From: Mrs. Fatima Usman
Darfur, Sudan
Good-Day!
My name is Mrs. Fatima Usman from the Republic of Sudan, I know this will be
a surprise to you. I got your contact through search on line from Sudanese
Information Exchange (SIE) I am the wife of Mr. Omar Fathalla Usman from
Darfur, Sudan. My husband was the owner of Omar Sea Food Industry & Omar
Farm Land in Darfur Region. When the Government discovered that Darfur
region is rich on Oil and Mineral Resources, and the Organization Rebel
Movement stepped into Darfur to occupied those areas oil was discovered and
those areas happens to be my husband's landed properties.
Government and the Rebels started fighting over who will inherit the Darfur
Region because of the Oil discovered. It was unfortunate that my husband was
killed on the process by the Rebels in order to inherit the land and all my
husband's companies were burnt down. Before then my husband had moved US$25
Million United States Dollars to South Africa for establishment of another
branch of his companies. The fund was deposited in a private security &
finance company in the name of my elder son Mr. Ahmed Hassan Usman as the
beneficiary.
Upon his return from South Africa he was murdered in cold blood by the Rebel
Movement. Now, the Rebel Movement turned against the remaining family member
of my husband and I ordered my son to leave immediately for South Africa to
meet with my family Attorney who assisted my (late) husband when the funds
were deposited and he left without any delay for Johannesburg, South Africa,
I am currently in Darfur Sudan because I am old and cannot go anywhere.
Would you be interested to assist my son in moving this money out from
South Africa since his status as asylum seeker (Refugee) does not allow the
transfer of the funds in his name, the family will offer you 20% of the
total amount, 5% will be mapped out to balance any expenses incurred, while
75% will be for my family and will be invested in your country under your
management.
Due to my ill-health and age, I would advise you to please contact my son in
Johannesburg, South Africa on the below state Email Address (fatimah
.usman12@gmail.com)
Please Contact My Son:
Mr. Ahmed Hassan Usman
Thanking you for your anticipated co-operation in advance.
Sincerely yours,
Mrs. Fatima Usman
For The Family
