NEDBANK PRIVATE BANKING
Tel: 27-83-953-3564
Email:(davideze002@hotmail.com)
I am MR.DAVID EZE, the Chief Auditor of the NedBank of South Africa
(Ned Bank). I got your contact address from the Trade and Exhibition
Centre here in Johannesburg and you are the only person that I have
contacted in this business with believe that you will not let me down and
we
will work together to develop trust and confidence in this business.
After going through some old file in the records department, I
discover that there is an account opened in 1980 belonging to the late Mr.
Jerome N. Snaga a foreigner and a miner at Kruger Gold Company a geologis t
by profession and since 1990 nobody has operated the account following
Mr. Snagas death in 1990. Since then, no other person knows about
this account, and the amount involved is US$82 million (EIGHTY TWO MILLION
UNITED STATE DOLLARS).
I would like to first transfer US$12 million into your overseas account
as a foreigner because Mr. Snaga was a foreigner then later I will
transfer the remaining US$70 million before joining you in person for
disbursement and investment opportunity which you will be an asset to it.
I am only contacting you because of your foreign status as this money
cannot be approved to a local bank here, but can be approved to any
foreign account because the money is in a foreign currency (US dollars) and
former owner of the account, Mr. Snaga was a foreigner.
Because of the need to involve a foreign account, I need your f ull
co-operation to make this work fine because the management is ready to
approve the payment to whoever has the correct information to this account,
of which I will give you later, if you are able to handle such amount
in strict confidence and trust according to my instruction and advice
for our mutual benefits because this opportunity will never come again
in our lives. I need a trustworthy person in this business because I
don't want to make a mistake and I need your strong assurance, trust and
reliability.
With my position now in the office and the influence of the top bank
director of the South African Reserve Bank, I will make sure that this
money is transferred into any reliable account, which you can provide
with the assurance that this money will be intact pending my physical
arrival in your country for my sharing. Your physical prese nce is also
welcomed in South Africa in which the transfer will be done in your
presence. I will destroy all the documents of the transaction immediately
you
receive this money, leaving no trace in any place.
I have the tendency to invest my own share of the money in your country
in expectation to a sound management and a good capital returns
according to your advice. Rest assured you stand no risk of any kind as
the
fund belong to us now, therefore after the eventual stage of the
transfer of this fund, I am offering you 30% of the total fund, 65% will be
for my investment while 5% will be set aside for expenses that might be
incurred during the cause of this transaction.
I strongly believe that associating with you to embark on this fund
transfer and other business ventures will derive a huge success there
after. I will use my position to ef fect approvals for onward transfer of
this money to your account with appropriate clearance form from the
ministries and foreign exchange department. I am counting on your sense of
confidentiality, as it is my desire that you keep this to yourself and
endeavor to furnish me with your private telephone (mobile preferably),
fax numbers and your bank details where you would like the first
payment to be transferred into for a quickly arrangements and
approval.Kindly
contact me on my private email address:(davideze002@hotmail.com)
Looking forward to your urgent respond.
Yours truly,
DAVID EZE.
