Subject: I NEED YOUR PARTNERSHIP

Good Day,
I write asking for your indulgence in re-profiling funds which we want to keep under your supervision.
The Funds totaling US$18,700,000.00 (Eighteen Million, Seven Hundred Thousand United States Dollars) have been derived over time from a project awarded a
foreign firm by my department.
I work with The Department of Minerals & Energy here in Pretoria, South Africa.
Hence I have the authority of my partners to propose that should you be willing to assist us in this transaction, you will be highly compensated on agreed percentage by both parties.
If you are interested, send your full names,addresss, telephone and fax numbers for more details.
I wait your reply.
Regards,
Mr.Joseph Mkomu
