My name is Patrick Peterside,the auditor and head of computing department of a bank here in Africa. I have contacted you in order to transfer out $15,000,000.00(Fifteen Million Dollars) from our bank. I have summoned-up courage to seek a capable and worthy person to handle a transaction of this magnitude, with the belief that he or she will display honesty in full.
There is an account which was opened in this bank in 1995,and since my inception into office in 2001,this account has been static and unoperational.After going through some old files, I discovered that if I do not remit this money out urgently, the money will be forfeited. I know that this message will raise your curiosity and may appear to you as a surprise.But be sure that it is a real and genuine business.
I will use my position and influence on other staffs to effect the legal approvals and onward transfer of this money to your account with the appropriate clearance from the foreign payment department. This transaction can be concluded within fourteen banking days starting from the day our application is received. Needless to say, the trust and bond reposed on you at this juncture is great. In return, 30% of the transferred sum would be for you, 65% for me, while the remaining 5% will be set aside to settle expenses both parties might incur during the transfer process. Please reply me immediately and indicate your interest by sending me your full name and address, telephone and fax numbers for better communication. Thanks,
*A language school head who killed his domineering wife with a single punch to her jaw and then cut up her body with an electric saw was jailed for a total of five years yesterday. Paul Dalton, from Kingston, Surrey, was cleared of murdering Tae Hui but was convicted of manslaughter at the Old Bailey on Friday.
During the trial, the jury heard he had chopped his wife's body into nine pieces, which he stored in a kitchen freezer *before fleeing to Japan.
Dalton maintained he accidentally killed his Korean-born wife after suffering years of torment and provocation. She had treated him like a slave, the court heard. "She always got what she wanted. I was scared of her. Everyone was scared of her," he said. She was just saying she married me for the visa," he said.
The prosecution alleged that Dalton meant to dump the body parts in the sea or river Thames, * but lost his nerve and fled to Japan.
Dalton, a teetotal computer specialist, met his wife in 1994. He told the court she was domineering and controlling. "She always wanted to be in control," he said, adding that she once stole his passport to stop him getting away from her. They married in 1997. Over time, she bullied him at work, and denied him a wage from a business he had set up, he claimed.
