Subject: Dear Friend,
Dear Friend,
You may be surprise to receive this letter from me, since you don’t know me personally, I am Lewis Mswati. The son of Dr Chiluba Mswati Who was recently murdered in the land dispute in Zimbabwe.
I got your contact as I was searching for a reliable and reputable Person to handle a very confidential business which involve a transfer of fund to a foreign account and I decided to write you. My late father was among the few black Zimbabwean opposition party rich farmers murdered by the agents of the ruling Government of president Robert Mugabe, for his alleged support and sympathy for the Zimbabwean opposition party controlled by the white minority,
Before my fathers death, he deposited the Sum of twenty five million united state dollars (US$25,000,000) with a Security and financial company in (EUROPE), as if he foreseen the looming danger in Zimbabwe.
The money was deposited in a box as valuable items to avoid over taxed custom clearance. This money was allocated for the purchase of new machinery and chemical product for Agro-allied farms and for establishment of new farms in Lesotho and Swaziland. This land problem arose when President Robert Mugabe introduced a new land act that wholly affected the rich white farmers and some blacks vehemently condemned the "modus operandi"adopted by the government.
This result to rampant killings and mob action by the war veterans and Some political Thugs, precisely more than three thousand (3.000) people Have so far been killed. Heads of government from the west, especially Britain, and United States have voice their condemnation of Mugabe's plans. Subsequently, South Africa have development community (S.A.D.C) has continuously supported mugabe's new land act, it is against this background that my entire family who are currently Residing in South Africa have decided to ! Transfer my father's wealth and South Africa's government seems to be playing along with them. I am face with the dilemma of investing this money in South Africa for fear of encountering the same experience in the future, since both countries have almost the same political history.
Moreso, the South African foreign exchange policy does not allow such Investment, Hence I am seeking for (political asylum) AS a business Person whom I entrusted my future and that of my family into his hands, i must let you know that this transaction is 100% risk free and the nature of your business does not necessarily matter. For your assistance we are offering you 20% of the sum, 70% for me and My family, while 10% will be mapped out for any expenses that we may
Incurre during this transaction. We wish to invest our money on commercial properties based on your advice.
Finally, i will demand for assurance that you will not sit on the money when it gets to your personally account or company account in your country, If this proposal is accepted please Confirm your interest by sending this above to
lewismswati77@netscape.net
Thanks.
Best Of Regards,
God Bless You,
Lewis Mswati.
