Dear Sir/Madam,
First of all let me introduce myself to you.My name is Mr.Phraim Davis,a
consulting auditor of prime banks here in South Africa.
Without wasting much time,let me go straight to the point.On June 6,1999,there
was an American Mining consultant/contractor with the South African Mining
corporation, Mr.Gregory A.Williams who made a numbered time (fixed)deposit
with my bank here in South Africa for twelve calendar months,value US $14,200,000.00
an account. On maturity, The bank sent a routine notification to his forwarding
address but got no reply from him.
After a month,The bank sent another reminder and finally his contract employers,the
South African Mining corporation wrote to inform the bank that Mr.Gregory
A.Williams died from an automobile accident.And he died without MAKING A
WILL attached to the account.More so, all attempts by the American Embassy
to trace his next of kin was fruitless.
I therefore, made further investigation and discovered that Mr.Gregory A.Williams
in fact was an immigrant from Jamaica and only recently obtained American
citizenship.He did not declare any kin or relations in all his official
documents, including his Bank deposit paper work. This money total US $14,200,000.00
is still sitting in the bank as dormant Account.
No one will ever come forward to claim it, and according to South African
banking policy,after5years,the money will revert to the ownership of the
South African Government if the account owner is certified dead. This is
the situation, and my proposal is that I am looking for a foreigner who
will stand as the next of kin to Mr.Gregory A.Williams and a Bank Account
abroad which will then facilitate the transfer of this money to the beneficiary/next
of kin.
This is simple, all you have to do is to immediately send me bank account
information where you know that the Fund will be safe when the transfer
take place for me to arrange the proper money transfer paperwork. An empty
account can serve provided the account is valid.This money total USD ($14.2M)
will then be paid into the Account for us to share in the ratio of 60% for
me, 35% for you and 5% for expenses that might come up during transfer process.
There is no risk at all, and all the paper work for this transaction will
be done by me using my position and connection in the banks in South Africa.
Please observe the utmost confidentiality, and rest assured that this transaction
would be most profitable for both of us because I shall require your assistance
to invest my share in your country.
I look forward to your earliest reply through my email address. Thanks and
god bless you and your family and bless me too.Please contact me with this
email(phraim@myway.com)I waiting for your reply ok.
Have a nice day.
Yours truly.
Mr.Phraim Davis.
