REQUEST FOR URGENT ASSISTANCE/INVESTMENT.

DEAR Friend,

This may appear a bit surprising to you but very beneficial; as a matter of urgentcy,
i am desparately looking for a foriegn partner whom i can trust to handle some
investmentor fund movement. I am MRS Mackintosh Malcom shengi,wife of late
MR.Malcom Kenneth Mackintosh, who was murdered by the Zimbabwean veterans and irrate
blackpeople.

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 RobertMugabe.

Because of land and farm land crisis in Zimbabwe, the government secretly sponsored
the war veterans and some irrate party members to disposess the land being occupied
by white farmers.This action has led to the killing of some members of opposition
party including my husband(Malcom Kenneth Mackintosh), For more information see this
site www.zimbabwesituation.com/farmilist.html,page 2 number 776 428 .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 ofUS$15.4m (Fifteen million four hundered Thousand United States Dollars)in
the name of our only son KENNETH JR ,with the help of reputable security company
in SOUTH AFRICA with the intention of using it to open fertilizer manufacturing
company among other companies in our neighbouring country (Swaziland)after his
university education.

On the 29th of June 2000, 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, KENNETH MACKKINTOSH, but he managed to escape to a
neighbouring 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 20% of the money for your assistance, 10% 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 urgent and
confidential response.

Best regards,
MRS Mackintosh Malcom .S.
FOR THE FAMILY

Upon your immediate response, I will immediately arrange and send to you all the
informations that will empower your good self in finalizing the transaction with the
security company in SOUTH AFRICA I will also send to you the agreement that will
protect both interest. And also further information about yourself is necessary for
i can not play on this.
