private account and for investment purpose. I am Mrs. MARY MOYA the wife of
late Mr. JOHN MOYA., who was the chairman of the farmers co-operation in
Zimbabwe. MY Husband was among the few blacks that were murdered in cold
blood by the president Robert Mugabe Administration during the land dispute
that just happened in Zimbabwe. After the death of my husband, my three
children and I decided to move out of ZIMBABWE because our lives were in
danger because of the money that my husband kept in his hidden safe in our
house.
The amount contained in the safe $30, 000,000(THIRTY MILLION UNITED STATES
DOLLARS). This money was meant for the purchase of new machines and
chemicals for the farms and establishment of new farms in Swaziland. After
the death of my husband we moved to South Africa and deposited this money in
a SECURITY COMPANY in a box as valuables belonging to our foreign partner
pending when we see somebody that will assist us, for the safety of our
life. I have concluded arrangement with the board of trustees of the
Security Company to transfer the deposit to oversea country where it will be
easily accessible to my children and me. This frame of mind is to ensure the
fund safety because of political instability in Africa in general and for
hitch free redeeming / transferring of our money to a safe bank account, and
the company informed us that they can only transfer such value / volume of
deposit to the following continents (Europe, Asia, Arabian and American).
Where they informed that have affiliate office. The idea involving you in
this transaction is for you to assist me receive this deposit as final
receiver / beneficiary in any of the countries as they may inform and assist
me in transferring this money to your overseas account for investment
purposes outside African continent for my family and me. I have also decided
to move some one from my side to meet with you in the Country in order that
both of you can successfully handle this transaction for me to fruition upon
establishing trust, the code / password for release will equally be handed
over to whosoever coming from my side to meet with you for easy claim of
deposit by both of you without difficulty.
We are presently in South Africa as Refugee (Asylum Seekers) we are ready to
give you 30% of the total amount for the inconveniences this we cost you and
for accepting to assist us, contact me on the any of the above address
provided, and indicating your interest as soon as possible, on receiving of
your acceptance, I shall be glad to give you more clarification on the
modalities needed for smooth successful completion of this transaction. As a
result of my husbands untimely death I suffered a severe health problem,
which has placed me on bed rest for some month now. So my eldest son in
person of Mr. JOHN MOYA will be communicating with you further on how to go
about the transaction, as you will show wiliness in assisting us. On
telephone number +27 834831409.
