STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL AND URGENT
I am Mr. Dickson Dada, a native of Cape Town in South
Africa and I am an Executive Director with a South
African Government ministry. I am also the Secretary of the Tenders
Committee set up by the government to look into contracts under the
Department of Minerals and Energy.
We got your contact via the internet and I was mandated to seek your
confidential co-operation in the execution of the project I am about to
describe. This project will be of great benefit to all parties involved
and hope you will keep
it as a top secret because of the nature of this
transaction.
Within the Department of Minerals and Energy, we (me and four of my
colleagues) discovered and we have in our possession as overdue payment
bills totalling
Forteen million, two hundred thousand US dollars
(US$14.2M) 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. Moreso, we are handicapped in the
circumstances, as the South Africa Civil Service Code
of Conduct does not allow us to operate offshore
accounts hence your relevance in the whole
transaction.
This amount US$14.2M represents the balance of the
total contract value executed on behalf of this
Department by a foreign contracting firm, which was over-invoiced
deliberately. Though the
actual contract cost have been paid to the original
contractor, leaving the balance in the tune of the
said amount which we have in principle gotten approval
to remit by key-tested telegraphic transfer (K.T.T.)
to any foreign bank account you will provide by filing
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 to
propose that SHOULD YOU BE WILLING to assist us in
this transaction, your share of the sum will be 15% of
the total sum, 80% for us and the rest for taxation
and miscellaneous expenses. The business itself is
100%-SAFE for all involved. This is possible if on your part , you
treat it with
utmost secrecy and confidentiality. Please note that your area of
specialisation is not a hindrance to the successful
execution of this transaction. I wish reposed my
confidence (which the committee vetoed) in you and hope that you will
not
disappoint me. Endeavour to contact me immediately by
email, 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 secure. Please
remember to treat this matter as a very confidential
matter, because we will not comprehend with any form
of exposure as we are still in active government
service and.
Due to the funds we borrowed to process this project to this stage,
time is of essence because of interest on borrowed funds.
Also furnish me with your contact telephone and fax number, so
that I can forward to you more information concerning the project.
I await in anticipation of your fullest cooperation.
Yours faithfully,
Dickson Dada.
