From: family good <godfamily6742@yahoo.com>
Date: Sat, 14 Jul 2007 02:38:17 -0700 (PDT)
Subject: Foreign partner needed urgently.
Dear Sir/Madam,
With due respect, trust and humility, I write this letter to you
seeking
your help and assistance. Though it’s difficult since we have not met
before, I got your good contact from the network online while browsing
through website of business opportunities in your country. I believe
that
you are capable and reliable in handling this urgent international
transaction of this sort.
I am Dr.Adam Johnson, Son of the Late comrade Mr. Frank Adam,
the
Zimbabwean former Minister for Youth &Gender Equality who is also a
businessman and politician, in the Zimbabwean politics. My father was
the
famous politician who stood firm against President Mugabe’s idea of
continuous fight in Democratic Republic of Congo and my father also
stood
against the seizure of white owned farms and the distribution of it to
the
blacks without compensation on to the white owners. Because of my
father’s
sincerity he was killed by a planned motor accident from dissident
soldiers suspected to have the backing of the Government and President
Mugabe himself.
But he did not die immediately and during the course of his treatment,
before he died he called me and mother, Gloria Adam, and showed us a
written note concerning a $17 Million funds he deposited in the
ESCROW/SUSPENSE ACCOUNT of one of the major banks here with an
IRREVOCABLE NON WITHDRAWAL INSURANCE CERTIFICATE ORDER/DEPOSITORY
AGREEMENT which states that it is only a foreign appointed
trustee/beneficiary of a NON SOUTH AFRICAN ORIGIN has the power of
claims
and that no money will be deducted from the PRINCIPAL SUM until it gets
to
the account of the beneficiary overseas and that the only officer who
knows about it is Dr. Philip Nosipo who is the head foreign operation,
treasury and international Remittance Department of the Bank.
He also intimated us of some other vital documents that were meant for
his
Political campaign in the next election. My father instructed me to
take
my mother and my two sisters Valerie & Angela to leave Zimbabwe
Immediately for our safety, which we have successfully done and now we
are
in South Africa were the money is deposited with the bank. Because of
the
immigration laws which stops asylum seekers/ refugees like us to
operate
any bank account and the fear of the money not raising eyebrows here in
South Africa and the contents of the DEPOSIT AGREEMENT.
I decided to write you seeking your help for this money to be
transferred
into your private bank account since you are a foreigner as all
arrangements for a hitch-free transfer have will be fully taken care of
by
our financial adviser and the director in charge. And I want to assure
you
also that this transaction is 100% risk free, as no other person knows
about this deposit apart from my mother and I.
As for your reward for your expected assistance we have resolved to go
into partnership with you as soon as the money is transferred to your
nominated account or bank overseas and you will also take 20% of the
total
amount, 5% will be used to offset any expenses that might be incurred
in
the course of this transaction, while the remaining 75% will be kept
for
my family and for the investment with you.
If you are willing to help us I will then give you the deposit code
and
all other relevant documents which you will use to put claims to the
bank
as the beneficiary so that the bank can process the transfer to your
account without further delays. Please try as much as possible to reach
me
use ONLY through this our private email (vinbeson) or telephone number
below, to enable us proceed in earnest towards concluding all
transaction
modalities or you can give me a call through this telephone
number:+27733044597 .
Bear it in mind that our lives solely depend on this lifetime fortune
that
will be transferred into your account, and I do hope that the money
will
be safe when transferred in your account. And please keep this
transaction
very confidential and to yourself alone to avoid complication until we
conclude.
