ATTENTION:
THE PRESIDENT/CEO
Sir.
My proposal to you is in good fate to embark on this business blieving
that you will never let me down at the end of it all. Hold your peace I
know that this proposal upsets you with your good reasons the global upsurge
of the fraudlent act but inspite of this my proposal is from a genuine source
and could be verifiable.
I am Mr. Cedric Mukora Professional Accountant and my position is the Chief
Auditor American {equivalent} of { C.P.A} Certified Public Accountant. I
have been in the field for over 18years and I am 54years old married with
5 children 2 girls and 3 boys I am also from a Christian home and by the
Nature of our tradition and being the first born of my Father, I will occupy
my Father's traditional Throne chair after he passes on, and being the traditional
Chief of our community and as the heir apparent to the Royal Throne chair
I can never, never do anything, that will tarnish your image or the image
of the Great Cesthwayo family, the birth place and traditional home of Chaka
the Zulu the legend, well you can understand more about our family in a
book called Africa who is who or from the book called the makers of modern
Africa.
However I am not doing this business because of the large amount that is
involved but rather because it's safe and very safe for both of us, I will
be very happy to welcome you in my Father's Royal palace when once you touch
your feet in the soil of South Africa and after the transfer from here,
you and me will go together to your country You should not entertain any
fear for any reason because I will not do anything that will hurt your feelings
and I wouldn't like you to do anything that will hurt my feelings too, rather
the success of this business will benefit both families from generation
to generation as long as you follow my instructions.
I know that you may be wondering why I shuold embark on this business, I
would like to prove to you that I am a decent personality but this business
emanated when Late Dr.Ravindra F.Shah crashed with the wife until his death
he was the Manager of RAVINDRA H COY [pty] S.A. He held this account with
a prime bank, ............ here in johannesburg Sout Africa. I worked with
him as his account officer and auditor and as well his personal confidant
of the deceased in the bank before his death in 2003.
Our bank's public investigation team have endeavored to acquire useful informations
of the Late Dr.Ravindra F.Shah's NEX OF KIN or a written WILL withing the
specified time failed "in other words, no trace to his beneficiary",a certified
copy of the power of attorney from the bank Attorney empowerment deed authorising
those individual stakeholders to act on behalf of bank stated that if any
of the stakeholders finds relevant informations of the deceased regards
to his beneficiary the money 36,000,000 (Thirty Six Million USD) will be
transfered to the person(beneficiary) if certified ok.
This promted my guest to contact you meanwhile you can visit the site bellow

I really have no bad intention for you becaus I do not know you before my
secretary only got your contact from the internet and I am sure she doesn't
know you before being that I told her to get me a foreigner's e-mail contact
address because the original operator of the account is a foreigner and
this money can only be approved into a foreign beneficiaries account only,
frankly speaking from the bottom of my heart my fear now is the security
of this money in your custody once transferred into your account because
I don't know you before nor your capability and facilities to handle this
large amount.
What is your age and what you are doing for a living? I really want to know
more of you and I will want you to keep this business very confidential
at all times and also to be maintaining constant communications with me
knowing that this business should take precedence over any other business
for the mean time.
It's urgent you get in touch so that I can brief you regarding the foreign
payment procedures. After the processing of all Foreign Payment documents,
and when the money is ready to be paid into your account, after the final
approval in your favor by the bank you will be required to come in person
or go to Foreign Payment Office to sign the Foreign Payment vouchers preceding
telegraphic transfer (TT) to your account or you can appoint a Lawyer here
to represent you and sign on your behalf under special arrangement. At the
Foreign Payment Office you will be required to fill the payment Order chart
specifying schedule of payments to beneficiaries account.
Please it is important to develop a mutual and cordial relationship btween
us,do not tell the bank yet about the money until we finish the legal documentations,you
will give me 75% after the sucessful transfer of the mnoey into your account
and 25% your share for your contributions thank you.
Regards,
Mr.Cedric Mukor
