My dear,
I am Mrs. Rosemary Border Gezi, the wife of Comrade Border Gezi, who was the former Zimbabwean Minister for youth, gender and Employment creation. While alive, my husband stood against seizure of white farms and its distribution to the blacks without compensation to the white owners.
First and foremost, I apologized using this medium to reach you for a transaction / business of this magnitude, but this is due to confidentiality and prompt access reposed on this medium. In unfolding this proposal, I want to count on you, as a respected and honest person to handle this transaction with sincerity, trust and confidentiality. I have decided to seek a confidential co-operation with you in the execution of the transaction described hereunder for the benefit of all parties involved and hope you will keep it as a top secret because of the nature of this transaction.
Because of what is happening in the world today and to verify my predicaments as well as my sincerity, I would like you to visit the site below to read more about my late husband.

Because of my husband’s sincerity, he was killed by a planned motor accident along Harare-Masvingo Road near Mvuma Province of Zimbabwe. But before his untimely death, my husband told me some few weeks earlier that he kept a box with a private Security and finance Company in Johannesburg, South Africa which contains US$20.5 Million (Twenty million, five hundred thousand United States dollars). He warned that he only declared the contents of the box to the Security and finance Company as family treasure / valuables, with insurance values of the said amount. He also told me that he used my son’s name as the beneficiary of this money being his first child.
The original document that shows the Deed of lodge, Proof of Deposit, and Depository Agreement between my late husband and the Management of the Security Company are with me.
After my husband’s death, I ran to South Africa with my Son and little daughter to seek asylum for our lives. Because of the South African financial law which prohibits asylum seekers/refugees like my children and I to open bank account or involve in any financial transaction, I decided to write to you to seek your assistance for this money to be transferred into your company or personal bank account while all arrangement for a hitch free transfer have been fully taken care of. I have the authority of my family to propose that should you be willing to assist us in this transaction your share of compensation will be US$5.125m (25%), while my family takes US$13.325m (65%) and the balance of US$2.5m (10%) for miscellaneous expenses that may be incurred by either party during the transfer.
I want to let you know that this transaction is 100% risk free provided you treat it with utmost confidentiality because the Zimbabwean Government are bent on collecting all assets / properties belonging to my late husband. Please endeavor to call me or my Son (Benson) via our family telephone number +27-73-108-9139 to acknowledge the receipt of this email and for more confidential reason, reply me via my private email address indicated above. Remember to include your direct telephone and fax numbers in your reply.
Finally, I do hope of establishing a good relationship with you and your family after this transaction. I wait to hear from you.
Yours faithfully,
Rosemary Gezi. (Mrs.)
