ATTN:
Good day! My name is MRS, GLORIA ZUMA, the Director in charge of Audit
/Accounts Unit, Foreign Remittance Department of NEDBANK OF SOUTH
AFRICA,. Your contact is be courtesy of Johannesburg Chamber of Commerce
and Industry. During auditing, verification/investigation in out bank at
the end of last fiscal (financial) year, I discovered the sum of US$
15.000.000.00(FIFTHEEN MILLION UNITED STATES DOLLARS) in a dormant account
belonging to an Israeli International businessman wh o died along with his
family in a plane crash on 5th November, 1997 in Abidjan, Cote D'Ivoire.
My investigations revealed no survival for claims as I have long been
expecting someone to forward applications for claims as it applies to our
bankingregulations and if I do not remit this money out urgently, it will
be forfeited. However, I kept this information (SECRET) confidential within
my jurisdiction to enable me submit claims and transfer this fund through
trustworthy person whom I shall present as the bonafide next of kin to the
deceased. With my position now in the office, I can transfer this fund to
any reliable designated foreign account, with assurance that this fund will
be intact pending my physical arrival in your country for sharing.
All documents to this transfer will be destroyed on confirmation of the
money in your account thus leaving no trace to anything. Meanwhile, all
domestic arrangements have been put in place awaiting your response to
enable me conclude this transaction.
At the conclusion of this transaction,
you will be given 30% Of United States Dollars of the total amount, 60% of
United States Dollars of the total amount will be for me and Investment in
your country. And 10% Will be kept aside for any expences incured from both
side. Kindly call me on my phone numbers above before
sending any fax message for security reasons. I need your strong assurance
and
confidentiality. God bless us.
