Subject: FROM MR MARTIN
MR.Martin BernardTEL-27-83-423-1447 Coloret Drive Road, JBH. SOUTH AFRICA.
ATT; Ceo/Manager.
PROPOSAL FOR URGENT BUSINESS ASSISTANCE.
My name is Mr Martin Bernard ,the elder son of Mr. Jomo.Bernard of Zimbabwe.This might be a suprise to you about where i got your contact address.I got your address from a reliable source here in Johnnesburg,South Africa.
During the cuurent war against the farmers in Zimbabwe from the support of our President. Robert Mugabe to claim all the white -owned farms to his party members and his followers,he ordered all the white farmers to surrender all their farms to his partymembers and his followers.
My father is one of the best farmers in our country and because he did not support Mugabes ideas,Mugabes supporters invaded my fathers farm and burnt everything in the farm,killing my father and made away a lot of items in my fathers farm. Before his death,my father had deposited with one of the Security Company in Johannesburg, South Africa the sum of US$15.5M.(Fifteen million and Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars).
After the death of my father,we decided to move to the Republic of South Africa where he had deposited the money in the Security Company as valuables.So I decided to contact overseas firms and individuals that will assist me to move this money out of South Africa because, as asylum seekers we are not allowed to operate any bank account within South Africa.
We have agreed to offer 20% of the total sum for your assistance,10% will mapped out for any expenses that may be incurred in the course of this transaction and 70% will be for me and my family to Invest in your country. All I want you to do is to furnishme with your entire personal phone and Fax numbers for easy communication.
You can contact me on the above Telephone Number.Note that this transaction is 100% risk free and absolutely confidential.
Thanks and God bless.
Best Regards Mr Martin Bernard.
