Dear Sir/Madam,
Don't be surprised to receive this message, I am Benson Thsepo, son of Mr.
Smith Thsepo(Thsepo TOBACCO FARM ZIMBABWE ) , my father was murdered by
Zimbabwe veterans and critic black people of ZANU-PF ruling party, if you
are conversant with CNN AFRICA. Before the death of my father on the 29th of
Feb 2002, he was a prosperous tobacco and coffee farmer who has invested
much in agriculture sector and a very major sponsor of the opposition party
(MOVEMENT OF DEMOCRATIC CHANGE).
PRESIDENT ROBERT MUGABE and his ZANU-PF ruling with the new land reform
system, the government secretly sponsor the war veterans and Irate party
members to dispose the land being occupied by whites and some rich farmers
who are opposed to his consistent staying in power and radical and
unnecessary reforms target to his political opponents and high rate of abuse
of human right which led to the killing of some members of opposition party
including my father Smith Khumalo.
I acknowledge very well that my father deposited the sum of US$23.7M (TWENTY
THREE MILLION SEVEN HUNDRED THOUSAND UNITED STATES DOLLARS) with a security
and financial company here in Johannesburg South - Africa with the intention
of using it for the purchase of new farm machineries and chemical for
Agricultural purpose as well as purchasing hectares of land in Botswana.I
got your contact through chamber of commerce.

asylum.(refugee) here in South - Africa, my position does not allow me to
open an account or to normalize this fund to any meaningful business
transaction, I want you to understand that this is purely family fund not
money laundering affair.
I solicit for your honest assistance to a family shattered by Mugabe's
government, I want this fund to be transferred to your nominated account
overseas, with your partnership, I will invest in your country, I and my
mother have agreed to offer you 30% of the fund for your kind assistance
then 5% will be for any possible expenses that might occur in the process of
this transaction while 65% will be for my family investment in your country

arranged by me and my attorney, feel free to ask any question regarding this
