Subject: PLEASE ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
Dear Friend
I am Mrs N J. Savimbi. I am the wife to the late Jonas Savimbi,the late leader
of the national Union for The Total Independence of Angola (UNITA). My husband
was killed during fracas against government forces in Mexico,Angola on the
22nd of Feb. 2002.
I am contacting you because of my need to deal with person whom my family
had no previous relationship.Since the death of my husband, my family has
been subjected to all sorts of aggressive interrogation and intimidation
with lots of negative report emanating from the government of President Santos
about my husband. The current government has also ensured that all our notable
bank accounts are frozen, and all assets seized.
In view of this that I seek your assistance in investing and managing the
sum of Twelve Million United State Dollars in your country in an area of
,
Telecommunication
Manufacturing
Hotel management
Real Estate managemnt
Being the very last of my family funds in my possession and control unknown
to the government.This money now in question came as a result of Diamond
Royalties that was paid to my late husband from the Diamond mining within
the areas in Angola being controlled by (UNITA) for more than a decade.
The money was deposited in Finance/Security firm in europe by my late husband,the
fund can be conveyed to you with the assistance of our family lawyer in europe,i
have the certificate of deposite,our family group photograph and the photo
of the dead body of my late husband,i can forward you the photos as potential
prove,i will also forward you a comprehensive letter of mutual agreement
to fill and forward it back to me before the fund will be transferred to
you. Please,i do not want the usage of telephone conversation in this transaction,hence,
the present government has intensified their probe on my family's financial
resources; frozen all our known foreign & local accounts, revoked Diamond
licenses, and even detained my son (Charles) on alleged flimsy charges just
because my husband before his death was the head of UNITA.
I earmark Twelve percent (12%) of the total sum to you and two percent out
of that Twelve percent should be set aside to defray your domestic expenditure
that will be incurred during the transaction. Please,i want you to indicate
your interest in this transaction by sending your prompt response to me via
my private email which is divinekool@netscape.net .
Best regards,
Mrs N .Savimbi.
