my search for a reliable and reputable person to handle a
very
confidential transaction which involves a transfer of fund
to a foreign account
and I decided to write you. During the current war against
the rich
white farmers in Zimbabwe, from the supports of our
president Robbert
Mugabe to claim all the white owned farms to his own party
members and his
followers, he ordered all the white farmers in Zimbabwe to
surrender
all their farms to his party members and his followers.
My father is one of the best farmers in our country, and
because he did
not support Mugabe's idea, Mugabe's supporters invaded my
father's farm
and burnt everything in the farmland, killing my father and
made away
with all the things in my father's farm. Before his death,
my father had
deposited with one of the security company in Johannesburg
South
Africa, the sum of $US 20.5(TWENTY MILLION FIVE HUNDRED
THOUSAND U.S
DOLLARS). Then after the death of my father, my family
decided to move to South
Africa where my father had deposited the money. So I
decided to contact
overseas partner that will assist me to mo! ve this money

cannot operate any
account. we have aggreed to offer you 20% of the total sum
