Hello Dear
Firstly, I must solicit your confidence in this transaction; this is by virtue of its nature as being completely confidential. Though I know that a transaction of this magnitude will make one apprehensive and worried, I am assuring you that all will be well at the end of the day.

Let me start by first introducing myself properly to you. It may be surprising to you to receive this letter from me since there was no previous correspondence between us.

My name is Mr. Arno Daehnke and my purpose of searching for you and contacting you is for you to help me secure the funds that were left behind many years ago here at STANDARD BANK South Africa by my late client. My client has no traceable next of kin who can take over and did not update his WILL before his demise, none of his extended family is aware of this particular deposit. I will use my office to place you as the next of kin to the deceased customer if you agree, we will share the fund 50/50%. because THE AMOUNT I FIND IN THAT ACCOUNT IS R85,000,000.00 (eighty-five million rand)= 4,815,000.00 USD (Four Million, eight hundred and fifteen thousand united states dollars) and I am going to move the entire total amount I find in that account (R85,000,000.00) into your bank account, which we will share 50/50%.

All I require from you is your honest cooperation to enable us to achieve this transaction. There is nothing to worry about; I shall provide you the deposit documents and other appropriate legal backup documents, as I intend a business partnership venture with you. The intended transaction will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any influence of the law.

However, if this business proposition offends your moral ethics, do accept my sincere apology but if you wish to achieve this goal with me, I request you forward your personal details to my private email address daehnkearno35@gmail.com to enable me to contact you for further discussion. I would also request that you send me your most confidential phone number for further communication

Regards,
Mr. Arno Daehnke.

Greetings.
I am contacting you after making official enquiries at the foreign trade
office of the Chambers of Commerce here in Johannesburg South Africa. I
haven't disclosed the nature of my intention to anyone due to the
sensitive and confidential nature of the project involved which is my need
for assistance in profiling some investment funds and transfer of said
funds to your account.

I must plead for your confidence and confidentiality and if it so happens
that you are unable to assist in this projects I would crave your
indulgence and ask that you do not divulge this to any other third party
and ignore this email. I am constrained to issue more details about this
mutually beneficial financial project until I get your positive response
by email.
The Amount of fund in question is (USD$85, MILLION) accrued from an
over-inflated contract executed by foreign contractors through our
connections and the over-invoiced amount is waiting to be remitted from a
Standard bank here in South Africa. By virtue of my position as a senior
civil servant I cannot acquire this money in my name due to the fact that
I am bound by the Civil Service Code of Ethics which bars me from
operating bank accounts outside of our shores. On the other hand, it is
not safe to keep the funds here due to security reasons; hence my need to
source for an overseas silent partner to facilitate the transfer of these
funds for our mutual benefit.

My proposal is that after you receive the funds, it would be shared as
follows: 50% for you as commission for your cooperation and assistance in
facilitating the transfer, while the remaining 50% belongs to me. Which is
%50 / %50 for the both of us. Then you will be free to take out your
commission immediately after the money is credited to your account. Since
our objective is to invest the money in a foreign country, it would be
appreciated if you could also help us with your advice and direction on
what investment into profitable ventures in any country in the world.
What we need to do is give you an international approval from South Africa
Directorate for Priority Crime Investigation Hawks Mandatory Release Fund
Order Certificate then you will email the approval to the paying bank to
facilitate the processing and transfer of the contract funds into any of
your nominated bank accounts. Because the fund is already into an escrow
online bank account.

If you are interested and capable, I request you forward your personal
details to my private email address to enable me to contact you for
further discussion. I would also request that you send me your most
confidential phone number and Your ID copy/passport? You’re Occupation?
You’re Country Name? Your home address? Your full names? For further
communication too.

Please make sure you contact me at my Private Email Address: (
daehnkemrarno@gmail.com ) for further details.
Best Regards,
FROM MR. ARNO DAEHNKE. Chief Executive Officer, Corporate and Investment
Banking Director, Project Implementation and Audit Committee Standard
Bank, South Africa.
