REQUEST FOR URGENT ASSISTANCE
Good day. This very confidential request should not
come as a surprise to you. But it is because of the
nature of what is happening to me and my family urged
me to contact you.
My name is MR. Remond Martins, the second son of MR.
THABO Martins, of Beitbridge, Zimbabwe. At the height
of the present political crises in our country, in
which the white farmers in our country are being
slained and ripped off their belongings by the
supporters of our president, Mr. Robert G. Mugabe, in
their efforts to reclaim all the white owned farms in
our country. My father and my elder brother were
brutally slained to a painful death in their struggle
to protect some white farmers who ran to take refuge
in our farm. My father, during his life on earth was a
prominent indigenous farmer and also trades on Diamond
and Gold from some countries in Africa. He publicly
opposes the crude policies and crime against humanity
on the white farmers by Mr.Robert Mugabe and his
followers.
As a result of which the president followers invaded
my fathers farm, burnt down everything and brutally
slained him and my elder brother due to their role in
trying to protect these white farmers on the 13th day
of February, 2002. And using media law restriction to
protect their wicked acts. That not being enough, the
president and his followers after winning the last
Undemocratic Elections decided to confiscate assets of
our black indigenes who are opposing his policies and
who support the white farmers, along with the assets
of these white farmers themselves, which are being
presently confiscated. I therefore decided to move my
mother and younger sister to the Republic of South
Africa for safety of our lives, where we presently
seeked for political asylum, temporarily.
During my father’s life on earth, he had WILLED the
sum of Thirty million United States dollars
(US$30,000.000.00) to be shared between me and my
elder brother before he met his untimely death on that
faithful day. This he had deposited with a finance and
security company in the Republic of South Africa from
where he operates most of his Gold and Diamond trades
to our country. In view of this and as the only
surviving son of my father, and with the present clamp
down, killing and confiscation of assets of supporters
of the white farmers presently in our country, I
therefore humbly wish to notify you of my intention to
use you as my family's Trustee in lifting this money
out of Africa finally and also seek for your honest
and trustworthy assistance to help me clear and
accommodate this fund when it gets to your nominated
bank account. This is to avoid the money being
dictated out and confiscated by the president Mugabe’s
regime.
My mother and myself have agreed to make the
provisions;
1.That 20% of the total money will be given to you for
your assistance in clearing and accommodating this
fund.
2.That 10% of the total money will be set aside for
taxation and any other expenses that might be incurred
in the course of this transaction, while the remaining
70% will be for me and my family for our future
investment purposes which will depend on your
assistance,if you are intrested send me your confidential telephone number
and your full name so i can contact you and explain details to you.
Please I hope you will grant and view this very
request with favour and much understanding of our
situation now, and will be a very honest and reliable
person to deal with. And also bearing in mind the
confidential nature of my request, all our
communication must be kept within yourself to protect
my family and yourself rendering the help.
