Subject: MY BUSINESS OFFER
Mrs. Rose Bangra hamenya.
Blk. 2681, HLM II,
Dakar - Senegal.
Hello dear,
Compliments of the season. I am Mrs. Rose Bangura Hamenya, a civil
servant from Zimbabwe. I got your contact from Chamber and Commerce
office as I was searching for someone who will help me out of my present
predicament,
My late husband, Mr. Ransome Gatorgay Hamenya was the co-owner of
an Agricultural firm and his partner happens to be among the white
farmers that the dictator President of Zimbabwe, Robert Mugabe took over
their farmlands and handed over to the blacks, despite all the pleas from
the International Community,and members of the commonwealth country's
Most of the company's assets,animal farms and milk industry were seized
and confiscated by the tyrant President.
My late husband was a British citizen of African descent and we
both lived in the company's staff quarters but our lives were threatened
by agents of President Mugabe. Since then, my husband and I have been
living in exile in Dakar - Senegal. My husband died last August as a
result of cardiac arrest.
A substential amount of money was deposited in the finance house
by my husband before his death through the help of the International Red
Cross staff, because President Mugabe, placed order for the closure of
the accounts of all the white farmers and no one is allowed to transfer
more than ten thousand dollars abroad but luckily enough, I and my late
husband along with some other farmers were assisted through diplomatic
means with the help of the International Red Cross to send our money
abroad.
The total Sum is FIFTEEN million US dollars (US$15.000.000.),
the money is part of our savings and what my husband inherited from
his late father, from whom we took over the family business. All the
documents to the deposition of the money are with me and with the
finance firm also for Security reasons.
I would like you to assist me to relocate the money to your country
into any account of your choice or keep it for me in your safe custody
until I am able to come to your country after my operation soon. I
would like to invest the money into any lucrative business, you deem
profitable and your assistance is highly needed in the areas of investment
feasibility studies.
Hence I need your cooperation to secure this deposit which is as
it stands now, the only hope of my survival as I have already lost my
husband, coupled with my sickness and the situation of insecurity. Life
is no more the same with me after all the lot I have gone
through.Moreover, I wouldn't mind paying you any amount you will charge me up to 15% of the total money for your assistance in relocating and keeping the
money for me as well as helping me to carry out proper investment. You
keep 85% for me pending execution of the investment.
As a sick person, it will be difficult to handle this alone, hence
I need your immense help, coupled with your distinguished business
acumen and track record. Please, I would like you to come to my assistance,
I am a lonely widow and in utter confusion and distress.
This business is solely between two of us and should there be any
need for a third party, I will contact one of the Red Cross staff with
whom I have established some trust. I am scared that if any one gets to
know about this, he might take advantage of my helpless situation. to
diverte this fund or seat on the money without helping me to manageit as
planed,so please if your willing to help kindly contact me through my
email above. ( My son's Alternative email id ; ( papis_prince@hotmail.com )
Sincerely your's,
Mrs. Rose Bangura Hamenya.
