Subject: TRUST WORTHY PERSON TO HELP OUT
Good day,
You may be surprised to receive this letter from me
since you do not know me personally. The purpose of my
introduction is that I am David Suki , the first son
of Thomas suki one of the most popular black farmers
in Zimbabwe
who was murdered in the land dispute in my country. I
got your
contact through network online hence decided to write
you.
Before the death of my father, he had taken me to
Johannesburg to deposit the sum of USD$21.5 million
(twenty one million, Five Hundred thousand United
States dollars), in one of the private security and
finance company, as he foresaw the looming danger in
Zimbabwe this funds was deposited in a box as
gem stones to avoid much demurrage from the security
and finance company.This amount was meant for the
purchase of new machines and chemicals for the Farms
and establishment of new farms in swaziland.
This land problem came when Zimbabwean President Mr.
Robert Mugabe introduced a new Land Act Reform wholly
affecting the rich white farmers and some few black
farmers, and this resulted to the killing and mob
action by Zimbabwean war veterans and some lunatics in
the society. In fact a lot of people were killed
because of this Land reform Act for which my father
was
one of the victims.
It is against this background that, I and my family
fled Zimbabwe for fear of our lives and are currently
staying in Italy where we are seeking political asylum
and moreso have decided to transfer my fathers money
to a more reliable foreign account. since the law of
Italians prohibits a refugee (asylum seeker) to open
any bank account or to be involved in any financial
transaction throughout the territorial zone of
Italy, As the eldest son of my father, I am saddled
with the
responsibility of seeking a genuine foreign account
where these funds could be transferred without the
knowledge of my government who are bent on taking
everything we have got. The South African government
seems to be playing along with them.
I am faced with the dilemma of moving these funds out
of South Africa for fear of going through the same
experience in future, both countries have similar
political history. As a businessman,I am seeking for a
partner who I have to entrust my future and that of my
family in his hands, I must let you
know that this transaction is risk free. If you accept
to assist me and my family, all I want you to do for
me, is to make an arrangements with the security and
finance company to clear the consignment(funds) from
their affiliate office here in Italy as I have already
given directives for the consignment to be brought to
Italy from South Africa.But before then all modalities
will have to be put in place like change of
ownership to the consignment and more importantly this
money I intend to use for investment.
I have two options for you. Firstly you can choose to
have certain percentage of the funds for nominating
your account for this transaction. Or you can go into
partnership with me for the proper profitable
investment of the funds in your country. Whichever the
option you want, feel free to notify me. I have also
mapped out 5% of this money for all kinds of expenses
incurred in the process of this transaction.If you do
not prefer a partnership I am willing to give you 20%
of the money while the remaining 75% will be for my
investment in your country. Contact me with this
E-mail address:.....d.suki@virgilio.it,..... while I implore you to
maintain the absolute secrecy required in this
transaction.
Note:your prompt response will be appreciated.
Thanks, GOD BLESS
Yours Faithfully,
David Suki.
