Family Investment
Dear,
In appreciation of your esteemed contact received
through a reliable source and the choice of your
country I wish to introduce myself, I am mackab Kabila the son of the late
Democratic Republic of
Congo President Laurent Desire Kabila of the blessed
memory. I know this letter might come to you as a
surprise but I honestly do not intend to surprise you.
I write this letter in respect of my intention to
invest the sum of US$35M(Thirty Five Million United
State Dollars) with you. I inherited this money from
my mother. This money was got through the sales of
Diamond and Timber when my father was the head of
state. My mother though not her legal wife used her
privilege position to engage in the business of
Diamond and Timber since she knows that her survival
will depend on how much she can get out of the
privilege situation.
When my father was assassinated on 16TH Jan.2001 by one
of his bodyguards Lt.Rashidi Kasereke through the
conspiracy of some top army officers that wanted to
topple him I escaped to South Africa because of the
fear that I might be arrested by my half brother Lt.
General Joseph Kabila the present head of state.
Actually his mother and my mother are not in the best
of relationship because of who among them will be the
first lady tussle and this ultimately affected us
their children. Considering the relationship between
South Africa and the Democratic Republic of Congo new
government, my mother advised me to leave For South Africa
for security reason, while the funds were
deposited with a security Company in South Africa.
On getting to South Africa where I have been living
since then as a political refugee I am seeking for a
reliable foreigner who can assist me in moving this
money out for safe banking and profitable investment.
Honestly I contacted you because I don't want to
invest this money in South Africa due to my status
here as a political Refugee. And moreover I wouldn't
want to take risk because this money is all that I and
my Mother is depending on because My half brother has
seized all my father's assets and money and left I and
my mother empty handed without knowing about this
funds deposited at the Security Company in South
Africa so that is why I decided that investing this
money abroad should be the best investment for me. I
will be honored if I can be given the privilege of
investing this money with your help.
In view of this plight, I expect you to be trustworthy
and kind enough to respond to this distress call to
save my mother and I from a hopeless future. And if
you agree, I hereby agree to compensate your sincere
and candid effort in this regard with 15% of the total
money and annual 5% of the after tax returns on
investment for the first three years. Thereafter, the
term shall be varied. 5% for expenses which may arise
during the transaction. When the money ($9million) is
moved into your discrete account, you will be allowed
to draw 15% in your favor, while the remaining "MONEY"
will be invested meaningfully for our future if
possible in your area of business and deterrents
sectors of the Economy in your country which are
dividends yielding.
Whatever your decision is please reach me immediately
through my Email, and keep this letter tight secret
for the interest of my family.
Best Regards
maTo: The President/Ceo.
