FIRST SECURITIES DISCOUNT HOUSE LIMITED FROM: MR. MARTINS IKECHI ATTN: THE PRESIDENT/CEO I am MR. MARTINS IKECHI, the director Of Operations, FIRST SECURITIES DISCOUNT HOUSE LIMITED,JOHANNESBURG, here in SOUTH AFRICA. Our firm is a security company of high repute with years of outstanding service to the people of SOUTH AFRICA. I have resolved to contact you through this medium based on business proposal that will of mutual benefit to both of us. I have not discussed this transaction with anybody because of its top secret. To beexplicit and straight to the point. Sometime, early last 1997; a reputable clients of ours deposited a consignment in our company's vault for safe keeping. And since then our client has failed to come forward to claim his consignment, which has accumulated a considerable amount of money in demurrage. Consequently, in our bid to contact this client to redeem the demurrage which his consignment had accumulated we discovered that our client was the former president of the Federal Republic of Zaire, who died of illness after he was de-throned in the same year the consignment was entrusted into our care. Since the death of our client, President Mobutou Seseseko, none of his benefactors has come forward to claim the consignment with us, which means that non of his relatives or aids had any knowledge of this consignment. Hence out of curiosity I decided to secretly open the two boxes that our client deposited in our vault. And to my surprise I discovered that the two boxes that were registered as treasurer by our client actually contained a considerable amount of money in United States Dollars amounting to about US$30million Dollar. Since this development I have been nursing plans secretly. I also found out from enquiries and the foreign media that our late client siphoned a lot of money from his country while he was in office as head of state. It is my conviction that the consignment in our vault was part of the money that our client iphoned and now that he is dead there is no trace to this money in our care. I am now soliciting your noble assistance to assistant me in transferring this money out of South Africa to your country form immediate investment with your assistance. I have also decided that you will generously be entitled to 40% of the total amount. Upon the receipt of your reply confirming your willingness to assist me of this transaction, I will immediately arrange and transfer all the right of ownership of this consignment to your name to facilitate your easy clearance and transfer of the complete funs to your country. Secondly, I will arrange for the consignment already labelled as family treasure to be lifted by diplomatic means to our security company's correspondence in oversea where I will meet you. You have nothing to worry about, as I will be there to assist you in anyway necessary with paper documentation. This transaction is 100% risk free. Please reply to the above email address. Thanks.
