ATTENTION : Sir/Madam
You may be surprised to receive this strange letter from me. I am Mr William
Ncuqka, the son of Mr.William KHUMA of Zimbabwe.I got your address from an
Internet website here in South Africa. After due consideration from your
profile, I became aware and assured of your credibility to help me.
My father was among the rich black farmers in Zimbabwe who were murdered in
cold blood by the agent of the ruling government of President Robert Mugabe,
because my father was against the method adopted by the government on the
new land reformed act , which wholly affected the white farmers in Zimbabwe.
Before the inversion, my father took me to South Africa as if he foresaw the
looming danger in Zimbabwe and deposited US$25Million (Twenty- Five Million
American Dollars) with a security and financial company in South Africa.
This money was for buying farmlands in Lesotho, Swaziland and also machinery
for the farm. Heads of government from western world especially Britain and
USA have voiced their condemnation against Mugabe?s new land reformed act.It
is against this background
that my family has mandated me to seek for assistance to transfer this money
to a foreign account for investment purposes. Presently I am residing in
South Africa as an asylum seeker. However, I cannot invest this money here
in South Africa because Zimbabwe and
South Africa are close countries and have almost the same political history
. And with the financial lawsM of South Africa, as an asylum seeker, I have
no right to own or open a bank account in my name here in South Africa .
From the above, you can understand that my entire life and families future
depends on this money.
I shall be grateful if you can assist me transfer this money out of South
Africa into your company/ Personal Account for investment purposes as my
next of kins or my late Daddy?s business partner. Please note that this
transaction is 100% risk free, and for your efforts , I am prepared to offer
you 20% of the total sum. Also, I have decided to use 5% of this money to
settle any expenses that may arise during the process of this transfer.
The balance, I intended to invest in a profitable venture in your country or
any where you may advise . The major thing l expect from you is absolute
assurance that this money will save when transferred to your account. If
this proposal is accepted by you, please reply urgently and get in touch
with me on the above telephone and email so that I will then furnish you
with more details will appreciate it if you maintain the confidentiality of
this matter because of the happenings in my country Zimbabwe.
Yours sincerely,
MR. William Ncuqka
