Hello, I am Miss Young. I received the following email. It is a socalled
"Advance Fee Fraud" letter, where I am promised millions for
my assistance. These stories are all lies, and if I respond, sooner
or later I will be asked to pay a fee. If I pay, another fee will quickly
come up, and it will continue that way until I give up or run out of
money. I will never see the millions, because they never existed.
If you received a similar email, you should go to the homepage to read more about 419 fraud.
I am making this partnership proposal to you in strict confidence. I am writing following an opportunity in my office that will be of immense benefit to both of us. I am a manager in one of the leading banks in my country South Africa. In the branch that I managed I discovered an abandoned large sum of money (US$16.4Million) in a dormant account belonging to one of our foreign clients.
My findings revealed that the original owner of the account is dead. Since the death of the owner long ago the account has been dormant and nobody has come forward to claim the funds. I also discover that the deceased has known next of kin according to the bank records.
Since I have all necessary information needed to claim the funds, can I present you as the heir to the deceased before the bank? Your physical presence here is not a priority as all the claim procedures will be done through a proxy. If you would like to work with me to claim the funds, then indicate your interest after which we shall both discuss the modalities and the sharing percentage. I will appreciate if you could contact me through my direct email address: ronald.thwala@yahoo.co.nz to register your interest.
I urge you to send me the following information (full name, phone number, age and country) to enable me start the process.
Looking forward to a good business relationship with you,
Mr. Ronald Thwala.
