Dear Kirk,
URGENT FAMILY BUSINESS ASSISTANCE
My name is MRS. MARY. JONAH, the wife of MR.MANIS. JONAH from Zimbabwe. This might be a surprise to you about where I got your contact address. I got your address from the South African Information center.
ALTHOUGH,IT IS NO LONGER NEWS,THE WORLD KNOWS THE WAY ALL THE WHITE FARMERS IN ZIMBABWE IS BEING BRUTALLY MALTREATED BY OUR PRESIDENT, THREATINING THEM TO LEAVE THE COUNTRY.
During the current war against the farmers in Zimbabwe from the supports of our President Robert Mugabe to claim all the white-owned farms to his party members and his followers, he ordered all white farmer's to surrender all their farms to his party members and his followers.
My husband is one of the best farmers in our country and because he did not support Mugabe's ideas, Mugabe's supporters invaded my husband farm and burnt everything in the farm, killing my husband and made away with a lot of items in my husband's farm.
Before his death, my husband had deposited with one of the Security Company in Johannesburg, South Africa the sum of US$14.8 Million (Fourteen Million Eight Hundred Thousand United States Dollars). After the death of my husband, we escaped to the Republic of South Africa where he had deposited the money in the Security Company as valuables.
Because of our status as asylum seekers we are not allowed to operate any bank account within South Africa or clear this consignment from the security company. So I decided to contact overseas firms and companies that will assist me to move this found out of South Africa for our mutual benefit. We have agreed to offer you 20% of the total sum for your assistance, 5% will be mapped out for any expenses that may be incurred in the course of this transaction and 75% will be for me and my family to invest in your country.
Now, all I want you to do is to furnish me with your full addresses, your country of origin, your personal phone and fax numbers,for easy cmmunication. You can contact me on the above email address.
Note: that this transaction is 100% risk free and absolutely confidential. Finnaly, please do not hesitate to indicate of your interest and your wllinness so that i will not make further contacts regarding this transfer.
Thanks and God bless
With Lots Of Regards
MRS.MARY. JONAH
(For the family).
