Subject: SAVE MY FAMILY
TTN:
I greet you in the name of our lord. My name is MRS. ROSELINE MULEKO, I am a
widow and a motherof Two all girls. I know you will see my letter to you as
an embarrassment considering the fact that we do not know ourselves. I plead
with you to be patient with me I feel very pleased to contact you for some
assistance and business relationship.
I live in South Africa with my children. My late husband was a loving,
caring and hardworking businessman who died unfortunately In a ghastly auto
crash. Before the sudden death of my beloved husband, and father of my
daughters, my late husband intended to establish a business in the united
states of America with the sum of$30 million united states dollars, but
unfortunately he died before this proposed venture. Following his death, his
family members insisted that I am not entitled to his property (Assets and
money) since I am a woman and my offspring's all girls as I do not have a
male child for my husband.
Well, according to some barbaric traditional laws here in South Africa
(Africa) which doesn't permit a woman to inherit a man's property, as they
are expected by tradition to take over the management of his business and
other properties including myself who automatically becomes a wife to one of
his immediate brothers. Unfortunately to this wicked family members, the
$30million united states dollars which my late husband intended to use in
establishing a business in the United States was deposited in a bank account
unknown to his family .I and the lawyer is the only one aware of this
money, so I have discussed this matter with a staff of the bank that i want
this money personally so that I will be able to take care of my children's
educational needs since my husband's family members vehemently opposed the
furtherance of their education.
According to the staff of the bank, the best way to secure this money is to
transfer this money to a bank account outside South Africa For safe-keeping,
later it will be used for business establishment subject to the Advise of
whosoever finally assists us. At this juncture, I there fore ask for your
sincere assistance in providing us with your bank details and the
enablement to facilitate the remittance of this fund into your nominated
account.
As soon as I get your positive response, I shall provide you with all the
necessary detail for this transfer. However, I have decided to to give you
30% of the total money as a reward for your sincere assistance and the
remaining 70% of the money will be for my investment as I will want to keep
aglow my late husbands dream of investing in real estate. To be
able to help
