Greetings to you, with warm heart I offer my friendship.

After careful consideration with my children, we resolved to contact you for your most needed assistance in this manner. I duly apologize for infringing on your privacy, if this contact is not acceptable to you, as I make this proposal to you as a person of integrity. My name is Mrs. Susan Shabangu, mother of three and Minister of Mining of the Republic of South Africa

When I was sworn in as Minister, my husband Mr. Ndebele Shabangu a very successful businessman. Due to my political status, I was not involved in my husband's business which was very vast and successful.

My beloved husband died whilst on an official trip to Trinidad and Tobago in February 2001. I was contacted as next of kin by a financial firm in Europe to come forthwith the Certificate of Deposit to claim the safe deposit amount of $18,500,000.00 (US Dollars) from cash payment from his business associate in diamond trade.

My children and I then instructed the financial firm to continue holding the safety deposit until further instructions from me. Whilst I was going through his library collection and to my astonishment I discovered a Certificate of Deposit for the safety deposit with this financial firm, and other documents relating to the safety deposit.

We have decided to have this fund invested immediately in commercial and residential properties as well as profitable ventures, as any member of my family cannot hold such a huge amount in our name due to my political status, hence we sincerely propose to you to render us your most needed assistance in this regard.

Your role is to act on my behalf as a trustee to receive the safety deposit containing the funds from the financial firm. They are willing to send the funds to you if you are ready to receive it. My family's interest will be protected by a family associate, who is an attorney attached to the South African Embassy in the country where the financial firm is located. I have informed him that I am locating one of my husband's business associates (you) to handle the funds and invest on our behalf.

For your reliable assistance, we are offering you 15% ($2,775,000) of the funds.

On hearing from you, I will forward your contact to the gentleman lawyer who will be representing us, and also give you his contact for both of you to communicate and proceed with the transaction. Please contact me with the below mention mail.
