I am Mr. Timothy Nkono, a native of Cape Town in South Africa and I am
an
Executive Accountant with the South Africa Department of Mining &
Natural
Resources. First and foremost, I apologized using this medium to reach
you
for a transaction/business of this magnitude, but this is due to
confidentiality and prompt access reposed on this medium. Be informed
that
a member of the South Africa Export Promotion Council (SEPC) who was at
the Government delegation to your country during a trade exhibition
gave
your enviable credentials/particulars to me. I have decided to seek a
confidential co-operation with you in the execution of the deal
described
hereunder for the benefit of all parties and hope you will keep it as a
top secret because of the nature of this transaction.

Within the Department of Mining & Natural Resources where I work as an
Executive Accountant and with the cooperation of two other officials,
we
have in our possession as overdue payment bills totaling Eighteen
Million,
Five Hundred Thousand U. S. Dollars ($18,500,000.00) which we want to
transfer abroad with the assistance and cooperation of a foreign
individual to receive the said fund on our behalf or a reliable foreign
account to receive such funds. More so, we are handicapped in the
circumstances, as the South Africa Civil Service Code of Conduct does
not
allow us to operate offshore account hence your importance in the whole
transaction.

This amount $18.5M represents the balance of the total contract value
executed on behalf of my Department by a foreign contracting firm,
which
we the officials 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 principles gotten approval to
remit by Telegraphic Transfer (T.T) to any foreign bank account you
will
provide by filing in 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 involved to propose that should you
be
willing to assist us in the transaction, your share of the sum will be
25%
of the $18.5 million, 70% for us and 5% for taxation and miscellaneous
expenses. The business itself is 100% safe, on your part provided you
treat it with utmost secrecy and confidentiality. 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. Endeavor to contact me immediately through my above
telephone and fax number or my e-mail address, 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 secured and please remember to treat this matter
as
very confidential matter, because we will not comprehend with any form
of
exposure as we are still in active Government Service and remember once
again that time is of the essence in this business.

I wait in anticipation of your fullest co-operation.

Dial the below telephone and fax numbers directly as seen without my
country code

I don't think posting on ATOT qualifies as 'secret' :p:D
call the number from a company phone at Home Depot or something, I'm sure they'll have something else funny to say.

Maybe he'll tell you for the third time what he does for a living and where :confused:
