Hello,
My name is Mrs. Rosemary Ncube and my sons name is
Pascal Ncube. I am a refugee from Zimbabwe presently
residing in Midland, South Africa. I am contacting you
on behalf of the Ncube family with a great sense of
loss having just finished a customary two (2) year
period of mourning for my late husband, Mr. Gibson
Ncube. Thank you for your attention, I must apologize
firstly for contacting you by this medium because I
had no other option. I am prepared to offer you a
substantial amount of money for youto assist my
family in this venture.
My late husband, Mr. Gibson Ncube was a very rich
Zimbabwean farmer who was murdered in his farm in the
year 2002 by the War veterans who took over his farm
due to his position as Administrative secretary of the
Matabeleland Movement for Democratic Change (MDC), the
main opposition party in my country Zimbabwe kicking
against the wicked acts of Mr. Robert Mugabe, the
incumbent prime minister against the White farmers. As
you may be aware, Prime Minister Robert Mugabe
introduced new land reforms, which was particularly
not favourable for the rich white farmers and few
black farmers (my father inclusive). After his death,
I had to flee with my son and daughter to South Africa
because we were secretly informed of his plans to kill
us.
Before his death, my husband had sold off his farming
equipments and was preparing to re-locate to
neighboring Botswana where he was negotiatinganother
expanse of land to set up another farm, but due to the
tip-off he had received about his farm being up for
seizure, he had diverted the proceeds of sale of his
equipments and other monies to tune of (Twelve
Million, Five Hundred Thousand Dollars) into vault
company in London. He also gave us the transaction
codes for the deposit and specifically instructed that
we should contact a foreigner who will take delivery
of the deposit once we have given out the transaction
codes. As you may be aware, the law prohibits asylum
seekers from operating bank accounts or any
involvement in financial transactions of any kind. All
I need is your trustworthiness to be able to entrust
the above said amount and help me with investment
opportunities.
I am contacting you with my only son- Pascal, who is
32 years old and the next of kin to his fathers
estate. I am gravely sick with Breast Cancer and
require your honest assistanceas I am preparing to
return to Zimbabwe to continually seek medical
treatment. This explains the reason for my contact to
you. Please do not be surprised at this correspondence
because my ill health has required me to seek your
services urgently because I do not know how much
longer I can live.
If this correspondence touches your conscience, please
feel free to contact my son- Mr. Pascal Ncube on his
email address: pascalncubee102@yahoo.co.uk. or telephone
number. He is in a good position to
give you further information regarding the transaction
as the next of kin. I am making arrangements to travel
back to Zimbabwe anytime from now. The funds are not
of illegal origin, it is not being traced or
investigated, it is not stolen money, it is money that
my husband made as a farmer and from selling his farm
properties and I assure you there is no risk involved
foryou. Sharing modalities will be discussed after
remittance of the funds into safe account of your
choice. Please do not ignore this correspondence and
treat with utmost confidentiality due to the volume of
money involved.
I await your urgent reply.
Sincerely yours,
Mrs. Rosemary Ncube.
