FOR YOUR KIND ATTENTION:
I am Engr. George Pahad, a Native
of Cape Town in South Africa and I am an Engineer working with the
South Africa Department of Mining & Energy.First and foremost
I apologise for using this medium to reach you for a transaction
of this magnitude but this is due to confidentiality and prompt
access reposed on this medium.Be informed that a member of the South
Africa Export Promotion Council (SEPC) who was part of my government
delegation to your country during a recent Trade Exhibition gave
your enviable credentials/particulars to me while assuring me on
your competence to handle a business transaction involving a large
sum of money with absolute confidentiality.
Therefore I have decided to seek
a confidential co-operation with you in the execution of the deal
described hereunder for the benefit of all parties and while hoping
you will keep it as top secret because of the nature of this transaction.Within
the Department of Mining & Energy where I work as a Director
and with the cooperation of three other top officials, we have in
our possession an overdue contract payment bills totalling Fourteen
Million,four Hundred Thousand united states dollars(S$14,400,000.00).This
money which we intend to process its transfer as a form of contract
payment into a reliable company/individual account depending on
your convenience. Your assistance and co-operation is required due
to the circumstances surrounding our work as government officials
whereby the South Africa Civil Service Code of Conduct does not
allow us to operate an Offshore Bank account hence your importance
in the whole transaction.
Presently, this amount (US$14.4M)
representing the balance of the total contract value executed on
behalf of my Department by a foreign contracting firm which we the
officials over-invoiced deliberately is lying unclaimed in the government
escrow bank account with Reserve Bank of South Africa.We hereby
seek your assistance and co-operation that will enable us to process
this sum of money to you as a form of contract payment.We have the
necessary authority to validate and forward approvals of outstanding
contract claims to the government for final payment on approval
through the Reserve Bank of South Africa (RSBA).All partners agreed
while mandating me to propose that should you be willing to assist
us in the transaction, your share of the sum will be 25% of the
US$14.4 million while the balance of 75% will be for us.
The business itself is 100% safe
on your part provided you treat it with utmost secrecy and confidentiality.Also
note that your area of specialisation is not an hindrance to the
successful execution of this transaction.I have reposed my confidence
in you while awaiting your prompt response through the email address
above or:geopah@didamail to notify me of your capability to assist
us in achieving success in this transaction.Finally on your part,we
will appreciate you treat this transaction as very confidential
while we assure of a 100% risk free transaction provided you follow
our instruction totally.
I await your confirmation of my message
while praying that this will be the begining of a lifelong partnership
between us. Thank you for your co-operation.
