My name is MRS GRACE KHUMALO, the wife of MR.ALLAN KHUMALO. from Zimbabwe.
This might be a surprise to you about where I got your contact address. I
got your address from the South African Information center.
ALTHOUGH, IT IS NO LONGER NEWS,THE WORLD KNOWS THE WAY THE GOVERNMENT OF
ZIMBABWE IS MALTREATING THE WHITE FARMERS, THREATINING THEM TO LEAVE THE
COUNTRY.
During the current war against the farmers in Zimbabwe from the supports of
our President Robert Mugabe to claim all the white-owned farms to his party
members and his followers, he ordered all white farmer's to surrender all
their farms to his party members and his followers.
My husband is one of the best farmers in our country and because he did not
support Mugabe's ideas, Mugabe's supporters invaded my husband farm and
burnt everything in the farm, killing my husband and made away with a lot of
items in my husband's farm.
Before his death, my husband had deposited with one of the Security Company
in Johannesburg, South Africa the sum of US$15 Million (Fiftheen Million
United States Dollars). After the death of my husband, we escaped to the
Republic of South Africa where he had deposited the money in the Security
Company as valuables.
So I decided to contact overseas firms and companies that will assist me to
move this money out of South Africa. Now, all I want you to do is to furnish
me with your full addresses, your country of origin, your personal phone and
fax numbers, for easy ommunication. You can contact me on the above email
address.
Because of our status as asylum seekers we are not allowed to operate any
bank account within South Africa. We have agreed to offer you 15% of the
total sum for your assistance, 5% will be mapped out for any expenses that
may be incurred in the course of this transaction and 80% will be for me and

regarding to this transaction will be given to you the moment you respond
