Attn: The Director,
You may be surprise to receive this message from me since you don't know me in person, but for the purpose of introduction, I am MR DAVID UDOLEY, the son of late MR. MARK UDOLEY, who was murdered in a land dispute in ZIMBABWE.I got your contact during my search for reliable & compitent foreigner to handle a confidential financial transaction, then I decided to write you.
My late father was among the few black Zimbabwean rich farmers murdered in cold blood by the agent of the ruling government of President ROBERT MUGABE for his alleged support and sympathy for Zimbabwean opposition party.Before the death of my father, he took me to Ivory Coast. to deposit the sum of Eighteen million Five hundred thousand US Dollars ($18.5m) with a security and finance company, as if he knew the looming dangerin Zimbabwe.
The money was deposited as a gem/precious stone to avoid much dumourage from the security firm.This money was earmarked for the purchase of new machinery and chemicals for the farms and the establishment of new farms in Lesotho and Swaziland.This land problem arose when President R.MUGABE introduced a new land Act. which wholly affects the White rich farmers and some few blacks vehemently condemned the 'MODUS OPERANDI' adopted by the government.
This resulted to rampant killing and mob actions.I and my family who are currently staying in Ivory Coast. as a refugee or an asylum seeker have decided to contact
your as foreiner/beneficiary of the Trunck Case containing the Cash (USD18.5M) for futher transfer of the money to a foreign country where we can invest it.
I am faced with the dilemma of claiming/investing this amount of money in Ivory Coast for fear of encountering the same experience in future since both countries have the same political history.Moreover, the Ivory Coast. monetary policy/law does not allow such investment hence I am seeking for anasylum or refugee.I must let you know that this business is 100% riskfree and the nature of your business does not necessary matter. So if you are willing to assist us claim the ownership of this money,I and my family have agreed to give you 20% of the total money, 40% will be for a joint business venture I will be doing with you and another 35% will be for me and my family which we shall also invest in your country and the remaining 5%will be mapped out for all expenses we may incurred during the transaction.
Therefor, if you are willing and interested to render the needed assistance, endeavor to reply through myemail address or the above numbers.Remember that this is highly confidential and the success of this business depends on how secret it is been kept.
Expecting your reply soonest.
Best Regard.
