COMPLIMENTS OF THE DAY
My Dear,
I know that this mail will come to you as surprise since we have not known
or met before now, please consider this letter as a genuine request from a
family in dares of your humble assistance. I am Mrs. Clara Jones the wife
of Edward Jones, However, I got your contact information from the Republic
of Zimbabwe Chamber of Commerce and Industry. When I was searching for a
reliable individual or private company that can assist me to transfer money
on behalf of my late husband, well as a reliable and trustworthy individual
to deal with, then I decided to write you. my husband was Wealthy black
farmer and senior politician with the opposition political party in
Zimbabwe, Movement for Democratic Change (MDC), who was murdered by
President Robert Mugabe.
He was accused of assisting White farmers in fighting the government. The
government claimed he died of heart attack and his body was never seen for
proper autopsy, and he was buried in the government cemetery. You will read
more stories about President Mugabe's brutal acts by visiting this web site:
http://www.rte.ie/news/2000/0418/zimbabwe.html. Before the death of my
husband, he took me and my son to South Africa to deposit the sum of
US$25,000,000, Million (Twenty Five Million united state Dollar's) with a
security and deposit company, as if he knew the looming danger in
Zimbabwe,this money was earmarked for the purchase of new machinery and
chemicals for the farms and the establishment of new farms in Lesotho and
Swaziland.
Meanwhile my children are currently staying in South Africa as Asylum
Seekers planning to transfer this money to a foreign country where we can
invest it, I am face with the dilemma of investing this amount of money in
South Africa for fear of encountering the same experience in future because
of constant economic instability in Africa. This was why we decided to
contact you. I must let you know that this business is 100% risk free and
the nature of your business does not necessary matter.
So if you are willing to assist us to transfer this money out of South
Africa to your bank account whereever for investment, We have agreed to give
you 20% of the total sum for your assistance, while the remaining money
will be for my son investment, which you will assist him to do abroad.
Therefore, if you are willing and interested to render the needed
assistance, Please get in touch with me by my email to enable us discuss
further. Remember that this highly confidential and the success of this
business depend on how secret it is kept.
I am expecting your reply soonest. On your request, I shall also send you
all the documents relating to this transaction as well as my identification.
Thanks
Note that this transaction demands great hearts and true faith.
Yours truly,
Mrs. Clara Jones
