ATTN: MD/CEO,
URGENT AND CONFIDENTIAL
I am Pastor GOODNESS MOKENA, the first son of Late LUFUNO MOKENA. I am a
citizen of Swaziland. My father was the OWNER/MANAGING DIRECTOR of Lufuno
Aluminium Company in Swaziland but very unfortunately he died in the year
2003 after a protracted illness. Due to poor management of the company in
my country and for the fact that I am so dedicated to church activities,
I realized that I will be unable to manage the company and so soon it may
wind up . I also realized that I am too young to manage a large company
of that type and most of the directors have already began to divert the
net profit being generated from the company,I therefore arranged with my
father's lawyer and sold the entire company to Mr. Alan Foster from ALASKA
at the price of US$15.5000 (Fifteen Million, Five Hundred Thousand Dollars)
Due to constant pressure from some of my relatives and also fear of likely
attack on my family to hijack the fund, I arranged with my mother and a
lawyer from South Africa to transfer the fund into a security company in
Johannesburg,South Africa where I am currently staying with my mother and
other two younger sisters. However, I am into pastorial activities now and
I have most of my time dedicated to church activities.
At the moment, we want to transfer the fund to oversea country for investment
because there is no good investment atmosphere here in South Africa. I therefore
need your assistance to enable me transfer the fund into your private/company's
account over there so that we can relocate to plan for the investment of
the fund through your personal assistance. I mostly need your assistance
in investing the fund because I have little experience of investment/management
of the fund. It is also my plan that after the successful transfer of the
fund into your account there, I will first relocate my mother and other
2 sisters to stay with you while I will first travel to United States of
America to complete my theological school.
What I mostly need from you is honest and sincerity because this fund is
my life and the life of my family. If you can assist us in this transaction,
I will give you 25% of the total fund while 75% will remain in your account
for 2 years to enable me complete my school and then join my other relatives
to plan for our family investments.
Please, be assured that this transaction is 100% risk free,but you must
keep it confidential. If you can assist us,kindly send me an urgent email
to this address :mokenafamily@patmail.com to indicate your interest. While
you can still call me anytime on :+27-73-7816193
I await your soonest response
Truely Yours
Pastor Goodness Mokena
