DEAR SIR/MADAM
REQUEST FOR URGENT AND CONFIDENTIAL ASSISTANCE.
I wish to introduce my good self as Mr Charles Marzini . The elder son of
Joseph Marzini of Zimbabwe. This might be a surprise to you where I got your

I wa s convinced to solicit for your assistance after much prayers. I am
interested in doing business with you, particularly, in joint venture in
your country on lucrative business. During the current war against the farmers
in Zimbabwe from the support of our President ROBERT MUGABE to claim all
the white and black farms in our country, so he ordered all the white and
black farmers to surrender all their farms to his party members and his followers,
and my father was one of the best farmers in our country, because he did
not support the his idea, his supporters invaded my father's farm and burnt
everything in the farm and killed my father and confiscated all his investment.
After the death of my father, I decided to move out of Zimbabwe because my
life is still in danger, with the little money my father kept in his hidden
safe in my mother's house I decided to leave for South Africa because i had
knowledge of a particular deposit which my father made in my name into a
private security and finance company, since he does not have any account
with any bank due to illiteracy but was successful in farm production. The
amount contained in the metal box/container which he deposited with the private
security company is worth US$15.5(Fifteen Million Five Hundred Thousand United
States Dollars) and I have decided to move with the money with your assistance
as and I am currently forced to seek a political asylum as refugee.
I was advised by a banker who had agreed to help in the depositing and transferring
of this fund to seek for a reliable foreign partner who is going to assist
me in the opening of a non-resident account here which he advised is the
best possible way of transferring this fund because of
my political status .He said it will be more convenient pending when I get
reliable some body that will assist receive the fund in his foreign safe
account and at the same time give me light of investment based on business
idea/knowledge you may have.
However, my aim of contacting you is to help me look for a profitable investment
overseas. As a result of my present status and as a refugee I will not be
able to conclude this transaction alone. If you are interested in helping
me out, try and contact me with above e-mail address or phone number indicating
your interest to help me. I will then furnish you with more details . I have
mutually agreed to compensate you with 20% which is your share for assistance,
and 5% for any expenses that may incure in the course of the transaction.
Then the remaining 75% will be for me and my family, which you will help
us to invest in your country. Be informed that this transaction need utmost
trust and confidentiality and will only take about 2-3 working days to be
concluded, note also that this transaction attract no risk on you side hence
all the modalities is safe, smooth successful transaction has been arranged
by me and the banker who will asisssist us in this business.
