ATTN: SIR / MADAM,
I am Mrs.RITA MONGO, wife of late MICHEAL MONGO who was murdered by the Zimbabwean veterans and irrate black people.Before the death of my husband on the 29th of Oct 2003, he was a Properous Tobacco and Coffee farmer in Zimbabwe and one of the major sponsor/ Financier of the opposition party - Movement For Democratic Change(MDC)in Zimbabwe. He was also the former president of Farmers Co-operative Trade Union in Zimbabwe.
I am writing you from Johanessburg,South Africa. I got your contact
email address through the South African International Information Exchange Centre and decided to write you. I write to solicit for your special assistance to a family shattered by a tyrannical government led by the dictator President ROBERT MUGABE and his(ZANU-PF) ruling party.
I am probably of the convinction that you are aware of the present
situation in my country Zimbabwe sequel to the land and farm land crisis in Zimbabwe, the government secretly sponsored the war veterans and some irrate party members to disposes the land being occupied by whites and some rich farmers who are opposed to his consistent stay in power and his radical and unnecessary reforms targeted at his political opponents.
This action has led to the killing of some members of the opposition
party including my husband(MICHEAL MONGO),who did not support this ill-fated action. But before the death of my husband and the consistent threats to his life, he anticipated some dangers and so he smuggled out the sum of US$25.m(TWENTY FIVE Million United States Dollars), to South Africa since it is the nearest neighbouring country and deposited it in a security company with the intention of using it for the purchase of New farm machinery and chemicals for Agricultural purposes in South Africa as well as a purchase of some hectares of land in swaziland.
On the 29th Oct, 2003, the war veterans and some supporters of
(ZANU-PF) ruling party trooped into our compound and axed him(my husband) to death.
Since then, they have been terrorizing my only son, MICHEAL (JR) but I
succeeded to work for his escape to a neighbouring country, South
Africa as a political asylum seeker (refugee). But his position in South Africa does not permit him to open an account or normalise this fund for any meaningful business transaction in south Africa since He does not have a south Africa Identity Card. That is why I want this fund to be transferred into your Norminated account so that you will assist him to invest it in your country.
Hence,if you agree to assist us, we have two options for you, we have
agreed to go into partnership with you and your family or in the alternatve, we offer you 20%of the money for your assistance, 5% will be for the possible expenses incurred in the process of this transaction,
while 75%will be for our family investment in your country,through your
assistance.
I want you to understand that this fund is purely a family fund/ money
and not drug money, nor could it be classified as government fund or Money Laundering affairs and it could be substanciated by relevant authorties by our attorney.
It is Family fund but termed confidential because I do not want my son
to be traced to where he is presently. If you are interested in assisting us, kindly contact my son or myself with this email
ritmoongo@yahoo.co.in address,and the telephone number above.
Right now, I am presently in south Africa with MICHEAL(JR) my son and the whole of my family sequel to the tensed political situation and the fear for our lives in Zimbabwe. I need your urgent and confidential response.
Thanks. Best regards
Mrs:RITA MONGO
