Subject: CLARION CALL FROM Grace Ndlovu.
Dear; sir/madam,
This letter may come to you as a surprise, but be assured it is in good
faith from a family in dire need of help. I am Mrs. Grace Ndlovu. I got
your contact through a career diplomat whom I consulted in my search for a
reasonable/reliable individual who could assist my son (Richard Ndlovu) in
transferring a reasonable sum of money abroad into a company or personal
account for investment purposes.
During the current war crisis against the farmers in Zimbabwe, which was
supported by President Robert Mugabe because of his envy and greediness to
claim all the white and some black owned farms for his party members and his
followers, he ordered all white farmers and few black farmers to
surrender all their farms (lands) to his party members and followers.
My husband (Mr.Dube Ndlovu of a blessed memory) owned one of the best cattle
farms in our country by then and because he did not Support Robert Mugabe
ideas, Militants encamped on his cattle ranch farm in Mvurwi region,150
kilometers (94 miles) northeast of Harare. This act was to buttress what the
president said.
We are no longer going to ask for the land, but we are going to take it
without negotiating," Mugabe ordered his supporters to invaded my husband?s
farm in Mvurwi region, and burnt everything in the farm in as much as
killing my beloved husband and made away with a lot of items in my husband?s
farm,19 Feb 2001,around 3.30 PM) My husband was a former lawmaker in
the white-dominated parliament of Rhodesia, as Zimbabwe was known before
independence, and
served,as an independent lawmaker along with 20 whites as 20 seats was
reserved for whites for the first seven years of independence.
He was an outspoken critic of President Robert Mugabe's ruling party.
Mugabehas described the farm occupation as "a justified protest against
unfair land Ownership by whites and few blacks". Before my husband?s death
he deposited the sum of US$10 M, (Ten Million United States Dollars) in
a Security Company in South Africa under cover as gem stones, this was for
fear of President
Mugabe and his government as he foresaw the looming danger in Zimbabwe.
This money is for the opening of the new 265 Acres of land in Shiselweni
Village near Umbuluzi River in Swaziland, which my husband was negotiating
to buy with the help of the Swaziland Monarch King Mswati iii. In my
husband's will, he stated,"I did this for you (Bob) because as a father I
noticed
that there is no future for my family in Zimbabwe.
I deposited the sum of US$ 10 M. with a security company in South Africa,go
to South Africa and Seek for the assistance of a foreign partner who will
help in transferring the fund out of South Africa for investment purposes.
Please do not disappoint me, God bless you". After my husband?s funeral,my
son (Richard) left for South Africa where my husband deposited the money in
the Security Company, he cannot open an account in South Africa because of
his refugee status according to SECTION 22 OF THE REFUGEE ACT NO 13 OF 1998.
In view of this, I decided to seek assistance for my son in transferring the
fund abroad. On acceptance of this proposal, we have two options for you,
(A) firstly you can choose to have a certain percentage of the money for
nominating your account for this transaction, in this case we are prepared
to offer you 25% of the total fund. (B) Or you can go into partnership
with my son for a proper profitable investment of the money in your country.
Whichever the option you want, feel free to notify my son or me. We have
also mapped out 5%, to repay for expenses that may be incurred by both
parties in the course of the transaction while the remaining 70% are for my
son's investment. From the words of my husband you will discover that the
contineous existence of this family depends on this money, this is why we
need an
assurance from you that this fund will be safe when transferred to your
country.
Lastly, I am assuring you that this transaction is free of risk but I must
not fail to inform you that it requires absolute confidentiality for
security purposes.
