Attn: Director/CEO,
I apologies for this surprise mail to you but please I really need your assistance at this time. I got your contact email address from your Country Trade Journal and you are the only person that I have contacted in this business with believe that you will not let me down.
After going through some old files in the records department, I discovered an account opened in this bank in 1994 and since 2002 no body has operated on this account again, the owner of this account was late Mr. Smith Andrews, a foreigner and a miner at Anglo Gold Company. He was a geologist by profession and he died in 2002. Till date, no one knows about this account, and the amount involved is US$15 Million (15 Million United State Dollars) I want to first transfer US$10 Million (Ten Million United State dollars) from the fund into a foreign safe account abroad before I can transfer the balance.
I am contacting you for this purpose that the fund cant be approved to transfer to a local account since the beneficiary is a foreigner and deceased. The fund can only be approved for overseas transfer because the fund is in US dollars and can only be transferred to a foreign account. I need your assistance to transfer the fund to your countrys account. The management is ready to approve the payment to whoever that has the correct information as the next of kin to late Mr. Smith Andrews of which I shall provide to you.
I trust that you will be able to handle such amount in strict confidence and trust for our mutual benefits. This opportunity will never come again in my life; I need a trustworthy person in this business and therefore need your strong assurance, trust and reliability. With my position now in the office, I will make sure that this money is transferred into your account, which you can provide me with the assurance that this money will be intact pending my physical arrival in your country for our proper disbursement and you can also come down here to discuss with me face to face about the remittance modalities.
I will invest my own share of the money in your country and I am offering you 30% of the total fund, 70% will be for my colleagues and me. I will use my position and influence of my friend, the Chief Director in South African Reserve Bank to effect approvals for onward transfer of this fund to your account. We will also secure clearance form the Ministries and Foreign Exchange Department.
I am looking forward to your urgent response and please feel free to contact me on my direct phone number or via email above for proper conversation.
Best Regards
Dr. Arauco Martins. |
