URGENT AND CONFIDENTIAL BUSINESS PROPOSAL.
ATTN: Director/CEO Francisco
TEL: 27 83 509 2941
I write to solicit for your utmost assistance on a business proposal that would be of immense benefit to both of us involved. I got your contact information while making inquiries through a business Trade Journal for investment purpose in your country.
Permit me to introduce myself. I am Mr. George Savimbi, Personal Assistant to the late Angolan rebel leader Mr. Jonas Savimbi of Unita Rebels. Prior to his death, I was sent on a diplomatic mission to the Republic of South Africa to purchase arms and ammunition worth US$22 Million (Twenty-two million United States Dollars) and the money was properly arranged and delivered to South Africa by a diplomatic itineraries, a border post monitored by our rebel group.
On my arrival here in South Africa, I had a change of mind and decided to part ways with all the money under my control, following the facts that I had realized that we were fighting for the selfish interest of my close brother, the former rebel leader, late Mr. Jonas Savimbi. Moreover, I decided to give peace a chance to reign for the emancipation of a new era in our country, Angola.
This money in the diplomatic luggage was deposited in a Security and Finance Company here in South Africa for safety reasons and I intend to invest this money in a business that could generate an income for me, as I am no more in service to anybody.
Furthermore, I am presently seeking for political asylum here in South Africa, while making contact to see a way I can move this money to a foreign country where I could invest, as the country (South Africa) did not permit any investment by refugees.
I decided to contact you to stand as a foreign partner to provide an account where I will lodge this money into as the beneficiary. If you are interested in helping me with this transfer, I am offering you 20% of the total money and 75% is for me while 5% will be for any expenses that could be made in the course of this transaction.
There is no risk involved, as I have made every necessary arrangement for a successful transfer of this money.
Thanks while expecting your reply.
Best regards,
Mr. George Savimbi

************* LETTER # 3 *********************
ATTN: FRANCISCO
Dear Sir
RE: GEORGE SAVIMBI
Our services have been retained and by virtue of a
Power of Attorney and executed in Johannesburg we have
been appointed Consultant by Mr. GEORGE SAVIMBI,
hereinafter referred to as our Principal/client a
National of ANGOLA and now resident at Cambridge House
No 13 Randpark Ridge, Johannesburg, Republic of South
Africa.
We have been instructed to deal with you on his behalf
to ensure the successful transfer abroad of his fund
for investment purposes. Stated hereunder is the procedure that should be adopted to ensure a hitch free transfer.
1.You need to send to us (by fax) as soon as possible
a copy of your identity document or details to enable
us effect the necessary changes at the security company (that is to open a joint-ownership title between yourself and our principal/client) so that once you arrive in Johannesburg you can go to the Consultant's firm and sign the agreement (incorporating the terms and proposal you will present in due course) that would govern the venture/business relationship between yourself and our principal/client. Please Note that you are liberty to enter into a formal contract with our principal/client in your own name (personal capacity) or in your company's name/capacity. If you choose your personal name then it would be required for you to send your identity details such as the photocopy of relevant page(s) of your international passport showing the International passport number, full name(s) and any other document which in your opinion would be identify you better but if you however prefer your company's name in respect of this venture, then you should send to us:
a. The details in respect of the incorporation/the
memorandum and articles of association)
b. The signatory/signatories of the company's account
2. This transfer/transaction can be completed in 3-4
working days. However, once you are in the Republic of
South Africa, the following things are to be done:
a. To sign the joint ownership agreement/contract.
b. To open a non resident bank account for which the
following are needed:
(i) Your presence in the Republic of South Africa
(ii) Your International Passport with a valid visa
(iii) At least One Hundred United States Dollars
(US$100)
c. Collection of the funds from the Security Company
and depositing it in your non-resident account.
Please note that Saturdays and Sundays are non working
days in the Republic of South Africa
3. According to the Banking Regulations in the
Republic of South Africa, once money is deposited in a
non -resident account, the owner of the account is at
liberty to transfer it to any bank account in any
party of the world. Once the money is deposited in
your non resident account the next step is for our
principal/client or a member of this firm to accompany
you abroad to look at the profitable business
opportunities for investment which is your onus and
responsible to provide. We have no objections to our
client leaving South Africa to any other country as
long as that nation has relative peace and
tranquility. At the moment our client has only a
refugee status and his international passport has been
possessed by the department of Home Affairs. However,
we are working together with immigration lawyers to
provide him with valid papers that will enable him
travel out of South Africa. The same applies to a
member of his family.
4. In respect of the expenses you must meet we want
you to note that a certain percentage of the funds to
be transferred for investment abroad has been set out
to off-set expenses that are incurred in the course of
the transaction. Thus you shall be fully reimbursed
(subject to the provision of sufficient proof
(receipts for example) for the following expenses:
traveling expenses, Hotel accommodation, phones bills,
etcetera. However, if the need arises, we shall let
you know of any miscellaneous expenses that will need
to be taken care of, and just as stated here in above
you shall be fully reimbursed for all miscellaneous
expenses. Please note that the reasons why our
principal/client cannot at the moment take care of the
expenses stated here in above is because the funds are
still in the possession of the security company.
5. Based on the confidentiality of this transaction,
which ought to be maintained, and safe guarded by all
parties concerned, you are advised not to contact any
other third party. It should be understood that
consulting any other medium, person, association
etcetera is breech of a fundamental term of the
agreement governing this business relationship which
would make the innocent party entitled to treat the
business venture as terminated, cancelled and
repudiated.
6. In respect of your share of the money, or
commission. You need not worry. The joint ownership
agreement is a legal document governing the
relationship of the parties to this venture. This
document is recognized and enforceable by the law and
if any of the parties defaults or breeches any of the
fundamental terms of the agreement the other party can
maintain legal action against the defaulting party.
The right of all parties concerned are fully protected
by this document
7. Send to us as soon as possible an outline of the
investment /business opportunities you intend to
explore on behalf of our principal so as to convince
us of your suitability in business. We are interested
in following areas: Manufacturing, Hotel Management,
Real Estates Stock and Bonds etc.
8. Kindly take note that time is of the essence in
this transfer/transaction. Thus it is to the advantage
of all the parties concerned if you can make haste
with respect to coming down to South Africa to perfect
this transfer/transaction otherwise the funds in the
custody of the security company will accumulate a lot
more as demurrage.
9. Also send to us immediately it is possible, your
flight schedule/itinerary to inform us of when you can
come to the Republic of South Africa to enable us make
reservations on your behalf in a comfortable and
secure hotel.
Do not hesitate to contact us if you need further
clarifications.
Sincerely,
JONATHAN PHOSA, Esq.
(Solicitor & Financial Consultant).
