SOUTH AFRICAN DEPARTMENT OF
ENERGY AND MINERAL RESOURCES (SADEMR)
PRETORIA. SOUTH AFRICA.

Sir.


It is my great pleasure in writing you this letter on
behalf of my colleagues and myself. Your particulars
were giving to me by a member of the South African
Export Promotion Council (S.A.E.P.C) who was among the
Government Delegation to your country during a trade
exhibition. I have decided to seek a confidential
co-operation with you in the execution of the deal
describe hereunder for the benefit of all parties and
hope you will keep it as top secret because of the
nature of this transaction. since we are still in
active service.


Within the department of mines & mineral resources
where I work as a Director. Project Implementation and
with the cooperation of four other top officials. we
have in our possession as overdue payment bills
totaling Sixteen Million. Four Hundred Thousand U.S
Dollars (US$16.400.000.00) which we want to transfer
abroad with the assistance and co-operation of foreign
company/individual to receive the said fund on our
behalf into a reliable foreign company/personal savings
account .


The amount represents some percentage of the total
value of contract executed on behalf of my department
by a foreign contracting firm based in America which
we the officials grossly over-invoiced. Though the
actual contract cost have been paid to the original
contractor. leaving the balance to 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.


We have decided to include our bills for approvals with
the cooperation of some officials from the Department
of Finance (D.O.F) and the Reserve Bank. We are
seeking your assistance in providing a good company or
any offshore bank account which the funds can be
transferred into and also for you to act as our main
partner and trustee .


I have the authority of my partners involved to
propose that should you be willing to assist us in this
transaction your share of the sum will be 30% of the
US$ 16.400.000.00. 60% for us and 10% for taxation and
miscellaneous expenses.


This business itself is 100% safe. provided you treat
it with utmost secrecy and confidentiality. Also your
area of specialization is not an hindrance to the
successful execution of this transaction. I have
reposed my confidence in you and hope that you will not
disappoint me.


Thanks for your cooperation.


Yours faithfully.


Dr.William Botha
