.....Good day
I am contacting you after making official enquiries at the foreign trade
office of the Chambers of Commerce here in Johannesburg, South Africa. I
havent disclosed the nature of my intention to anyone due to the sensitive
and confidential nature of the project involved which is my need for
assistance in profiling some investment funds and transfer of said funds to
your country.
I must plead for your confidence and confidentiality and if it so happens
that you are unable to assist in this project I would crave your indulgence
and ask that you do not divulge this to any other third party and ignore
this email. I am constrained to issue more details about this mutually
beneficial financial project until I get your positive response by email.
The fund in question $40,000,000.00 (Forty Million USD) accrued from an
over-inflated contract executed by foreign contractors through our
connections and the over invoiced amount is waiting to be remitted from a
commercial bank here in South Africa. By virtue of my position as a senior
civil servant I cannot acquire this money in my name due to the fact that I
am bound by the Civil Service Code of Ethics which bars me from operating
bank accounts outside of our shores. On the other hand it is not safe to
keep the funds here due to security reasons; hence my need to source for an
overseas silent partner to facilitate the transfer of these funds for our
mutual benefit.
My proposal is that after you receive the funds, it would be shared as
follows: 30% to you as commission for your cooperation and assistance in
facilitating the transfer, while the remaining 65% belongs to me. You will
be free to take out your commission immediately after the money is credited
to 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 advice and direction on investing into profitable ventures in your
country.
What we need to do is give you an approval from the ministry and you will
email the approval to the paying bank to facilitate the processing and
transfer of the contract funds into any of your nominated bank accounts. If
you are interested and capable, I request you forward your personal details
to my private email address *mthembub(a)africamail.com* to enable me to
contact you for further discussion. I would also request that you send me
your most confidential phone number for further communication too.
Respectfully,
Mr. Themba Mthembu
