SOUTH AFRICA.

{IN EARNEST, EFFICIENT, STRONG AND RELIABLE BUSINESS TRANSACTION}

Dear Sir,

Do not be perplexed with this note, It;s all about soliciting your attention to
transfer the Sum of {Twenty six million, usa, dollars}, and {Six million, usd}
Will be transferred first, on a solid agreement and well done as agreed by both
parties the remaining sum (balance)of Twenty Million will be transferred
accordingly as well.

As an Auditor General (AG) an Equivalent of an American,Certified Public
Accountant {C.P.A} as well, a personal account officer to the Formal
(Diseased), I believe that we can do this business without any Hitch, if only
you will be trusted and then follow simple yielding Instructions for a sound
smooth success of this Divine mercy (business), as I already had a Dream, of
God's presence and endorsement of this business Transaction.

We have marshaled out a solid master plan/arrangements on how best to Actualize
this laudable objective, so we are not trying to experiment with a transaction
of this nature(MAGNITUDE), that will not/never ever come my way again in my
life time. Our fears now is if this money will be safe in your hand/custody
pending our phyiscal arrival for sharing, etc.

If we agree and never to disagree again, you will stand to get 30%, 5% for the
Orphanage, Poor/Less Privileged, 5% for local and International expenses
incurred by both parties on the course of transfer, while the balance of 60%
will be for me and my partner.

Note: The formal (diseased), died without Oral or writing"WILL" and without
any "HIRE",so the formal as a foreigner,because he is a foreigner, this fund
can not be released or paid to an Indigene here, IT MUST BE A FOREIGNER WITH
VALID INTERNATIONAL PASS-PORT. So based on this, that is the most reason why
you are contacted in regards, as you know INHERITANCE is not a crime all over
the world, but will be crime only when you did not follow the Rules, Law sand
Procedures of International Inheritance by making triple sure to secureing all
the necessary transaction documents to back up the said Inheritance, or other
wise.

I got your contact from the Computer, You are the first person in note of this
transaction, on your positive response, I will furnish you with the FULL
TRANSACTION DETAILS.

Waiting succinctly your positive response URGENTLY.


With Warmest Regards,

Dr.J.Martins.
