Compliments of the seasons.
Good Day,
With warm heart, I offer my friendship and greetings, and I hope this mail
meets you in good time. However strange or surprising this contact might
seem to you,as we have not met personally or had any dealings in the past, I
humbly ask that you take due consideration of its importance and immense
benefit. I also sincerely seek your confidence in this transaction, which I
propose to you as a person of integrity.
First and foremost I wish to introduce myself properly to you. My name is
Pual Eduardo Savimbi, I am a nephew and Personal Assistant to Late Jonas
Malheiro Savimbi, leader of UNITA (National Union for the Total Independence
of Angola). As led by my instinct, I selected your email address from an
internet directory, in my search for a partner, hence this proposal.
My Uncle (Mentor) was killed in a battle with government forces of Angola,
led by President Dos Santos, on Friday 22nd February 2002. After his death,
Mr. Antonio Dembo who was his second in command, assumed office as leader of
UNITA, due to lack of the Charisma my Uncle had carried the party with in
Dembo, there was chaos and struggle for leadership. Prominent members like
Carlos Morgado lobbied to depose him and assume office as leader to enrich
themselves and some of them who saw me as a threat to their ambitions,
including Mr.Dembo, planned to kill me. The tension and confusion in UNITA
became uncontrollable when Mr. Dembo died just 10 days after my Uncle was
assasinated. As I lost my mentor in this struggle which has been on for
three decades now, not so much of this struggle interests me anymore, as
there is now no sense of direction. I now desire a peaceful life, as I am no
more interested in conflicts, wars and power struggle for the future
leadership in my country - Angola. For this reason, I secretly left Angola
and came here to seek political asylum.
I am sincerely proposing to you to render me your highly needed assistance
in respect to safekeeping of some of my Uncle's money that arose from
Diamonds sales some months before he was assasinated. This money
(US$7.5million), which was already on its way to my Uncle's Swiss Bank
account, through the Diplomatic means we used to move money abroad, and was
on transit with a private Security firm here in Ouagadougou, in the Republic
of Burkina - Faso, on February when the tragic incident of my Uncle's death
occurred. I then instructed the company to stop further transmission of our
diplomatic consignment to Switzerland (Europe) and keep it in its
safe-deposit custody pending on further instructions from me. However, I
want you to understand that eventhough the company has followed my
instruction in safe-guarding the consignment in its vault, it still does not
know that the consignment contains money in cash. Diplomatic conveyance of
monies was and still is the safest and easiest means to move monies to
europe without trace and origin of the source especially during the boom
times of my late Uncle.
For all these whiles, I have waited for sometime now for security reasons,
and have now decided to act with your reliable assistance. As a matter of
fact, the reason I came to Burkina Faso and sought for political asylum here
is because of the safe deposit of the consignment and to ensure that
everything is in order and in accordance with the instruction I passed to
the transit company after the death of my uncle. Meanwhile, President Dos
Santos has lobbied the International Community to freeze my Uncle's assets
and accounts abroad, to ground UNITA, and has already done this in Angola.
Hence I cannot lodge the funds in my name. Also I did not declare the
consignment to contain funds to the security firm here.
I plan to use this money to safeguard my future. It is very essential that
you understand that the kind of trust and confidence I want to put in you is
extraordinary, and an act of desperation on my part, in order not to lose
this money. Also, ensure that this contact with you should be treated with
utmost secrecy. Your role in this project, is to negotiate and clear the
deposited consignment from the safe-keeping company, after which the money
will be lodged into an account preferably a new account you should open in
your name for this transaction. My share of the money will be invested in
your country through your help when my asylum application in this country is
granted and my travel documents secured to enable me to come and meet with
you in your country.
For your reliable assistance, I will reward you with 15% of the money.I have
with me here all the enabling documents which includes the Certificate of
Deposit for the consignment containing the funds, which will be used to
claim the consignment from the Security Firm, and the release codes of the
vaults. Also, everything will be legally processed for transfer of ownership
to you, and this transaction should be completed immediately depending on
your prompt response.
I thank you in advance as I anticipate your assistance in enabling me
achieve this goal. Please contact me whether or not you are interested in
assisting me. This will enable me scout for another partner in the event of
non-interest on your part. To understand the struggle to liberate from
