Subject: Greetings From Mr. Robert Holley.
Greetings From Mr. Robert Holley. I am Writing to seek your consent in a private and confidential matter regarding some funds unaccounted for in my bank here in South Africa during the last 2006 business year. I need assistance from a trust worthy and reliable person whom I will fill in as the beneficiary. Your major role would be to provide either an existing bank account or to set up a new Bank account immediately to receive this money and get 30% of the total funds as commission. There are practically no risks involved, the transaction will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect us from any breach of the law, it will be simply a bank-to-bank transfer, and all I need from you is to stand claim as the beneficiary of these funds who made the deposit with my branch so that my head office can order the transfer to your designated bank account under few working days. I am Mr. Robert Holley,the regional manager of AFRICA DEVELOPMENT BANK (AFDB),and I
write you this proposal in good faith; I am married with five lovely kids. It is my duty as the regional manager to send in financial report to my head office in the capital city at the end of each business year. On the course of the last year 2005 business report, I discovered the sum of Twenty six million eight hundred and fifty thousand united state dollars 26,850,000.00 belonging to a foreigner Industrialist Kenneth Gardner who died without a beneficiary, in my branch in which I am the manager. Our head office is not aware of and will never be aware of it. I have placed this funds on what we call escrow call account with no beneficiary and as an officer of this bank I cannot be directly connected to this money, hence i contacted you. If you accept to work with me I will appreciate it very much as you are the first and the only person I am contacting for this transaction. We will start the first transfer with sixteen million dollars, upon successful transaction with out
any disappointment from your side, we shall re-apply for the payment of the remaining amount to your account. At this juncture i wish to tell you what prompted me to package this deal. I have a 9-year old daughter who has leukemia, disease of the blood, and she needs a bone marrow transplant or she will die. I want this transplanting to be done in any good children hospital in your country if there is one. Once this fund is transferred into your account, I shall resign from my job and bring my family to start a new life in your country. I would be grateful if you would help me in looking out for good investment opportunities with my own part of the money in a profitable business. I have worked for this bank for the past 15 years yet I have nothing to show for it, I really need your assistance to secure this fund as soon as possible. Send me Mail holleyxx4000@myway.com as soon as you receive this message if you think we can work together, so that we can go over the details.
Send also your Private Mobile and fax numbers for a more proper elaboration. Truly yoursMr. Robert Holley.
