It is indeed my pleasure to write to you this letter , which I believe will be a suprise, as we are both complete strangers.I work for the ministry of minerals and Energy in south Africa, and by this letter I am representing and also acting on behalf of two of my senior colleages( The Director-General and The Group Manager) whose mandate I have gotten, to contact a trusted and reliable foreign based businessmen, concerning the business matter of mutual benefit to all.By this mandate given to me, we are in dire need of a foreign partner to assist us in the transfer/investment of USD16,000,000,00. ( Twenty-four million United States Dollars). The key issues are the transfer and the subseqent investment of the said sum. We are ready to go into an agreement with you and also offer you a negotiable fee for putting together an investment potfolio.It does not matter whether or not you own a company or you have invested funds before. We shall guide you on what to do. The basis will be that a major company won a contract and subcontracted it to you . More often, big trading companies and firms of unrelated field win contracts and subcontract to more specialised firms for execution.We shall follow strictly all legal procedure entailed in our laws and international laws in transfering the funds to you. The source of this funds is legitimate and authouritative. Please be informed that under the South African Government monetary policy, strategic positioned government officials are not allowed to operate or own bank account overseas, hence our need for a foreign partner to front for us.We pray that you take the essence of this letter in stict confidence,as the two officals involved would not like to be exposed on this. Kindly notify me by e-mail for futher details, upon your acceptance to assist us.Details will be made available to you as soon as you reply.
