URGENT BUSINESS PROPOSAL
Dear Sir,
I know you will be surprise to read from me, but please consider this letter
as request from a family in dire need for your assistance. Firstly i must
introduce myself. I am Mr. Frank Camaro from zimbabwe; I am the first and
only son of Mr. DANIEL Camaro I am presently residing in South Africa.
I got your contact from the SOUTH AFRICAN INFORMATION EXCHANGE (S.A.I.E.) in
Johannesburg and On behalf of my mother who is a widow Mrs.ANGELA Camaro I
decided to solicit for your assistance to transfer the sum of FOURTEEN
MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND U.S. DOLLARS ONLY (US$14,500,000.00) in your
personal or company, s account. Before my fathers death he was among the few
black Zimbabwean rich farmers and he was poisoned by the agent of the ruling
government of President ROBERT MUGABE for his alleged support and sympathy
for the Zimbabwe opposition party controlled by the white minority. Before
his death he had taken me to Johannesburg to deposit this money to a
security and finance company.
This money was deposited in a box as gemstone to avoid much emurrage from
the security company. This money was earmarked for purchase of new machinery
and chemicals for the farms and to establish new farms
in Lesotho and Swaziland. In his will he specially drew my attention to this
sum of FOURTEEN MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND U.S. DOLLARS ONLY
(US$14,500,000.00) that he deposited in a safe box in a private security and
finance company here in Johannesburg South Africa.
IN FACT MY FATHER SAID IN HIS WILL AND QUOTE: My beloved son, I wish to draw
your attention to this money which I deposited in your name in a box with a
security and finance company in Johannesburg, South
Africa. In case of my absence on earth caused by death. You should solicit
for a reliable foreign partner to assist you to transfer his money out of
South Africa for investment purpose.
>From the above, you will understand that the live and future of my family
depends on this money as much. I will be grateful if you can assist us. We
are now living in South Africa as Asylum seekers and financial laws of South
Africa does not allow Asylum seekers certain right to such huge amount of
money.
In view of this, I cannot invest this money in South Africa; hence I am
asking you to assist me to transfer this money out of South Africa for
investment purpose. For your efforts, I am prepared to offer you 20% of the
total fund. While 5% will be set aside for
local and international expenses and 75% will be kept by my family and me.
Finally modalities on how the transfer will be done and conveyed to you once
we establish trust and confidence between ourselves.
Looking forward to your reply and please treat as very
urgent.
Best regards
Mr. Frank Camaro
(FOR THE FAMILY)
