you to co-operate with me so that this US$35M will be released and
transferred into your account.
My name is MR.RICARDO ALLISON the CEO / chairman of contract award

very important and highly confidential transaction for the transfer of
US$35,000, 000,.00 into your account. the (US$35,000,000.00) was the
over estimated balance from the contracts awarded to both foreign and
local contractors the real contract value was US$120 million united
states dollars, but it was over estimated to the tune of (US$155,000,
000,00) (one hundred and fifty five million united states dollars
only).
The contract has been successfully executed by the contractors and
their contract sum of (US$120M) has been paid to them, leaving our
over estimated balance of (US$35,000, 000. 00) United States dollars

estimated balance of (US$35M) which is still floating at the escrow
account in the South African reserve bank awaiting final payment to
any reliable foreign bank account you may provide.

be released and transferred into your account. if you are interested
