Attention: President/Director,
 I am the chairman of the contract award committee of the Gold and
 Natural
 resources ministry here in South Africa, for security reasons, I may
 not
 wish to disclose the most important thing for now until I hear from
 you.

 After due deliberation with my partner, I decided to forward to you
 this
 business proposal, we want you to assist us receive the sum of Twenty
 eight million, six hundred thousand united state bills ($28.6M) into
 your
 account.

 This fund resulted from an over-invoiced contract awarded by us under
 the
 budget allocation to my ministry and the bill was approved for
  payment by
 the concerned ministries. The contract was executed, commissioned and
 the
 contractor was paid his actual cost of the contract. Now, we are left
 with
 the balance of $28.6M as the over invoiced amount, which we have
 deliberately over estimated for our own use. Please note that the law
 forbids civil servants to operate or own foreign accounts hence this
 contact, we have agreed to share the money in the following
 percentages:
30 for you, 60 for us 10 for tax as may be required by your
 government,
 because we don?t need anything will delay this money when it arrive
 in
 your bank account.

 Note that this transaction is very much free from all sorts of risk
 hence
 the business was carefully planned before it was successfully
 executed and
 we the officials involved in the deal have put many years in service
 to
 our ministry. We have been exercising patience for this privilege for
 so
 long not until the presidential announcement last week, that all
 foreign
 contractors owed be paid forthwith, this will enable the presidency
 reconcile our debt ratio with
 the outside world and to most of us, this is a lifetime blessing we
 cannot
 afford to miss.

 Upon indication of your interest to fully co-operate with us, a
 payment
 application/information form will be sent to you via email for
 completion.
  Note that the following information:  your private phone number and
 email
 address willenable us seek/secure approval of the fund from the
 concerned
 government quarters/ministries within 3-4 banking days.

 As soon as we confirm receipt of this money in your nominated bank
 account, my partner and I will come over to your country to arrange
 for
 our own share and possibly invest part of this  money in your
 country. Let
 honesty and trust be our watchword throughout this transaction.

 I shall furnish you with some details about myself. Your prompt reply
 will
 be highly appreciated.

 Best regards.

 Mr CELESTINE UBADI
