I'm not so sure that the real origin is Australia.
Even if it is, he claims to be auditor in Europe...

CONFIDENTIAL
Request for Confidential Business Relationship
It is my great pleasure to write you this letter. I am an Auditor in one of the Europe’s leading bank.
Please excuse my intrusion into your life because I send this mail in good faith, I know that a transaction of this magnitude and what you are about to read will make you apprehensive and worried. I have decided to seek a confidential co-operation with you in the execution of the deal hereunder. I and two other colleagues are seeking to use your identity to transfer the sum of Sixteen Million, Five Hundred Thousand U.S. dollars. The said fund have been inactive for some years now and careful investigation proved the original depositor of the fund died five years ago and all attempt to reach the suppose beneficiary of the deposit were fruitless and before it is forfeited to the State Treasure, we decided to move it.
We intend to include the bills for approvals with the Department of Finance and the Payment Verification Committee (P.V.C). So we are seeking your assistance to front you as beneficiary of the unclaimed funds, since we are not allowed to operate foreign accounts. Details and change of beneficiary information upon application for claim to reflect payment and approvals will be secured on your behalf.
What I am requesting from you is: (1) to be our partner and receive the funds as the sole benefactor to the said amount which we shall secure all legal documentation to authenticate this claim. (2) Receive the funds as the beneficiary, take out your commission and keep the rest of the money until I arrive there to meet you after the transfer is completed.
The business is completely safe and secure, provided you treat it with utmost confidentiality. A transfer of powers will be secured in favour.
Also, your area of specialization is not a hindrance to the successful execution of this transaction. I have reposed my confidence in you and hope that you will not disappoint us.
After you receive the funds, it would be shared as follows: (1) 30% to you as commission for your co-operation and assistance in facilitating the transfer, while the remaining 70% belongs to me and two colleagues. You will be free to take out your commission immediately after the money hits your account in your country. Since our objective is to invest the money in a foreign country, it would be appreciated if you could also help us with advices and for an additional 3%. In the process, I would ask you to also help us to identify various investment opportunities in your country.
Let me have your direct telephone number where I can call you to discuss further. I look forward to receiving a response to my private email box, [email protected] from you at your earliest convenience.
Yours truly,
Mr. Scott Brown
