URGENT BUSINESS ASSISTANCE
DEAR SIR,
My name is MR RICHARD WILLIAMS from the republic of Zimbabwe,the first son of CHEIF DENNIS WILLIAMS .It might be a surprise to you as to how I got your contact,I got your contact from the South AfricanChamber of commerce in Johannesburg.
During the current war against the farmers inZimbabwe, from the support of President, RobertMugabe, in his effort to chase the white farmers outof the country, He ordered all the white farmers tosurrender their farms to his party members and hisfollowers. My father was one of the best andsuccessful farmers in our country then,and formerlythe finance minister of Robert ugade's
administration,but he did not support the idea of dispossessing the white farmers of their land.
Because of this,his farm was invaded and burnt by Government supporters.In the course of the attack,my father was killed,and the invaders made away with a lot of items from my father’s farm and our family house was totally destroyed.My mother almost passed away after a heart attack.
Before the death of my father, he drew my attention to the sum of US$28
million United States Dolars,which he had deposited with a security company in South Africa during his tenure as the Finance minister of
Zimbabwe.My mother My sister and I decided to move to South Africa for our own security, for our lives were in danger.The contents of the consignment were stored as important personal valuable by my father using his
diplomatic impunity then.
I decided to contact you (your firm) to assist me in moving the money out of South Africa.This became necessary after we were denied any right to run bank accounts or any other form of financial transaction for we are political asylum seekers in South Africa.
We propose that you shall receive25% of the entire amount for your assistance in moving the money out.70% of this money goes to us (My mother My sister and I)The remaining 5% shall be used to cover expenses
incurred in the course of the transaction.
I want immediate confirmation of your interest via my personal phone,fax or email as given above.As soon as I get your respond I shall give out more details on how we shall proceed.
Thanks for your anticipated co-operation.
Best regards.
Mr.RICHARD WILLIAMS
