RE: MUTUAL ASSISTANCE & CO-OPERATIVE INVESTMENT
Dear Sir,
This may appear a bit surprising to you but very beneficial; as a matter of
Urgency, I am desperately looking for a foreign partner whom I can trust to
Handle some investment or fund movement. I am MRS. ROSE GEZI JUMA wife Of
late MR. ANTHONY GEZI JUMA, who was murdered by the Zimbabwean veterans and
irate black people.
I am writing from Zimbabwe. I got your address from the internet through the
consultancy directory during my search for a reliable and honest person to
transact this business with. I write to solicit for your special assistance
to a family shattered by a tyrannical government led by a dictator and his
(ZANU-PF) ruling party- president Robert Mugabe.
Because of land and farm land crisis in Zimbabwe, the government secretly
sponsored the war veterans and some irate party members to dispossess the
land being occupied by white farmers. This action has led to the killing of
some members of opposition party including my husband who did do not support
this ill-fated action.
But before the death of my husband, he anticipated some dangers and so he
deposited the sum of US$15.4M (FIFTEEN MILLION FOUR HUNDRED THOUSAND UNITED
STATES DOLLARS) in the name of our only son ‘JONATHAN in a reputable
security company in SOUTH AFRICA with the intention of using it to open
fertilizer manufacturing company among other companies in our neighboring
country (Swaziland) after his university education.
On the 29th of July, 2003, the war veterans and some supporters of (ZANU-PF)
ruling party trooped into our compound and axed him (my husband) to death.
Since then, they have been terrorizing my only son, JONATHAN JUMA, but he
managed to escape to a neighboring country, South Africa as a political
asylum seeker (refugee). But his position in South Africa does not permit
him to open an account or run any huge financial business. That is why I
want this fund to be transferred into your private account so that you will
assist him to invest it in your country.
Hence, if you agree to assist us, we will offer you 25% of the money for
your assistance, 5% will be for the possible expenses incurred in the
process of this transaction, while 70% will be for our family investment in
your country through your assistance. I need your most prompt response.
Only reply on this email address: mrsgezijuma@yahoo.com
Best regards,
ROSE GEZI JUMA (MRS.)
FOR THE FAMILY
N/B. Upon your immediate response, I will immediately arrange and send to
you all the INFORMATIONS that will empower your smooth transaction with the
security company in SOUTH AFRICA and I will also send to you the agreement
that will protect both interests.
