Dear Sir/Madam,
 
On behalf of my colleagues and I, I write this letter with great pleasure. I am a member of the 
South African Export Promotion Council (SAEPC) presently with the African Economic Empowerment 
Commission (Government) delegation on a trip to the European Union for a bilateral conference talk 
to encourage foreign investors. 
 
I have decided to seek a confidential co-operation with you in execution of a business Transaction 
hereunder for the benefit of all parties. Within the Department of Mining Resources where I work as 
the Director of Project Implementation, with co-operation of  two other top officials, we have in 
our possession, an overdue payment in US funds. The said funds represent certain percentage of the 
contract value executed on behalf of my Ministry by a foreign contracting firm, which we the 
officials over-invoiced to the amount of US$14,300,000.00 (Fourteen Million, Three Hundred Thousand 
United States Dollars). Though the actual contract cost has been paid to the original contractor, 
leaving the excess balance unclaimed. 
 
The Government of the Republic of South Africa believe that private investment in general, and 
foreign direct investment in particular, is the real engines for sustainable economic development, 
for which reason it has continued to encourage investment in the key growth-oriented sector of 
Mining with sincere determination to pay foreign Contractors all debts owed to them, so as to 
continue to enjoy close relationship, and a mutually beneficial co-operation with foreign 
governments and non-governmental financial agencies. As a result we included our bills for 
approvals with the Co-operation of some officials at the Department of Finance and the Reserve Bank 
of South Africa (RBSA).
 
 We are seeking your assistance to be the beneficiary of the unclaimed funds, since we are not 
allowed to operate a foreign account. The changing of beneficiary’s information/details and other 
forms of documentation upon application for claim to reflect the contract money and its approvals 
will be secured on behalf of your company or your good self. I have the authority of my colleagues 
involved to propose that, should you be willing to assist us in this transaction your share as 
compensation will be 40% while my colleagues and I shall receive 55%, and the balance of 5% shall 
be used to reimburse all expenditures, taxes and miscellaneous expenses so incurred. It does not 
matter whether or not your company does contract projects of the nature described here. The 
assumption is that your company won the major contract and subcontracted it to other companies. 
More often than not, big trading companies and firms of unrelated fields win major contracts, and 
subcontract to more specialized firms for execution. 
 
This business itself is 100% safe, provided you treat it with utmost confidentiality. Also your 
specialization is not a hindrance to the successful execution of this mutual beneficiary 
transaction. I have reposed my confidence in you and hope that you Will not disappoint us. Kindly 
notify me by email or call me .for further details, upon your acceptance of this proposal. 
 
Regards, 
 
Dr Tanbo Radebe
