PROPOSAL FOR URGENT ASSISTANCE
DEAR: PRESIDENT/CEO
With due respect, trust and humility, I write you this proposal, which I believe would be of great interest to you. I found your
contact while I was doing a private research on the Internet for a reliable and capable foreign partner that would assist my
family and me. I am EUNICE ROSSMAN the wife of MR. DENNIS ROSSMAN of Zimbabwe.
During the current war against farmers in Zimbabwe and from the support of our PRESIDENT ROBERT MUGABE to claim all
the white owned farms in our country, all the white farmers were ordered to surrender their farms to his party members and his
followers due to their selfish political interest.
My husband who was one of the richest & best farmers in our country, and also the treasurer of the farmers co-operation did
not support his idea and so the party members (ZANUPF) invaded my husband farms and burnt everything in the farm, killed
my husband and made away with a lot of items in the farm.
After the death of my husband, I and my children decided to move out of Zimbabwe with the money my husband kept in his
hidden safe in my house because our lives were in danger. The amount contained in the safe is US$21.3M (Twenty-One
Million Three Hundred Thousand United States Dollars) and we decided to code the money and move to the Republic of
South Africa a neighboring country to Zimbabwe, where I deposited the money in a Security Company for safe keeping as a
family treasure.
So I decided to make contacts with a foreign partner whom will assist us to move this money out of South Africa, because
we are asylum seekers here in South Africa, and the law of the country does not permit us some civil rights such as owing or
operating a bank account due to our status as refugees. So if you consider this proposal, we have agreed to give you 30%
of the total sum for helping us to move this money out to your country and 10% will be mapped out for expenses both of us
may incure during this transaction and 60% will be for me and my children to invest in your country as we have decided to
leave South to reside permanently oversea. All I want is for you to furnish me with all your banking details and your personal
phone and fax numbers for easy communication. You can contact me on the above Tel /fax numbers.
NOTE: That this transaction is 100% risk free and absolutely confidential.
Best regards,
EUNICE ROSSMAN(MRS.)
(For The Family).
