CONFIDENTIAL REQUEST.
Dear Sir/Madam,
It is indeed my pleasure to write to you this letter, which I believe will be a surprise to you, as we are both complete strangers. I Work at the Department of Minerals and Energy in South Africa as the Director of Audit and Project Implementation, I have the mandate of three senior colleagues to search discreetly and diligently for a foreign partner that could assist us concerning a business matter, which will be of mutual benefit to all. We do require your assistance in the transfer of US$25,500,000.00(Twenty Five Million Five Hundred Thousand United State Dollars).
This fund emanate from over invoiced contract amount that was executed for my Department by a mining company, which has undergone liquidation. Although the actual contract amount was paid to the company, the over invoiced amount of US$25,500,000.00 has since been lying in the Department’s escrow account at the Reserve Bank of South Africa pending proof of claim, I am privy to this classified information by virtue of my position in the Department. However we are unable to proceed alone with the transaction because the civil service code of conduct laws strictly prohibits us from engaging in private business or operating any foreign account, hence our search for a foreigner whose company and account (business or private), we can use to transfer the money.
We already have the approved proof of claim and evident of this contract in our possession, while soliciting for a reliable and committed foreign partner to act as front for us. The basis of this transaction is that the assets of the Liquidated Mining Company, which won the contract from my Department is being acquired by your company and we shall arrange all the necessary documentation in Conjunction with one of the ex-directors of the closed mining company. Acquisitions of company are very common practice here in my country and the officials responsible for documentation have been settled on this matter.
Please note that this transaction is 100% risk free and we shall abide strictly to all the legal procedure as contained in our laws and internationals laws in transferring the fund. I ask that you keep this communication strictly confidential, as the three senior officials involved are very highly placed government functionaries and would not like to be exposed at this stage.
Please go through this letter carefully and if you are interested in assisting us, kindly contact us through the above confidential telephone or email address as time is of great essence in this transaction. Upon your acceptance to assist us I shall provide you with more information on procedures and also negotiate your percentage with you for your assistance.
Thank you and God bless as I wait for your urgent response.
My sincere regards
ENGR.COLLINS MBEZUMA.
