So both Fanie Fondse and Tokyo Sexwale were acting for Spiritual White Boy Trust.

According to his letter from Aug 2018, filed as part of his affidavit in Feb 2020, Fondse "managed to prevent several attempted thefts from same trust accounts."

Did these trustees not speak? 🤔
Its clear that Fondse (left) and Sexwale (right) are talking about the same accounts/funds. So why don't they know each other if both are trustees/mandate holders?

Also...duplicated account numbers (ABSA/FNB, left) look bad.
Here Fondse refers to a Standard Bank "satement" for the White Spiritual Boy Trust as proof of payment.

(That is a weird spelling mistake on computer agenerated printout...)

This same "satements" circulated on 4Chan in 2018 but with a "Five Star Trust" / Eliahi Priest watermark
Another document, heavily relied on for "proof", misspells "The White Hous" and a whole US Treasury Official signed on the wrong page.

(Almost like the margins screwed up its placement after the electronically edited document was saved...)
So why does Five Star Trust sound familiar? As @JvanLogg pointed out yesterday, the account number Sexwale "revealed" yesterday was linked to a Five Star Trust scam.

(Yes, that is the PIN for a $42m account, in a letter)

(Lol. Fondse signed off his correspondence with "The Man With The Brown Jacket" which tracks with his email address: diemanmetdiebruinbaadjie1@[xxxx].[xxx]

Someone fashions himself a James Bourne / Jannie Borman)
Alongside the wonky Standard Bank "satement", other "evidence" confirming payment is the fact that DIRCO supported a diplomatic visit to Indonesia.

Also, a wonky Youtube video narrated by a robot voice "confirms" the money came from the Phillipines (so, not Indonesia anymore).
The origin of the video seems 100% legit.

(Narrator: it doesn't.)
Fondse attached a mandate letter he relies on to act as representative for this money. (Remember, Sexwale is also a mandate holder ne?)

Weirdly, a local "foundation" using the same name was created as early as January 2017, 18 months before Fondse was "appointed".
This "Sansaimon B Muri Foundation Pty Ltd" shares a premises with "SBM Private Equity Fund Pty Ltd", another organisation Fondse is linked to as a former director.

They share more than just an address - notably the directors.
This thing is a rabbithole inside rabbitholes. Neither Sexwale nor Fondse provide proof of actual transfer - its all vague references to unverified documents found online that "support" "some" "payments".

From Fondse's own affidavit, he can't even verify the donor's identity.
My guess is either someone was duped into genuinely believing any of this is real, or its part of a larger con: build up "credibility" through targeting the right people (Sexwale) and then start crowdfunding to pursue these funds.
I didn't even bother to check this, but another valid point: https://twitter.com/Moniqueweits/status/1385565242944630788
