OGGETTO: STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL & URGENT.
I am Mr., S GARBA an Executive Accountant with the Department of finance
of mineral resources and energy South Africa.
First and foremost, I apologized using this medium to reach you for a transaction/business
of this magnitude, but this is due to confidentiality and prompt access reposed
on this medium.
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 hope you
will keep it as a top secret because of the nature of this transaction.
Within the Department of finance where I work as an Executive Accountant and
with the cooperation of four other top officials, we have in our possession
as overdue payment bills totaling Twenty - One Million, Five Hundred Thousand
U. S. Dollars ($21,500,000.) which we want to transfer abroad with the assistance
and cooperation of a foreign company/individual to receive the said fund on
our behalf or a reliable foreign non-company account to receive such funds.
More so, we are handicapped in the circumstances, as the South Africa Civil
Service Code of Conduct does not allow us to operate offshore account hence
your importance in the whole transaction.
This amount $21.5m represents the balance of the total revenue collections
from income tax, mining lease and export duties in respect of diamond mines,
expressed as a percentage of total tax revenues (net collections, National
Revenue Account.
From these projects we have been able to secure this reasonable ammount. $21.5m
as commission resulting from over invoice, hence all the necessary approvals
has been completed.
This amount $21.5m represents the balance of the Estimated revenue total value
executed on behalf of my Department by foreign contracting firm, which we
the officials over-invoiced deliberately. Though the actual Estimated revenue
cost have been paid to the original contractor, leaving the balance in the
Tune of the said amount which we have in principles gotten approval to remit
by Key tested Telegraphic Transfer (K.T.T) to any foreign bank account you
will provide by filing in an application through the Justice Ministry here
in South Africa for the transfer of rights and privileges of the former contractor
to you. I have the authority of my partners involved to propose that should
you be willing to assist us in the transaction, your share of the sum will
be 25% of the $21.5 million, 70% for us and 5% for taxation and miscellaneous
expenses. The business itself is 100% safe, on your part provided you treat
it with utmost secrecy and confidentiality.
Also your area of specialization is not a hindrance to the successful execution
of this transaction. I have reposed my confidence in you and hope that you
will not disappoint me.
Endeavor to contact me immediately on my e-mail address or phone number whether
or not you are interested in this deal. If you are not, it will enable me
scout for another foreign partner to carry out this deal I want to assure
you that my partners and myself are in a position to make the payment of this
claim possible provided you can give us a very strong Assurance and guarantee
that our share will be secured and please remember to treat this matter as
very confidential matter, because we will not comprehend with any form of
exposure as we are still in active Government Service and remember once again
that time is of the essence in this business.
I wait in anticipation of your fullest co-operation.
Yours faithfully,
SOLOMON GARBA.
