Hello Sir/Madam,                     

I got your Email contact details from the South Africa Exchange
Information On-line Service on my personal programmed search on the
internet for a reputable company or individual to assist me sincerely
& confidential which your information & profiles were very
satisfactory, so I decided to contact you immediately.        
            

                      

It is my great pleasure to write you this letter. Within the Eskom
Holdings Limited where I work as a Director of Audit and Project
Implementation, I have in my possession an overdue payment in US
currency.                     

                      

The said funds represent certain percentage of the total contract
value executed on behalf of my Department by a foreign contracting
firm, which, I the official over-invoiced to the amount of US$35,000,
000.00 (Thirty Five Million United States Dollar). Though the actual
contract cost has been paid to the original contractor leaving the
excess balance unclaimed. Since the present elected Government is
determined to pay foreign contractors all debts owed, so as to
maintain good relationship with foreign governments and non-government
agencies, we included our bills for approvals with the Department of
Finance and the South Africa Reserve Bank (SARB).            
        

                      

I am seeking your assistance to front as beneficiary of the unclaimed
funds, since I am not allowed to operate foreign accounts, Details and
change of beneficiary information upon application for claim to
reflect payment and approvals will be secured on behalf of you/your
Company. I have to propose that should you be willing to assist me in
this transaction your share as compensation will be (35%), and the
balance of (65%) will be for me. The business is completely safe and
secure, provided you treat it with Utmost confidentiality. It does not
matter whether you/your Company does contract projects, as a transfer
of powers will be secured in favor of you/your Company. 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.                     

For more information kindly direct email

Thanks for your co-operation.
