STRICTLY PRIVATE & URGENT BUSINESS PROPOSAL.

RE: TRANSFER OF $18,000,000.00 AMERICAN DOLLARS INTO YOUR ACCOUNT.

It is my great pleasure to write you this letter on behalf of my colleagues. I have decided to seek a confidential cooperation with you in the execution of a deal hereunder for the mutual benefit of all parties involve, and hope you will keep it confidential because of the nature of the transaction. Within the Department of Minerals & Energy where I work as the Director of Project Implementation, I have the co-operation of two other top officials and we have in our possession an overdue payment in United States of America Dollars.

The fund represents certain percentage of contracts executed on behalf of my Ministry by a Foreign Contractor. We were instrumental to the over-invoicing of the contract to the tune of US$18,000,000.00 (Eighteen Million United States Dollars). Though, the actual cost has been paid to the original contractor, leaving the excess balance (US$18,000,000.00) unclaimed. With democratic constitution, sound economic growth, financial discipline, social and economic stability and a confident fielding of the full team of its talented people, the government of the Republic of South Africa believes that private investment in general, and foreign direct investment in particular are the real engines for sustainable economic development, for which reason it has continued to encourage investment in the key growth-oriented sector of Mining with sincere determination to pay foreign contractors all debts owed so as to continue to enjoy a mutually beneficial cooperation and maintain good relationship with other foreign governments. As a result we included our Bills for approvals with the co-operation of some officials at the Ministry of Finance.

We are thus seeking your assistance MORALLY, FINANCIALLY and OTHERWISE as the Beneficiary of the unclaimed funds, since the code of conduct does not allow us to operate a foreign account or own a foreign company. In order to commence immediate action on the said project, we require the following urgently:

1) Your company?s name and address, confidential telephone and fax numbers.

2) Your Bank name and address, Account number,

3) ABA routing number, Account name, Bank telephone and fax numbers.

The requested information will be used to make a formal application to the Government Ministries as a matter of procedure for the issuance of approval for the payment of the funds into your account. It does not really matter whether or not your company does contract projects of the nature described here.

The assumption is that your company won the major contract and subcontracted it to other company. More often than not, big trading companies and firms of unrelated fields win major contracts, and subcontract to more specialized firms for execution, With my strong connections in the Reserve Bank of South Africa (RBSA) and Department of Finance and if ably supported by you as our foreign partner, you are assured of 100% Risk-Free and mutually beneficial transaction. We hereby propose that should you be willing to assist us in this transaction, your share as compensation will be 20%, while my colleagues and I receive 80%. This transaction should be considered 100% safe and legal provided you treat it with utmost confidentiality it deserves.

I have reposed my confidence in you and hope that you will not disappoint us now or in the future. So far, much has been said and due to our sensitive positions we cannot afford a slip in this transaction, neither, can we give out our identities, as per our respective offices but where relationship is established and smooth operation commences, you will be furnished with all you deserve to know.

Kindly notify me by fax on FAX NOS: + 27 115 075 396 OR + 871 763 593 926 for further details upon your acceptance of this proposal, if in the contrary you are not interested kindly notify me also.

Please treat as URGENT and highly CONFIDENTIAL.

Yours Faithfully,

MR. ERNEST COLMAN
