Subject: I NEED YOUR URGENT RESPOND PLEASE

My Dear,

After my inquiry from the international trade center Johannesburg South Africa, I found your information very interesting and decided to reach you directly to solicit for your assistance and guidelines in making a business investment and transfer of (US$31,500,000.00) to your country within the next few days.
Please I must plead for your confidence in this transaction. I am a high placed official working with Department of (Housing and Human Settlement), in Johannesburg. I and one other colleague are currently in need of a silent foreign partner whose identity we can use to transfer this sum of money, but at this moment, I am constrained not to issue more details about this profitable business investment until I get your response by email, please if you can take out a moment of your very busy schedule today to respond back to my private email for more details and include your private telephone number in your response which I and my colleague will highly appreciate.
This fund accrued to us as commission from foreign contracts, through our private connections. The fund is presently waiting to be remitted from the bank here in South Africa to any overseas beneficiary confirmed by us as associate/receiver. By virtue of our positions as civil servants in my country, we cannot acquire this money in our names. Because as high placed civil servants, we are not allowed by the civil service code of conduct to own or operate bank accounts outside our shores. On the other hand, it is not safe for us to keep the money here due to unstable political environment.
I have been mandated as a matter of trust by my colleague, to look for an overseas silent partner who could work with us to facilitate transfer of this fund for our mutual benefit, hence the reason for this letter. My proposal is that after you receive the funds, it would be shared as follows: 25% to you as commission for your co-operation and assistance in facilitating the transfer, while the remaining 75% belongs to me and my colleague.
You will be free to take out your commission immediately after the money hits your account in your country. Since our objective is to invest the money in a foreign country, it would be appreciated if you could also help us with advices and direction on investing into profitable ventures in your country. However, this is optional, and if it is not convenient for you to further assist us with investing the money, we can end our cooperation after you make available to me our part of the money. The transaction, although discrete, is legitimate and the money will be transferred successful with all necessary back-up official documents showing the legitimate source/origin of fund. The transfer will be affected within a period not longer than one week as soon as we reach an agreement and you furnish me with a suitable response indicating your interest for processing the transfer.
I plead with you on one issue, whether you are interested or not, kindly do not expose this information to anyone else. I confirm that the transaction is legitimate and without any risk either to yourself or us. Please, give me your response immediately by this email. (ah0908611@gmail.com)
