ATTN: Please.
I am Mr. MOSES ZUMA the son of Mr. of late Sir JOHN ZUMA, the Re-knowned Zimbabwean wine and cattle farmer. I got your contact courtesy of South Africa network-on-line at the South African chamber commerce.
During the war waged against the farmers in Zimbabwe by the supporters and cohorts of President Robert Mugabe to claim all the white owned farmers in our country, my late father's big farms were among those targeted by the ZANU-PF armed group. *In the course of the revolution in ZANU-PF armed group attacked and invaded my father's farm, burned, destroyed and eventually killed him. After my father death last year, I managed to escape to South Africa, because my life was threatened and Zimbebwe was no longer safe for me to stay.
I escaped safely into South Africa with my father's lifetime fortune of US$20m (Twenty Million, US Dollars) cash bonds documents, important documents of property title and other valuables as he instructed to do before he died. The money was concealed by my late father and secured in one treasure box, transported through diplomatic means during the days of my father as I was named next of kin to this fortune. The box is currently, safely secured in the vaults of private security firm.
Presently, I am residing temporarily in Sourh Africa pending the outcome of an appeal filed on my behalf by m attorney for the department of home affairs to grant me a politial asylum. I am in a dilemma on how to moe this money safely out of the security company for investments. Moreover due to the South Africa government stringent monetary policies, regulations and the senitive and volatile political status of the region, it would be most dangerous to attempt investments here as such act could jeopardize my chances.
In recognition of your personal executive powers and investment opportunities that abound in your country, I solicit for your assistance in moving this money out of South Africa, you will guide all my future investment in your country and it will be operated on partnership level.
You will be getting 20% of the total investment capital moved to your country, as your share for assistance in transferering this fund out of South Africa and the balance will be plugged into the investment projects. On the receipt of your indication of interest to go into co-operation with me I open up discussion on the best ways to transfer this fund to your country. Please treat this transaction as strictly confidential and contact me with my family e mail.
Thanks fo your co-operation.
Yours Faithfully,
MOSES ZUMA(MR).
