FROM MRS. SUSAN SHABANGU
FORMER MINISTER OF MINING
SOUTH AFRICA
EMAIL:[email protected] Sir.
First, let me start by introducing myself as Mrs. SUSAN SHABANGU, a mother ofthree children and the former Deputy Minister of Safety and Security since 29thApril 2004 to April 2009, and now former minister of Mining under the auspices of theformer President of South Africa MR JACOB ZUMA.
After due deliberation with my children, I decided to contact you for yourassistance in standing as a beneficiary to the sum of US$30.5M (Thirty Million,Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars Only)THE PROPOSAL, after the swearing in ceremony making me theDeputy Minister of Safety and Security, my husband Mr. Ndelebe Shabangu diedwhile he was on an official trip to Trinidad and Tobago in 1996, After his death,I discovered that he had some funds in a dollar account which amounted to thesum of US$30.5M with a security and finance institution in South Africa ofwhich I will divulge information to you when I get your full consent andsupport to go for a change of beneficiary and subsequent transfer of the fundsinto a comfortable and conducive account of your choice.
This fund emanated as a result of an over-invoiced contract which he executedwith the Government of South Africa. Though I assisted him in getting thiscontract but I never knew that it was over-invoiced by him. I am afraid thatthe government o f South Africa might start to investigate on contracts awardedfrom 1990 to date. If they discover this money in his bank account, they willconfiscate it and seize his assets here in South Africa and this willdefinitely affect my political career in government.
I want you to assist me in moving the said US$30.5M into your account in yourcountry as I want to present you to the Security and finance company as my latehusband foreign business partner that the said US$30.5M was meant to betransfer to you in your country and with all the back up legal paper work myAttorney will prepare will facilitate the transfer of the said US$30.5M intoyour nominated bank account in your country.
As soon as you confirm that the US$30.5M is in your nominated bank account inyour country, I will send my eldest son with my Attorney to come to yourcountry to discuss on business investments. For your assistance, I am offeringyou 20% of the principal sum which amounts to US$6,100.000.00 (Six million OneHundred Thousand United States Dollars Only) However, you have to assure methat you will not elope with my fund. If you agree to my terms, kindly as amatter of urgency I will like you to contact my first son . Due to my sensitiveposition in the South African Government,PLEASE DONOT CALL ON THE OFFICE LINE, BECAUSE OF THE SENSITIVE NATURE OF THISTRANSACTION JUST EMAIL ME OR CALL MY SON ALEX.
