BUSINESSS PROPOSAL STRICTLY CONFIDENCIAL
Your contacts comes to me through a friend who does business between your country and south Africa.But i was careful not to reveal to him why i needed a competent foreign link inthe person of your respected self
In short, iam a trained chemist specializing in currency chemistry and top official in the south african security and printing and minting limited in Cape Town.Durring the last politcal dispensation in S.Africa in (2005__2006)i was hired and involved in the chemical reconversion of otherwise genuine United State Dollars Bills brought into S.Africa under hidden circumstances by power Arab National who were out to give financial support to a moslem former presidentail aspirant,this was with the tacit connivance of the military government.
Now in the heart that followed the political crisis and the subsequent cancellation of the elections,the former moslem presidential aspirant was clamped to jall and has since remained in detention, with the result that some package containing a little less then(forty million united state dollars)40,million u.s dollars,awaiting reconversion,were abandoned in my care and custody.
As a result of the discreet nature of the reconversion exercise,which in fact known only to me,I now have in my exclusive control 40 million U.S.dollars bill cash presently in the form of bonded retractable negative 267.03 mint stage,deliberately defaced to elude detection and facilitate their importantion into S.Africa.The bill now require only chemical reconversion to grate A1 125 neon proof mint stage and subsequent movement outside South Africa for choice investments preferebly in your country.
After successfully reconverting the dollars bill by chemical process,and the in the event that you accept to work with me,you shall entitled to 40% of this funds and another 5% shall be set aside for expenses,while the remainder of 55% shall be fore me and two subordinates
What in essence,the whole exercise entail,is that you shall be required to make a brief visit to Africa to see things for your self and to be convinced beyong doubts,that the reconverted bill would really meet any scientific or commercial test in terms of its genuiness,either in Africa,europe or in U.S.A.
Your visit will also avail us the opportunity of knowing each other and collectively plan workable strategies for smooth conclusion of the exercise.Finally,it is important to keep the facts of the exercise to your self,the way i have done all these months.You most agree with me,that we cannot blow up a chance of a life time,because we cannot be discreet over a matter that would definately work to our mutual satisfaction.
I await your urgent response,while i renain with best regards for your kind attention
sincerely yours
ENGR,KEBBI ZANNA
