Dear Sir,
I know you will be surprised to receive this letter from me, but please
this letter is a request from a family in dare need of assistance. I am
Mr. MAWA MAZURI from Angola the first, and only son of Brigadier Bulu Mazuri
communicating to you from Johannesburg, Republic of South Africa.
I got your name and address from a business desk in chamber of commerce
and industry in Johannesburg. And I on behalf of my widowed mother Mrs.
Anne Mazuri, decided to solicit for your assistance to transfer the sum
of US$32.5millio(thirty two million, five hundred thousand United States
dollars only) inherited from my late father into your personal or company's
account. Before his death, he was Brigadier in charge of arms and ammunition
procurement for the Angolan Army. In his "will" he specifically draw my
attention to US$32.5 million (thirty two million, five hundred thousand
United States dollars only) which he deposited in a box for private security
company in johannesburg South Africa, IN FACT I QUOTE" My beloved son, I
wish to draw your attention to US$32.5 million (thirty two million, five
hundred thousand United States dollars only). I deposited the box containing
the fund in a security company in Johannesburg, South Africa as valuables.
During the war I was very dedicated and committed to winning the war against
the rebel unit. I found out that the senior army officers and
government functionaries were busy helping themselves with government fund
and properties,sending them to foreign countries. Due to this, when I and
the former special adviser to the president were assigned by the president
(Jose Eduardo Santos) to purchase arms in South Africa, we saw this as a
golden opportunity and diverted the money and shared it, of which I got
a total sum of US$32.5 million (thirty two million, five hundred thousand
United State dollars only).In case of my absence and on earth as a result
of death, only you should solicit for the assistance of a reliable and sincere
foreign partner to assist you transfer this money out of South Africa for
investment purpose.
I deposited the box in your name and you can claim it alone with deposit
code. Your mother is with all the documents. Take good care of
mother and your two sisters. Do not disappoint me! Bye! >From this word
of my late father, you will understand that lives and future of my family
depend on this fund as such.
I will be grateful if you can assist us. We are now living in South Africa
refugee camp, as political asylum seekers, financial laws and
regulation of South Africa does not permit us certain financial right.
In view of this, I cannot invest this fund in South Africa hence; I am seeking
your assistance to transfer this fund out of South Africa for investment
purpose. For your effort, we are prepared to offer you 25% of the total
fund while 10% will be set aside for any expenses incurred during this transaction.
Please, note that this transaction is 100% risk free and the major thing
I demand from you is to assure me the safety of this money when
it finally gets to you. Further information and arrangement will commence
as soon as trust confidence and good relationship is established.I shall
be most grateful if you maintain the
confidentiality of this matter.
Bear in mind before given your respond or reply that you will be required
to come down here for the signing of all the legal documents
which shall be presented to you by the Directors of the security company
before the consignment will be handed over to you.
You are also expected to open a non-residential Bank account for the purposes
of depositing the fund. Hence this money is still in the Trunk Box with
the security company and the security company does not know the real contents
of the box therefore we are not going to let them know this for they may
ask us to open the box in their present which I will not like them to do
so hence my late father did not allow them to do so when he was alive.
As soon as you arrive, an accredited lawyer will be appointed to assist
us to open the account where this money will be wired into and from there
you can ask or authorize the Bank to re-transfer the total money into your
personal or company?s account as the case may be.
After signing the legal documents and the Trunk Boxes is claimed, wenshall
higher bullion van or motor that will carry the consignment down
to the Hotel where you lodge or to the Bank where the non- residential
account is opened and lodge the whole money then I will follow you back
to your country for the sharing of the money and for the onward investment
of the fund with your able assistance and supervision. This is all we need
from you and please endeavor to maintain the confidentialities of this humble
appeal for avoid public awareness for too many hands spoils the Soup.
Please, confirm your interest immediately by sending to me your private
telephone and fax number for communication. You are strictly advised to
reply through this Email Addres :mazuri@mail.bulgaria.com
