URGENT BUSINESS ASSISTANCE
Attn: MANAGING DIRECTOR/CEO.
Dear Sir/Madam,
You may be surprise to receive this massage from me since you don t know me
in person, but for the purpose of introduction; I am MRS SANDRA JUMAH the
wife of late MR. ALFRED JUMAH. My late husband was among the few Black
ZIMBABWEAN rich farmers murdered in cold blood by the ruling Government of
President ROBERT MUGABE for his alleged support and sympathy for Zimbabwean
opposition party. Before the death of my husband the sum of $25.5 USD
(TWENTY FIVE MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THUSAND DOLLARS) was map out for the
rehabilitation of our old farm and improvement of a new farm in LESOTHO.
This land problem arose when President ROBERT MUGABE introduces a new land
act. Which wholly affects the white reach farmers and some Blacks vehemently
condemned this “MODUS OPERANDI” adopted by the Government, which resulted to
killing and mob actions; more so our farmland has been claim. When I

MR. AUSTIN JUMAH personally arranged and transferred the said money through
diplomatic means out to our sister’s country South Africa. After considering
the malicious murder of my husband and taking away of our farmland, I
instructed my son to take Asylum/refugee in South Africa.
Upon his arrival in South Africa, after due consideration I ask him to
deposit the money with a Bank in Johannesburg for security reasons, with an

Government, and the strike monetary laws of South Africa which do not allow
any Asylum seeker certain financial right, I need a trustworthy and reliable
person such as your self who can assist my son in transferring this money to
your account outside South Africa as I am in need of urgent assistance.

is complete trust and assurance that our part of the money will be saved
when transferred to your account. I would also like you to keep this
