Subject: URGENT ASSISTANCE.
JOHANESBURG SOUTH AFRICA.PRESIDENT/CEOYou may be surprised to receive this letter from me since you do not know me personally. I am Mr Frank Molola, the SON of Mr. Edward Molola, who was recently murdered in the land dispute in ZIMBABWE which i have no doubt you may be aware if you listen to either BBC or CNN. Some documented pictures of this incident, you can view atI got your contact through network online hence decided to write to you. Before the death of my FATHER, he had taken me to Johannesburg to deposit the sum of USD$22.5 Million , in one of the private security companies, as if he foresaw the looming danger in Zimbabwe.This money was deposited in a box as germ stones to avoid much demurrage from the security company. This amount was meant for the purchase of new machines and chemicals for the farms and establishment of a new farm in Swaziland.This land problem came when Zimbabwe President MR. ROBERT MAGABE introduced a New Land Act reform, which wholly affected the rich white famers and some few black farmers. This resulted to killing and mob action by Zimbabwean war veterans and some lunatics in the society. In fact, a lot of people were killed because of this land reform act for which my FATHER was one of the victims. It is against this back ground that my family and I who are currently staying in South Africa decided to transfer my FATHERS money to a foreign Country since the law of South Africa prohibits refugees to open any bank account or to be involved in any financial transaction throughout the territorial zones of South Africa.As the SON, I am saddled with the reaponsibility of seeking a genuine foreign account where this money could be transferred into without the knowledge of my government who are bent on my family. I must also let you know that this transaction is 100% risk free. If you accept to assist me and my family, all I want from you is for you to make an arrangements and come to Johannesburg,South Africa so that you can help me open a non-resident account in your name which will aid us in transferring the money into any account you will nominate overseas.This money I intend to use for investment and growth in your country. I have two options, firstly you can choose to have certain percentage of the money for nominating your account for this transaction, or you can go into partnership with me for proper profitable investment of the money in your country. Whichever the option you want, feel free to notify me. I have also mapped out 5% of this money for all kinds of expenses we might incur in the process of this ransaction.Finally, please treat this matter as urgent as possible. I am in dire need to leave this country soonest.Thanks for your mutual co-operation.I expect your soonest response.Best regards,MR FRANK MOLOLA(For the family)
