Thank you for your devoted time and willingness to adhere to me, my name is Mr. Samuel Thabo, an 
auditor with ABSA BANK of South Africa, a well known commercial bank which serves as an 
intermediary to BANK OF AMERICA in the UNITED STATES. After going through our files/system I now 
discovered the sum of USD 6,000,00 (SIX MILLION UNITED STATES DOLLARS) that was laundered into 
South Africa with your personal details as the co-beneficiary of the said funds. After due 
verification carried out by my bank and BANK OF AMERICA, it was clear to us that a businessman name 
(withheld) has been using this means to siphon money out of UNITED STATES to SOUTH AFRICA and was 
caught in money laundering activities by the (FBI), after the intimidation by the FBI he opened up 
about his activities with some top officials in the bank. As South Africa’s secret service provides 
the South African Government with a global convert capability to promote and defend the economic 
well-being of the country. Regional instability, terrorism and the proliferation of weapons of mass 
destruction and illegal narcotics. Absa bank wants to assist the Government to meet these 
challenges and in conjunction/agreement with Bank of America to pay out these floating funds to the 
co/beneficiary whose information where used in the money transfers. Kindly check the information 
above to see if it’s correspond with your details. We have to take precautionary measures not to 
pay out to the wrong entity, I shall like you to get back to me in receipt of this vital message in 
conformity of the above.
