Dear friend,
Please
do not be embarrassed to receive this mail especially since we do not
know each other in person. I was opportune to have your esteemed
particulars from South Africa Information Exchange (S.A.I.E.), during
my search for a reliable person who will assist me to handle a very
confidential transaction, which involve a transfer of a fund to youre a
foreign account.
My concern is how to transfer my late
husbands money amounting to US$25.5 Million (Twenty-Five Million Five
Hundred Thousand United States Dollars), out of South Africa for a
better investment abroad.
I am Mrs. Felicia Shabangu Gezi,
the wife of late Mr. shabangu Gezi. My husband was the former
Zimbabwean Minister for youth, gender and Employment creation. While
alive, my husband stood against seizure of white farms and the
distribution of the farms to the blacks without compensation to the
white owners. Because of my husband's sincerity, he was killed by a
planned auto accident along Harare-Masvingo Road near Mvuma Province of
Zimbabwe.
Before his untimely death, my husband told me
some few weeks earlier that he kept one diplomatic box with a private
finance and Security Company in Johannesburg, South Africa which
contains US$25.5 Million (Twenty-Five Million, Five Hundred Thousand
United States Dollars). He warned that he only declared the contents of
the diplomatic box to the Security Company as a
family treasure/
values, with insurance values of the said amount. He also told me that
he used the name of our son Benson shabangu Gezi as the beneficiary of
this money being his only child.
The original document
that shows the Deed of lodge, Proof of Deposit, and Depository
Agreement between my late husband and the Management of the Security
Company is with me.
Because of South African Financial Law, which
bared asylum seekers/ refugees like us to operate an account that
exceed US$1000 and fear of the amount involved, I decided to write to
you to seek your help for this money to be transferred into your
companys or personal bank account for our future investment in your
country.
I am presently sick and admitted in the hospital
for treatment. So, I will please ask you call my son as soon as you
receive this letter for more details concerning this fund transfer.
Please give us your direct phone and fax numbers, which will allow an
easy communication before or after transferring the money into your
bank account. I want to assure you also that this transaction is 100%
risk free. As for your reward for this kind assistance, we are ready to
offer you 20% of the total sum while 10% will be set aside for expenses
incurred
in the course of the transaction. Please find below how I want you to help my son and I.
1). YOU ARE REQUIRED TO COME DOWN TO SOUTH AFRICA TO HELP US CLEAR THE OUT-STANDING DEMURRAGE FROM THE SECURITY COMPANY.
2).
YOU WILL SETUP AN OFFSHORE BANK ACCOUNT WHEN YOU ARRIVE HERE, WHERE THE
FUND WILL BE FIRST DEPOSITED BEFORE ONWARD TRANSFER TO YOUR LOCAL BANK
ACCOUNT.
3). WE ALSO NEED YOUR INTERNATIONAL PASSPORT COPY, WHICH WILL ENABLE US
MAKE THE CHANGE OF OWNERSHIP CERTIFICATE IN YOUR NAME AS THE BENEFICIARY
OF
THIS FUND, WHICH WILL SEND TO YOU AND TO ENABLE THE SECURITY COMPANY
RELEASE THE BOX TO US AS SOON AS YOU ARE HERE FOR COMPLETION.
4). YOUR FULL NAMES AND RESIDENTIAL ADDRESS.
5). KINDLY PROVIDE YOUR AGE AND OCCUPATION TO LET ME KNOW IF YOU ARE CAPABLE OF HANDLING THIS TRANSFER.
6). ALL YOUR EXPENSES WILL BE GIVING BACK TO YOU AS SOON AS WE CLEAR THE BOX UPON YOUR ARRIVAL.
If
you are willing to help my son and I, please try as soon as possible to
get back to me through the above private telephone and e-mail.
I do hope of establishing a good relationship with you and your family after
this transaction.
God bless you and your family while waiting to hear from you urgently.
Yours Sincerely,
Mrs. Felicia.shabangu Gezi & Son (prince.B.shabangu.gezi)
(For the family)

This is just a small sampling of the
many hundreds of advance fee fraud e-mails received each day here at
419BAITER
headquarters. It is 100% pure B.S. Purity Guaranteed!
There are many different types of 419 scam (examples)
but they all promise you something (fortune, job with salary /
commision,
low-interest loan, lottery prize,
bargain gold dust / diamonds,
work visa, etc.) in return
for a small 'fee' or some kind of remittance. Of course, there is no
fortune, no job, no loan, no prize to be had. It's just a ploy to get
you to
willingly send them money.

section.
NOTE TO
DUMBASS SPAMMERS:
My scam e-mail filtering system is pretty good
but it isn't perfect.
Occasionally a regular spam e-mail will get mistakenly published here
as
a
419 scam. This is inadvertent. If you are a spammer and you don't wish
to have your crap mistakenly published on this website as a
419
advance fee
scam, the solution is
simple. Don't mail your crap to harvested e-mail
addresses.
