Subject: FINANCIAL TRANSACTION
Mr . RONNIE KAUNDA
ATTENTION. ronniekaunda@zambia.co.zm
My name is a Zambian citizen, I got your contact through the Zambian Chamber of Commerce and Industry through a web based directory while searching for a foreign partner to execute this project together. I am the close associate to an undisclosed minister (for the purpose of confidentiality for now) in the present political dispensation of my country.
Due to the trust and confidence reposed on me, he has mandated that i seek out a "Reliable and Trustworthy" foreign partner who will help receive funds, the funds in question is in safe deposit totalling US$25m (Twenty Five Million United States American Dollars). This amount has to be lodged into a personal or company bank account for commitment into any legitimate investment venture for a pre-defined time frame. We cannot afford to have a direct relationship with any major investment for now by virtue of our position in government. We definitely do not want to raise any eyebrows in the ministry as an internal probe might jeopardize his office.
The fund came about by series of over invoiced contracts and gratification by contractors who have had their contract entitlement covered by the government. The fund is in safe deposit and free from any speculation.
However I have managed to push the money abroad through diplomatic coverages in two trunk boxes (consignment packages) through a security & courier company here in Zambia and it is presently in the custody of an affiliate/sister security company in Europe. Please, be rest assured this business relationship will bring a long term and lasting relationship between us, before proceeding with this, terms of agreement will be drawn stating clearly each level of involvement and commitment in this program. I have the necessary documents backing the deposit to facilitate claim from the deposit house.
The modality for the disbursement of funds is as follows:
75% of the total to us
20% to you
5% to cover all charges and taxes that might be applicable in the course of closing the transaction.
All logistics are in place and all modalities worked out for a smooth actualisation of the transaction within the next few working days of commencement. For further details as to the workability of this transaction, please reach me as soon as possible on
Thank you and God bless as I await your urgent response.
Yours Sincerely,
Mr. RONNIE KAUNDA
