Date: Mon, 6 Jun 2005 11:54:53 +0200
Subject: A proposal for you,
Dear Sir,
I have a proposal for you, this however is not mandatory nor will i in any manner compel you to honour it against your will.
I am Ezra Nkomo. A Citizen of Zimbabwe, but I am contacting you from GERMANY here in EUROPE where I am now seeking political asylum.
I am the only son of Mr. Kenneth Nkomo,a wealthy farmer and Senior politician with the opposition political party in my country;Movement for Democratic Change [MDC]. My father was murdered by our wicked President,Robert Mugabe and I fled my country because I have become his next target for elimination.
My father was a fighter for Justice and a moving force in the MDC party;a party wanting to end the several years of brutal Dictatorship of President Robert Mugabe. You can read more stories about President Mugabe’s brutal acts by visiting this web sites;

My father was accused of Treason and also assisting the White farmers in fighting the government. Few weeks after his arrest,he was reported dead. The government claimed he died of heart attack and his body was never seen for proper autopsy,they buried him in the government owned cemetery.
My father's associate Mr. Martin Olds; a White farmer from Britain assisted me in fighting my father's death through the Court and media. The government saw us as a big treat to them and decided to eliminate us.
Mr. Olds was attacked and murdered in his house,but fortunately,before they came looking for me,i received the news and had to flee through the border to South Africa to save my life. My arrival here in GERMANY still remains like a miracle to me.
Here is my reasons for contacting you,I am having a huge Sum of money total $13.6Million(USD)presently lodge with a Security company in ABDIJAN,COTE D´IVOIRE. My father kept this money in one trunk boxe in disguise as family treasures and Could not bank them,because of the situation in my Country. My father's business, farms and banks account were Seized by the government before his arrest and murder.
He told me everything concerning the funds while he was still in detention and I have made several arrangements concerning the shipment of the box out of Cote D`Ivoire because we cannot invest it there. I was on the process when i fled the country. I need your assistance in securing the funds there in your Country,so that I can arrange on how to come over to your country to invest the fund.
Now my questions are:-
1. Can you handle this project?
2. Can I give you this trust?
3. What will be your commission? If you can sponsor this transfer.
Please,let me know if you can assist me,so that I can give you more details on how we shall proceed. As i wait for your urgent response.
Please for security reasons reply to my email address as follows. eznkomo@web.de please treat this information as top secret.
Regards,
Ezra Nkomo
