Dear Sir/Madam,
First, I must solicit your confidence in this transaction. I am a high
placed official working with Department of Finance (& Economic
Affairs), in Johannesburg South Africa. I and two other colleagues are
currently in need of a silent foreign partner whose identity we can use to
transfer the sum of Six Million Five Hundred Thousand U.S. dollars. This
fund accrued legitimately to us as commission from foreign contracts,
through our private connections.
The fund is presently waiting to be remitted from ABSA bank here in
South Africa to any overseas beneficiary confirmed by us as
associate/receiver. By virtue of our positions as civil servants in my country, we
cannot acquire this money in our names. Because as high placed civil
servants, we are not allowed by the civil service code of conduct to own
or operate bank accounts outside of our shores. On the other hand, it is
not safe for us to keep the money here due to unstable political
environment. I have been mandated as a matter of trust by my colleagues, to
look for an overseas silent partner who could work with us to facilitate
transfer of this fund for our mutual benefit, hence the reason for this
email.
What I am requesting from you is: (1) to be our silent partner and
receive the funds as the sole benefactor to the contract amount which we
shall secure all legal documentation to authenticate our claim. (2)
Provide a private telephone and fax number for easy communication under your
control .(3)Receive the funds as the beneficiary, take out your
commission and keep the rest of the money until I arrive there to meet you
after the transfer is completed.
My proposal is that after you receive the funds, it would be shared as
follows: (1) 15% to you as commission for your co-operation and
assistance in facilitating the transfer, while the remaining 85% belongs to me
and two colleagues. You will be free to take out your commission
immediately after the money hits 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 advices and direction on investing
into profitable ventures in your country.
However, this is optional, and if it is not convenient for you to
further assist us with investing the money, we can end our cooperation after
you make available to me our part of the money.
The transaction, although discrete, is legitimate and the money will be
transferred successful with all necessary back-up official documents
showing legitimate source/origin of fund. The transfer will be effected
within a period not longer than two weeks as soon as we reach an
agreement and you furnish me with a suitable response indicating your interest
for processing the transfer. I plead with you on one issue, whether you
are interested or not, kindly do not expose this information to any one
else. I confirm that the transaction is legitimate and without any
risks either to us or yourself. Please, give me your response immediately
by return mail through my alternative email address:
siphomohau@hotmail.com
Yours Faithfully,
Mr. Sipho Mohau.
