[PATRICK FOSTER]

STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL & URGENT. 
 
 I am Mr, PATRICK FOSTER a native of Cape Town in 
 South Africa and I am an Executive Accountant with 
 the South Africa DEPARTMENT OF MINERAL RESOURCES AND ENERGY 
 
 First and foremost, I apologized using this medium to 
 reach you for a transaction/business of this 
 magnitude, but this is due to Confidentiality and 
 prompt access reposed on this medium. 
 
 I have decided to seek a confidential 
 co-operation with you in the execution of the deal 
 described Hereunder for the benefit of all parties 
 and hope you will keep it as a top secret because of the 
 nature of this transaction. 
 
 Within the Department of Mining & Natural Resources 
 where I work as an Executive Accountant and with the 
 cooperation of four other top officials, we have in 
 our possession as overdue payment bills totaling 
 Twenty - One Million, Five Hundred Thousand U. S. 
 Dollars ($21,500,000.) which we want to transfer 
 abroad with the assistance and cooperation of a 
 foreign company/individual to receive the said fund 
 on our behalf or a reliable foreign non-company account 
 to receive such funds. More so, we are handicapped in 
 the circumstances, as the South Africa Civil Service 
 Code of Conduct does not allow us to operate offshore 
 account hence your importance in the whole 
 transaction. This amount $21.5m represents the balance of the 
 total contract value executed on behalf of my Department by a 
 foreign contracting firm, which we the officials over-invoiced 
 deliberately. Though the actual contract cost have been 
 paid to the original contractor,leaving the balance in 
 the Tune of the said amount which we have in principles 
 gotten approval to remit by Key tested Telegraphic 
 Transfer (K.T.T) to any foreign bank account you 
 will provide,this will be made possible by filing in an 
application through the  Justice Ministry here in South 
Africa for the transfer  of rights and privileges of the former
 contractor to you. 
 
 I have the authority of my partners involved to 
 propose that should you be willing to assist us in 
 the transaction, your share of the sum will be 25% 
 of the $21.5 million, 70% for us and 5% for taxation and 
 miscellaneous expenses. The business itself is 100% 
 safe, on your part provided you treat it with utmost 
 secrecy and confidentiality. 
 
 I have reposed my confidence in you and hope 
 that you will not disappoint me. Endeavor to contact 
 me immediately through my private e-mail address if you
 are interested in this deal. I  want to assure you that my 
 partners and myself are in  a position to make the payment 
 of this claim possible  provided you can give us a very 
 strong Assurance and  guarantee that our share will be
 secured and please  remember to treat this matter as
 very confidential  matter, because we will not comprehend 
 with any form  of exposure as we are still in active 
 Government Service  and remember once again that
  time is of the  essence in this business. 
 
 I wait in anticipation of your fullest co-operation. 
 
 NOTE:YOUR RESPONSE TO THIS MAIL SHOULD BE SENT TO

 Yours faithfully, 
 
 PATRICK FOSTER
