Mrs Veronica Gezi
ADD:2-3 Nelson Mandela Avenue,
Sandton City, Johannesburg,
South Africa.
TEL:+27-733-144-452
Attn: Dear sir/madam,
This may appear a bit surprising to you but very beneficial; as a matter of
urgency, i am desparately
looking for a foriegn partner whom i can trust to handle some investment or
fund movement. I am MRS. VERONICA GEZI MARTINS wife of late MR.MENTU GEZI
MARTINS, who was murdered by the Zimbabwean veterans and sponsored assasins
of the tyrant Robert Mugabe.
I got your address from the consultancy directory during my search for a
reliable and honest person to transact this busines with. I write to solicit
for your special assistance to a family shattered by a tyrannical government
led by a dictator and his (ZANU-PF) ruling party- president Robert Mugabe.
Because of land and farm land crisis in Zimbabwe, the government secretly
sponsored the war veterans and some irrate party members to disposess the
land being occupied by white farmers. This action has led to the killing of
some members of opposition party...The MDC including my husband(MENTU GEZI),
who did do not support this ill-fated action.
But before the death of my husband, he anticipated some dangers and so he
deposited the sum of US$15.4m (Fifteen million four hundered Thousand United
States Dollars)in the name of our only son 'LOUIS' at a reputable security
company in South Africa with the intention of using to open fertilizer
manufacturing company among other companies in our neighbouring country
(Swaziland )after his university education.
On the 29th of July, 2001, the war veterans and some supporters of
(ZANU-PF)ruling party trooped into our compound and axed him(my husband) to
death. Since then, they have been terrorizing my only son, Louis Gezi, but
he managed to escape to a neighbouring country, South Africa as a political
asylum seeker (refugee).
I and my two daughters are right now in the Republic of South Africa as
Assylum refugees because of the social political and economic crises in my
country (Zimbabwe) which detoriates everyday by day especially AFTER THIS
RECENT VISIT OF THE U.S PRESIDENT G.W.BUSH TO AFRICA AND CONDERMED THE
MUGABE'S REGIME. Also, there is massive arrest and five years detainsion of
all the protestants and the MDC supporters as ordered by President Robert
Mugabe.
Conseqently, our status/position here in South Africa does not permit us to
open an account or run any huge financial business. That is why I want this
fund to be transferred out of Africa continent (BEFORE IT IS FROOZEN BY THE
ROARING LION of the tyrant Robert Mugabe's regime) into your private/company
account so that you will assist us to invest it in your country.
But before we continue in this transaction, we would have to sign an
AGREEMENT for our protection and rights. Also, i wish to inform you that
this transaction is NOT A CHILD'S PLAY and it is 100% REAL AND RISK FREE and
been assisted by an international business law firm based here in South
Africa and we are looking forward to employing the services of another law
firms in USA to prove its transparency and legitimacy and avoid all any
interception by the internal, international and multi-national monetary
bodies.
Hence,if you agree to assist us, we will offer you 20% of the money for your
assistance, 10% will be for the possible expenses incurred in the process of
this transaction, while 70% will be for our family
investment(s) in your country through your assistance.
I need your urgent and confidential response.
Best regards,
