FROM MRS VIVIAN NDLOVU
ATTN
Dear Friend,
You may be surprised to receive this letter from me since you don't know me personally, but for the introduction, I am MRS VIVIAN NDLOVU, the wife of Late DR.ONOMUA ANDREW NDLOVU who was recently murdered in the land dispute in Zimbabwe. My Husband was among the few black Zimbabwe rich farmers murdered in the cold blood by the agents of the ruling government of President Robert MUGABE for his alleged support and sympathy for the Zimbabwean opposition party, controlled by the white minority. Before his death, he had taken me to deposit the some amount of money with a security and finance company as if he knew the looming danger in Zimbabwe. The money was deposited in a security company as undisclosed items under diplomatic classification and clearance. This land problem arose when president Robert MUGABE introduced a new land act, which wholly affected the rich white farmers and some blacks vehemently condemned the modusoperand"adopted by the government. This resulted to rampant killings. Heads of governmen t from the west, especially The Great Britain and The United states of America have voice their condemnation of MUGABE'S plan. The South Africa development community (SADEC) has continuously supported MUGABE'S new land reform Act. It is against this background that I and my Children who are currently staying as REFUGEE in BOSTWANA.I have decided to transfer my late Husband's money into a foreign account. As the only and LEGITIMATE -WIFE of my late husband I am saddled with the responsibility of seeking a genuine foreign account where this money could be transfer without the knowledge of my country's government who are tactically freezing our families wealth back home in ZIMBABWE and The South Africa government seems to be playing along with them. I am seeking for Assistance. As a businessperson whom I must entrust my future and that of my family on his hands, I must let you know that this transfer is RISK FREE. Therefore if you accept to assist my family, we are willing to offer you 20% of the total sum for your assitance, 70% for my family, and me while 10% will be mapped out for all expenses. I would wish to invest in your country, I would also receive assurance that you wouldn’t sit on this money when transferred into your personal or company account. If this PLEA is acceptable by you please do send me your personal details, Name and Address, telephone and fax numbers. I hope to hear from you soon on the email address bellow.

Thanks
Best Regards,
MRS VIVIAN NDLOVU.
