Dear Friend.
CONFIDENTIAL PATNERSHIP IN BUSINESS
My name is Mr Tulani Moyo, the elder son of late Mr. Eric Moyo of Zimbabwe.
It might be a surprise to you, I got your contact address from the South
Africa Information Network Online(SAINL)/South Africa Trade Center (SATC).
During the current crises against the farmers of Zimbabwe by the supporters
of our President Robert Mugabe to claim all the white owned farms in our
country, he ordered all the white farmers to surrender their farms to his
party members and their followers. My father was one of the best
farmers in the country and knowing that he did not support the president`s
political ideology, the president`s supporters invaded my father`s farm
,burnt down everything, shot him and as a result of the wounds sustained, he
became sick and died after two days.And after his death, My mother and I
with my younger Brother decided to move out of Zimbabwe for the safety of
our lives to South-Africa.
BUT, before he died HE WROTE HIS WILL ,which reads "(MY BELOVEED SON ,I WISH
TO DRAW YOUR ATTENTION TO THE SUM OF $15.7 MILLION U.S DOLLARS, WHICH I
DEPOSITED IN A BOX
WITH A SECURITY COMPANY IN JOHANNESBURG (SOUTH-AFRICA). IN CASE OF MY
ABSENCE ON EARTH CAUSED BY DEATH ONLY".you should solicit for reliable
foreign partner to assist you to transfer this money out of SOUTH-AFRICA for
investment purpose.
I deposited the money in your Name "Tulani Moyo" and it can be claimed by
you alone with the deposit code, your mother has all the documents,Take good
care of your mother and brother." From the above, you will understand that
the lives and future of my family depends on this money as
much, I will be very grateful if you can assist us.We are now living in
South-Africa as POLITICAL ASYLUM SEEKERS and the financial law of
SOUTH-AFRICA does not allow ASYLUM SEEKERS certain financial rights to such
huge amount of money.
In view of this, I cannot invest this money in South-Africa, hence I am
asking you to assist us transfer
this money out of South-Africa for investment pusposes. For your efforts, I
am prepared to offer you 20% of the total fund, while 5% will be set aside
for local and international expenses and 75% will be kept for my family and
I(ME).
Finally ,modalities on how the transfer will be done will be conveyed to you
once we establish trust and confidence between ourselves.Looking forward to
your urgent reply.
NOTE: THE KEY WORD TO THIS TRANSACTION IS ABSOLUTE CONFIDENTIALITY AND
SECRACY. THIS TRANSACTION IS 100% RISK FREE. YOUR URGENT RESPONSE WILL BE
HIGHLY APPRECIATED.
All the best,
Tulani. (FOR THE FAMILY) .
