CONFIDENTIAL DOCUMENT:
DAER SIR/MADAM.......
I am Dr. DONAH KOEMAN. The chief auditor of ABSA bank South Africa. I got to
your contact address from your countrys Trade Journal. Youre impressive and
managerial records made me to solicit for your partnership in these regards.
After going through some old files in the records department, I discovered
that there is an account opened in this bank in 1982 and since 1992; no body
has operated on this account.
The owner of this account is late Mr. Jerome N. Snag, a foreigner and a
miner at the Anglo Gold Platinum ining Company in Mafikeng, as a geologist
by profession and he died since 1992.
Up till now, no other person knows about this account or anything concerning
it, this account has no other beneficiary and my investigation proved to me
as well that this company does not know anything about this account.
The amount involved is 32M US$ (THIRTY TWO MILLION UNITED STATES DOLLARS)
and I want to first transfer US$16M (SIXTEEN MILLION UNITED STATES DOLLARS)
from the money into a safe foreign account abroad before the rest, but Ive
not gotten a trusted foreigner.
I am only contacting you as a foreigner because this money cannot be
approved to a local bank here, but can be approved to any foreign account
because the money is in US dollars and the former owner of the account Mr.
Snag a was a foreigner and because of the need to involve a foreign account.
I need your full co-predation to make this work smoothly because the
management is ready to approve this payment to whoever that has correct
information to this account.
I shall give you all the informations concerning this very transaction
later, if you are able to handle such amount in strict confidence and trust
according to my instruction and advice for our mutual benefits because this
opportunity will never come again in my life.
I need your strong assurance reliability with my position now in the office;
I can transfer this money to any reliable account, which you can provide
with assurance that you are not goning to run away with this money when
eventually been transferred into your Bank account in your country pending
my physical arrival in your country for sharing of the fund according to our
percentages.
I shall destroy all documents of transaction immediately you recieve this
money in your country`s Bank account, leaving no trace of any. You can also
come to discuss with me face-to-face then the remittance will be made in the
presence of both of us.
Then we will fly to your country at least two days ahead before money gets
into your account,I have the tendency to invest my own share of the money in
your country in expectation to sound management and good capital returns
according to your advice.
Be assured that you stand no risk of any kind as the fund belongs to us now.
Therefore, after the eventual stage of the transfer of this fund,
I am offering you 25% of the total fund, 70% will be for me while 5% will be
set aside for expenses that might incur during the course of this
transaction.
You can call me on the above telephone numbers or write me to discuss on the
percentage if this did not go well with you.
I strongly believe that associating with you to embark on this fund; other
business ventures will derive a huge success thereafter.
I will use my position and influence to effect approvals for onward transfer
of this money to your account with appropriate clearance forms from the
ministries and foreign exchange department.
I am counting on your sense of confidentiality, as it is my desire to keep
this to yourself.
Looking forward to your urgent response.
Best Regards,
DR DONAH KOEMAN
