Dear, After due deliberation with my children, I decided to contact you for your assistance in standing as a beneficiary to the sum of US$25 Million (Twenty five Million United States Dollars) First, let me start by introducing myself, I am MS.SUSAN SHABANGU, a mother of three children and the Deputy Minister of Safety and Security of the Republic of South Africa since 29 April 1996.

You may visit this site for my profile; [http://www.info.gov.za/gol/gcis_profile.jsp?id=1066] After the swearing in ceremony making me the Deputy Minister of Minerals and Energy, my husband Mr. DAVID SHABANGU died while he was on a trip to Trinidad and Tobago in 2002.After his death, I discovered that he had secured some funds in a dollar account, which amounted to the sum of US$25 Million with SECURITY COMPANY. This fund emanated as a result of an over-invoiced contract, which he executed with the Government of South Africa. Though I assisted him in getting this contract but I never knew it was over-invoiced by him. I am afraid that the government of South Africa might start investigations on contracts awarded from 1998 to date and if this is discovered the money will be confiscated and forfeited to the state including his assets here in South Africa and this will definitely affect my political career in government. I want your assistance in clearing this money from the security firm. Whereby standing as the soul beneficiary. As soon as the fund is cleared, you are expected to move it immediately into another personal bank account in your country. I will see to it that the account is not traced from South Africa. As soon as you have confirmed the fund in your account, I will send my eldest son with my Attorney to come to your country for discussions on business investments. For your assistance, I am offering you USD5 Million (Five million United States Dollars Only) however, you have to assure me and also be ready to go into agreement with me that you will not elope with the money when transferred into your account. If you agree to my terms, kindly as a matter of urgency send me an email at (susandav@executivemail.co.za). Due to my sensitive position in the South African Government, I would not want you to call me on phone or send a fax to me. All correspondence must be by email to my private email above. If you want to speak with my Attorney, that is fine and okay by me. His chambers will be representing my interest with you. All correspondence must be made through my Attorney.
