Subject: URGENT AND CONFIDENTIAL
STEPHEN ZUMA
THE CHIEF AUDITOR (F.N.B).
Tel:+ +27-73-171-3582
Dear Sir/Madam,
I know that this massage will come as a surprise to you since we dont know
each other, but for the purpose of introduction, I am Stephen Zuma, THE
CHIEF AUDITOR of First National Bank of South Africa (F.N.B).There is an
account opened in this bank in 1998 and since 2004, nobody has operated on
this account again. After going through some files in the records, I
discovered that if I do not remit this money urgently, it would be forfeited
for nothing.
The owner of the account is Mr. Smith Andreas, a foreigner and miner at
Kruger Gold Co., a geologist by profession and he died. Since 2003, no other
person knows about this account or anything concerning it. The account has
no other beneficiary and my investigation proved to me as well that his
company does not know anything about this account and the amount involved is
US$20,500,000.00 (twenty million, five hundred thousand united states
dollars).
I am only contacting you as a foreigner because the money cannot be approved
to a local bank here but can only be approved to any foreign account because
the money is in United States dollars and the former owner of the account is
Mr. Smith Andreas also a foreigner.
We will sign an agreement and be less assured that it is real and a genuine
business. Please reply urgently so that I can inform you of the next step to
take immediately. Send also your private phone numbers, email address
including details of the account to be used for the deposit. I want us to
meet face to face or sign a binding agreement to bind us together so that
you can receive this money into a foreign account or any account of your
choice where the funds will be safe. I will fly to your country for
withdrawal and sharing and other 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 later immediately if you are capable and willing to
handle such amount in strict confidence and trust according to my
instructions and advice for our mutual benefit because this opportunity may
never come again in my life. I need a truthful person in this business
because I dont want to make mistakes. I need your strong assurance and
trust.
With my position now in my office, I can transfer this money to any
foreigners reliable account that you can provide with assurance that this
money will be intact pending my physical arrival in your country for
sharing. I will destroy all documents of transaction immediately we receive
this money leaving no trace to any place. You can also come to discuss with
me face to face after which I will make this remittance in your presence and
two of us will fly to your country at least two days ahead of the money
going into your account. I will apply for annual leave to get visa
immediately I hear from you that you are ready to receive this fund in your
account. I will use my position and influence to effect legal approvals and
onward transfer of this money to your account with appropriate clearance
forms of the ministries and foreign exchange departments. At the conclusion
of this business, you will be given 25% of the total amount, 70% will be for
me while 5% will be for expenses that might have incurred during the process
of transferring. I look forward to your earliest reply through my e-mail
address:
Best regards
STEPHEN ZUMA.
