with you is that I have here in my Branch 378
files which have been confirmed to belong to Foreigners who lived in South
Africa years back, opened account and gone back to their respective
countries without knowing about the Interests.I ,as assistant Manager is
under Obligation to transfer these funds to the home office account through
African Development Bank Group, since the customers are unreachable.This is
why I am sending this email to you.
I want you to partner with me, Let us use your contact / Bank details and
other information of yours to represent as the owner of two important files
that generated huge amount interest.I have concluded my search and confirmed
that the beneficiaries are not aware of the Interests since they have
withdrawn their Capital Investments and closed down their accounts with our
Board.
Be informed that they have withdrawn their money and closed these accounts
on the 4th of April 2007 from the information I have before me in their
respective files on an accummulated Interest of $7,500,000.00 and $5,200,
000.00 respectively and the total amount involved in these two accounts are
$12,700,000.00 United States Dollars. A 5% tax will be deducted according to
the Law and the rest will be transferred to your account.
Meanwhile, I have already submitted an approved end of the year report for
the year 2007 to my head office here Pretoria and they will never know of
this interest.I have since then,placed these amount on a Non-Investment
Account without a beneficiary with African Development Bank Group.
Upon your response,I will configure your name and address on our database as
holder of the Non-Investment Account.I will then guide you on how to apply
to the paying Bank for the Account Closure/ bank-to-bank remittance of these
funds to your designated bank account.
If you concur with this proposal,I intend for you to retain 40% of the funds
while 60% shall be for me.
Looking forward to your immediate response.
Thanks
David Heesom.
Assistant Manager
Financial Service Board (FSB)
