Dear Sir,
This may appear a bit surprising to you but very beneficial as a matter of
urgentcy,I am desparately looking for a foriegn partner whom i can trust to
handle some investment or fund movement.
I am Mrs.Monica.F.Rossman,wife of late Mr.Frank Rossman, who was murdered by
the Zimbabwean veterans and irrate blackpeople.I am writing from South
Africa.I got your address from the internet through the consultancy
directory during my search for a reliable and honest person to transact this
business 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 including
my husband(Frank Rossman). 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 John
Rossman Jr,with the help of reputable security company in south Africa with
the intention of using it to open fertilizer manufacturing company among
other companies in our neighbouring country (Swaziland)after his university
education.
On the 29th of June 2000,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,John Rossman Jr,but
we managed to escape to a neighbouring country,South Africa as a political
asylum seeker(refugee).But our position 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 into your private account so
that you will assist him to invest it in your country.Hence,if you agree to
assist us,we will offer you 20% of the money for your assistance,5% will be
for the possible expenses incurred in the process of this transaction,while
75% will be for our family investment in your country through your
assistance.I need your urgent and confidential response.
Best regards,
Mrs.Monica Rossman.
(For The Family).
Upon your immediate response,I will immediately arrange and send to you all
the informations that will empower your good self in finalizing the
transaction with the security company here in south Africa I will also send
to you the agreement that will protect both interest.And also further
information about yourself is necessary for I can not play on this.
Waiting for your prompt and positive response.Please read about problems in
Zimbabwe from the link below.
