First, I want to thank you for your prompt response to my email. I am Mr. Ciko Thomas, I work for one of the Investment Banks of South Africa, My late client’s name is Engr. Andrew George and American citizens! I do appreciate your kind of gesture towards this matter and your positive deposition to assist me. But as a matter of fact I want you to also be rest assured that this transaction is 100% legitimate and risk free, As my client left no will, the necessary tracing, Government Gazette notification and advertising has been performed, over the past two years bringing forth no valid beneficiary to these funds.
Consequently there is nothing for you to worry about. Before we embark on this project, I have conducted several investigations to see that one do jeopardize neither our job nor this transaction. Please bear in mind that, if there is going to be any problem I will never even start or rather embarked on it, considering my position at the bank as accountant, our life entitlement (pensions scheme) political careers and our family (wife and children). This is our life time opportunity I planned and waited patiently for this opportunity. So my dear friend do not be worry about anything I am here in the bank to see that this funds in questions are approved and transfer to you Nominated Bank Account in your country.
Like as I earlier said on my previous email that we have being searching for his possible relative but all effort was unsuccessful. Recently your name was among the findings that match the same surname as the deceases hence you were contacted as the possible relative or not. Considering the slump in the world financial markets we need to allocate these funds without delay.
Definitely I could have done this on my own, but the bottom line is I am an accountant manager as well as staff of the bank, so I cannot come out and have the funds transfer, couple with the fact that the South Africa laws of banking strictly prohibited us from having foreign account, hence I contacted you so that I can front you as the rightful next of kin/beneficiary of the Deceased in question and the amount that I am talking about to transfer to your account is US$ 27.5Million
Due to the urgency and time being of the essence in this transaction. I will ask you to reconfirm the following information below that will help us apply for the necessary Death Certificate from the Home Affairs Department. While you will contact our Bank and fill in the necessary forms for the subsequent transfer of these funds into your personal bank account.
1 Your direct confidential telephone (cell) fax numbers
2 Your full names as it is in your passport
3 Your Age
4 House address/company address if any.
5 Occupation/profession.
6 Gender
7 Marital Status
8 Country
N/B: As soon as I have this information from you, I will proceed to contact you immediately on the next step to follow and send you all the necessary information you will need to proceed.
Secondly, I will want to give you the assurance that this project is scheduled to be completed within 10 to 14 working days if all instructions are followed up religiously. But you have to assure me that you are going to be trustworthy and honesty because human behavior funny a times especially when it comes to money issue. Also I am sure you are aware this is a highly sensitive and confidential matter and should be treated as such. Upon your assistance, I have agreed to give to you 45%, then we will give any charity organization 10%, then 45% for me. I also want you to know that communication is very important on this transaction.
Thank you for your understanding, I hope to hearing from you as soon as possible.
Best regards.
Mr. Ciko Thomas
