From khumalo1@ecplaza.net Mon, 22 Jul 2002 16:22:14 Date: Mon, 22 Jul 2002 16:22:14 From: MAKA KUMALO khumalo1@ecplaza.net Subject: [cpia] CAPE REQUEST FROM: MR.MAKA KHUMALO  Sir, CONFIDENTIAL BUSI NESS REQUEST. It is indeed my pleasure to write to you this letter, which I believe will be a surprise to you, as we are both complete strangers. I actually found your email address at the trade and email directory listings here in Pretoria, South Africa. I work at the Ministry of Minerals and Energy in South Africa as the chief accountant and have the mandate of two senior colleagues to search discreetly and diligently for a foreign partner that could assist us concerning a business matter, which will be of mutual benefit to all. We do require your assistance in the transfer of US$12,300,000 (Twelve million, three hundred thousand, United States Dollars). This fund emanate from over invoiced contract amount that was executed for my Ministry by a mining company, which is undergone liquidation. Although the actual contract amount was paid to the company, the over invoiced amount of US$12,300,000 has since been lying in the Ministry's escrow account at the Reserve Bank of South Africa pending proper proof of claim, Am privy to this classified information by virtue of my position in the ministry. However we are unable to proceed alone with this transaction, because the civil service code of conduct laws strictly prohibits us from engaging in private business or operating any foreign account, hence my search for a foreigner whose company and account (business or private), we can use to transfer the money. We already have the approved proof of claim and evidence of this contract in our possession, while soliciting for a reliable and committed foreign partner to act as front. The basis of this transaction is that the assets of the liquidated Mining company, which won the contract from my ministry is being acquired by your company and we shall arrange all the necessary documentation in conjunction with one of the ex- directors of the closed mining company. Acquisition of company is a very common practice here in my country and the officials responsible for documentation have been settled on this matter. Please note that this transaction is 100% risk free and we shall abide strictly to all the legal procedures as contained in our laws and international laws in transferring the fund.  I ask that you keep this communication strictly confidential, as the two senior officials involved are very highly placed government functionaries and would not like to be exposed. Please go through this letter carefully and if you are interested in assisting us, kindly notify me urgently via my email address, as time is of the essence in this transaction. Upon your acceptance to assist us I shall provide you with more detailed information on procedures and also negotiate your percentage with you for your assistance.  Thank you and God Bless, as I wait for your urgent response, My Sincere Regards.  MR.MAKA KHUMALO   From wpilinux4oems@sixnet-io.com Tue, 23 Jul 2002 22:56:57 -0400 Date: Tue, 23 Jul 2002 22:56:57 -0400 From: llrqlinux4oems wpilinux4oems@sixnet-io.com Subject: [cpia] ISA Article on Embedded Real-Time Linux Automation Applications . dpcek Industrial LINUX News: The June issue of the ISA's InTech Magazine has an interesting article on how truly open Linux applications can lower development cost and increase the performance and reliability of industrial automation.
