Greetings,
We want to transfer to overseas ($ 126,000.000.00 USD) One hundred and
twenty six million United States Dollars) from Co-operative Bank Of Africa,
I want to ask you to quietly look for a reliable and honest person who will
be Capable and fit to provide either an existing bank account or to set up a
new Bank a/c immediately to receive this money, even an empty a/c can serve
to receive this money, as long as you will remain honest to me till the end
for this important business trusting in you and believing in God that you
will never let me down either now or in future.
I am Mr Jeffrey Muha, the Auditor General of Co-operative Bank Of Africa ,
during the course of our
auditing I discovered a floating fund in an account opened in the bank in
1993 and since 1997 nobody has operated on this account again, after going
through some old files in the records I discovered that the owner of the
account died without a [heir] hence the money is floating and if I do not
remit this money out urgently it will be forfeited for nothing. the owner of
this account is Mr. Daniel L. Dawson, a foreigner, and an industrialist, and
he died, since 1997. and no other person knows about this account or any
thing concerning it, the account has no other beneficiary and my
investigation proved to me as well that Mr. Daniel L. Dawson until his death
was the manager Diamond Safari [pty]. SA.
We will start the first transfer with twenty six million [$26,000.000] upon
successful transaction
without any disappoint from your side, we shall re-apply for the payment of
the remaining rest amount to your account, The amount involved is (USD 126M)
One hundred and twenty six million United States Dollars, only I want to
first transfer $26,000.000 [twenty six million United States Dollar from
this money into a safe foreigners account abroad before the rest, but I
don't know any foreigner, I am only contacting you as a foreigner because
this money can not be approved to a local person here, without valid
international foreign passport, but can only be approved to any
foreigner with valid international passport or drivers license and foreign
a/c because the money is in us dollars and the former owner of the a/c Mr.
Daniel L. Dawson is a foreigner too, [and the money can only be approved
into a foreign a/c.
However, we will sign a binding agreement, to bind us together I got your
contact address from the Girl who operates computer, I am revealing this to
you with believe in God that you will never let me down in this business,
you are the first and the only person that I am contacting for this
business, so please reply urgently so that I will inform you the next step
to take urgently.
Send also your private telephone and fax number including the full details
of the account to be used for the deposit.
I want us to meet face to face to build confidence and to sign a binding
agreement that will bind us
together before transferring the money to any account of your choice where
the fund will be safe. Before we fly to your country for withdrawal, sharing
and 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, upon your positive
response and once I am convinced that you are capable and will meet up with
instruction of a key bank official who is deeply involved with me in this
business.
I need your strong assurance that you will never, never let me down.
With my influence and the position of the bank official we can transfer this
money to any foreigner's
reliable account which you can provide with assurance that this money will
be intact pending our physical arrival in your country for sharing.
The bank official will destroy all documents of transaction immediately we
receive this money leaving
no trace to any place and to build confidence you can come immediately to
discuss with me face to face after which I will make this remittance in your
presence and three of us will fly to your country at least two days ahead of
the money going into the account.
I will apply for annual leave to get visa immediately I hear from you that
you are ready to act and receive this fund in your account. I will use my
position and influence to obtain all legal approvals for onward transfer of
this money to your account with appropriate clearance from the relevant
ministries and foreign exchange departments.
At the conclusion of this business, you will be given 35% of the total
amount, 60% will be for me, and while 5% will be for expenses both parties
might have incurred during the process of transferring. I will send you all
my phone and fax numbers as soon as you indicate interest in this
