In 2013, a client who is a foreign expatriate and a mining magnate resident here in South Africa came to my office at the private banking section with an investment interest of 45.5million United States Dollars, Based on my advice, we spun the money around on various opportunities and made attractive margins for our first years of operation, in late 2015 around October, he instructed that the principal sum be liquidated because he needed to make an urgent investment in a mining business deal in Botswana which requires cash payments; he then directed that I liquidate his fixed asset with our bank and have the funds deposited with a securities firm towards the intended Botswana deal. The firm is an especially private firm that accepts deposits from high net worth individuals and blue chip corporations. I immediately acted upon his instruction by liquidating his fixed asset and thereafter channelled the sum of USD45, 50
0,000.00 (Forty-five Million Five
However the firm got in touch with me in April this year, informing me that the agreed period of time the money is expected to be in their custody will expire by the end of July 2016 hence the notice of reminder was sent to me because I was directly involved with the deposit. At this point of getting the notice from the security firm, I tried to contact my client to inform him on the notice that I had received from the security firm but my attempts was fruitless. On further inquiries I found out that my client was involved in an accident in Cannes South of France which claimed his life, this was barely two weeks after I had spoken with him and he informed me that the Botswana deal was being delayed and so he was spending another three weeks in Europe where he was attending to some other businesses.
It will interest you to know that most of my dealing with my client was very private away from the knowledge of the bank based on trust and confidence that he had in me. Due to my clients numerous business connections and involvement, he always prefers to front others to stand as his fiduciary agent especially in monetary matters. If you are familiar with private banking, you should know that most of those who patronize our services usually prefer anonymity. Private banking clients usually in most cases leave their wills in our care, but in this case my client died intestate. He has no will or next of kin in connection with the funds deposited with the security firm and that is the reason I am writing to you because I want us to pull a deal for our mutual benefit.
What I am proposing is to have you stand as the beneficiary and associate partner to my late client to receive the USD45, 500,000.00 from the security firm. The security firm has no clue on who will be the recipient of the fund and will only follow my instruction to release funds to whoever I present as beneficiary. I have exclusive access to all paper works and all the documentations necessary to process the release of funds to you as beneficiary recipient. It is my intention that we both benefit from this fortune and split the fund 50/50 as soon as money is remitted to your bank account successfully.
Nobody is getting hurt; this is a lifetime opportunity for us. I hold the KEY to this funds and all I need is a trusted and reliable partner to work with me and achieve this success.
Please note I am a family man; I have a wife and children. I send you this mail not without a measure of fear as to the consequences if you should decide to turn my proposal down or label it as unsolicited, but I know within me that nothing ventured is nothing gained and that success and riches never come easy or on a platter of gold. Do not betray my confidence. If we can be of one accord, we should act swiftly on this. Please get back to me as soon as possible if you are interested.
I will be waiting for your prompt response.
Regards,
Trevor Johnson.
