Future Partner,
Good day, I know this email will come as a surprise, but I need to contact you because of the urgency and confidentiality of this business transaction. I am the Chief Account Officer of Ghana Gold. I have a deal here in my office, and I need a foreign partner to execute it with my colleague and me. We over-invoiced a contract payment valued at US$100 million. We awarded contracts for the supply and maintenance of all the Gold field and mining equipment for the national gold mines to some foreign contractors valued at US$5 billion, which we over-invoiced by US$100 million in addition to the total contract sum.
Most contractors have been paid, and the remaining contractors’ payments are currently being processed for payment. With that, my colleague and I have decided to include you among these remaining contractors to process the sum of US$100 million in your company or in your name to claim it for our mutual benefit. I am writing to inform you that you have been selected as the subcontractor to supply heavy mining equipment for the recent overhauling of the refineries and mining sites, valued at US$100 million.
I will advise you to furnish me with your personal information, including your cell phone number and the name of your company with address, to enable me to register it with our corporate affairs commission in charge of allied and companies registration as an indigenous company.
Any foreign company must be registered in this country. Also, with your acceptance to execute this business with me, I need to be sure of your confidentiality regarding the conclusion of this deal. you will be given 30% of the total amount, while my colleague and I will take 70% once the money gets into your company account in your country. Also, with my position here, I can officially arrange with you to lift 140 or 200 Kilograms of gold per month by getting a one-year or two-year Gold allocation contract in your name and company name, whether you are here or not. With this, we can make more money from the Gold lifting here in Ghana. I will detail more on this once I get your response.
Thank you, and hope to hear from you as soon as possible. Send me your cell phone number or Email to call you for more details.
Best Regards
