Dearest love,
how are you doing today?
I am Miss buab doris from Zimbabwe. My late Father, Mr.Buba Gatorgay was the co owner of an Agricultural firm and his partner happens to be among the white farmers that the dictator President of Zimbabwe, Robert Mugabe took over their farmlands and handed over to the blacks,despite all the pleas from the International Communities, and members of the COMMONWEALTH COUNTRIES. Most of the company's assets, animal farms and milk industry were seized and confiscated by the tyrant President. My late Father was a British citizen of African descent and we both lived in the company's staff quarters but our lives were threatened by agents of President Mugabe. Since then, my Father and I have been living in exile here in Dakar-Senegal. My Father died last August as a result of cardiac arrest.
Dear, there is a huge amount of money that my Father before his death was able to send to a finance house in Europe through the help of the International Red Cross staff, because President Mugabe, placed order for the closure of the accounts of all the white farmers and no one was allowed to transfer more than ten thousand dollars abroad but luckily enough, I and my late Father along with some other farmers were assisted through diplomatic means with the help of the International Red Cross to send our money abroad for safety. The total Sum is seven million four hundred thousand US dollars (US$7.400.000.00), the money is part of our life savings and what my late father inherited from his late father, from whom he took over the family business. The money arrived safely in senegal. All the documents to the deposition of the money are with me here in Senegal. I would like to have your assistance in relocating and investing the money into any lucrative business you deem profitableE I am 26 years of age hence I need your cooperation to secure this deposit which is as it stands now, the only hope of my survival as I have already lost my Mother and Father, and the situation of insecurity. Life is no more the same with me after all the lot I have gone through. All my hope now rests on you, and I sincerely believe you will not disappoint me, I am expecting your immediate reply, so that I will forward to you the contact of the finance firm in senegal. I will equally give you a letter of Authority, giving you the right to transfer the money to a different account for safety purposes while i prepare to come over after the transfer. Awaiting your quick response via this email box, and i will like to have your phone number and fax.
