Dear Friend,
Good day. I decided to contact you after I went through my father's file. Hence we confide in you. we sincerely seek your assistance. I am Mr. Yaya Nayan the only child of late Mr. Leonardo Nayan a big farmer from Zimbabwe. Due to the political problems in Zimbabwe and as a result of president Robert Mugabe's introduction of new 'land act reform' that is wholly affecting the rich white farmers and the few rich black farmers, all white farmers were asked to surrender their farms to the government for re-distribution, in fact to his political party members and my late father though black was a big farmer and a strong member of an opposition party that did not support Mr. Mugabe's policies.
President Robert Mugabe then ordered the police under his pay row to invade my father's farm. They killed my father and took away a lot of items from his farm and our house. After his death ,the Reverend of our church handed over an envelop which contains some documents with instructions from my father that I and my mother should leave Zimbabwe in case anything happen to him. Also found in the envelop was a deposit slip - confirming a cash deposit totaling ten million United States dollars [US$8m] deposited in a security company.
I want you to help me and put up claims on this deposit, I would like you to have a look at information pertaining this political crisis from Internet on the following websites below.
