Dear Sir/Madam,
I am Silas Monvete., Bank Manager of FirstRand Bank Limited ,South
Africa.This is an urgent and very confidential business proposition.
On June 6, 2000,a Foreign Oil consultant/contractor with the South African
Institute of Mining and Metallurgy, Mr.Morgan Smith made a numbered
time(Fixed) Deposit for twelve calendar months, valued at US$26,500,000.00,
(Twenty-six Million, five hundred thousand Dollars) in my branch.
Upon maturity,I sent a routine notification to his forwarding address but
got no reply. After a month,we sent a reminder and finally we discovered
from his contract employers, the National Petroleum Corporation that
Mr.Morgan Smith died from an automobile .
On further investigation,I found out that he died without making a WILL,and
all attempts to trace his next of kin was fruitless.
I therefore made further investigation and discovered that Mr.Morgan Smith
did not declare any kin or relations in all his official documents,including
his Bank Deposit paperwork in my Bank. This sum of US$26,500,000.00 has
carefully been fixed in my bank for safekeeping.
No one will ever come forward to claim it.According to South African Law,at
the expiration of 5 (five) years, the money will revert to the ownership of
the Government if nobody applies to claim the fund.
Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as a Foreigner to stand in
as the owner of the money which was fixed deposited in my bank. I am writing
you because I as a public servant,i cannot operate a foreign account.
I want to present you as the owner of the funds so you can be able to claim
them with the help of my attorney. This is simple.I will like you to provide
immediately your full names and address so that the Attorney will
prepare the necessary documents which will put you in place as the
beneficiary of the funds.
The money will be moved out for us to share in the ratio of 80% for me and
20% for you. The paperwork for this transaction will be done by the Attorney
and this will guarantees the successful of this transaction.
If you are interested, please reply immediately via my email address and
Upon your response,I shall then provide you with more details and relevant
documents that will help you understand the transaction.
Please observe utmost confidentiality, and be rest assured that this
transaction would be most profitable for both of us because I shall require
your assistance to invest my share in real estate within your country.
Due to the nature of confidentiality in this Transaction our communication
can only be via email and fax mostly.
Awaiting your urgent reply via my email or WebFax Above.
Thanks and my regards.
Mr.Silas Monvete.
