Dear friend,
My proposal to you will be very surprising as we have not had any
personal contact. However I sincerely seek your confidence in this
transaction which I propose to you as a person of transparency and caliber
Let me first start by introducing myself properly to you My name is Aibu
Savimbi cousin and Personal Assistant of Jonas Malheiro Savimbi the leader
UNITA (National Union for the Total independence of Angola) I got your email
address from network directory I apologize if I infringed on your privacy.
You may know that my Uncle was recently killed in a battle with the
government troops of Angola led by President Dos Santos on friday 22nd
February 2002. Now Mr Antonio Dembo who was my Uncle's second in command has
assumed office as leader of UNITA In spite of this UNITA is like a herd of
cattle without shepherd Prominent members like Carlos Morgado are still
lobbying to oust him and assume office as leader to enrich themselves and
some of them who see me as a threat to their ambitions including Mr Dembo
are planning to kill me For more information check www.angola.org
However I am a young man who has ambitions and I am not in any way
interested in wars this is why I secretly left Angola .
I am sincerely seeking for your urgent help in respect to safekeeping of
some of my Uncle's money that arose from Diamonds sales. This money US$20
million was already on its way to my Uncle's Swiss Bank account It was on
transit with a safe deposit company in Europe when the tragic incident of my
Uncle's death occurred. As a matter of fact this is the reason I chose to
come and seek
political asylum. It is very clear with the way things are now that
President Dos Santos will lobby the International Community
to freeze my Uncle's assets and accounts abroad to ground UNITA since he has
already done this in Angola.
I plan to use this money to safeguard my future It is very essential
that you understand that the kind of trust and confidence I want to put in
you is extraordinary and an act ofdesperation on my part in order not to
lose this money Please treat this contact with utmost secrecy and

security company after which it will be deposited in an account in your name
. The money shall remain in your custody till my asylum application is
granted and I have the permit to conduct business then you will transfer the
account to me Meanwhile the money can be invested into risk-free profitable
ventures and there will an agreement to protect my interest.

security company.To make this deal relisable i need a committment from you
that it will be kept confidential,your tel nd fax numbers including mobile
for easy communications,your permanent address as well as some form of

non-interest on your part.
