Dear Sir/Madam,
Thanks for finding time to go through my mail. I am Mrs. Fatima Hinga, the wife of lieutenant colonel
John Garang Hinga the Leader of Sudanese People's Liberation Movement (SPLM) one of the leading
political parties in Sudan which was formed in 1983. He died during the out brake of the recent
civil war in Sudan. Before his death, he held many important offices which includes being the prime minister
in a coalition government between 1986 to 1989. He also was the leader of the Umma Party a strong
political organization in Sudan. After his tenure as coalition prime minister, he was made to be in-charge
of the payment of Sudanese Media communications department in 2001. My husband was killed
by a group known as Sadiq al Mahdi at the on set of the civil war while fighting for the liberation of the
Sudanese people from the hands of a dictatorship government.
I am 61 years old now and seriously ill although I am now receiving treatment
in a hospital here in Thailand. During the period of our marriage we were blessed with a male child by name
George Hinga who is also here taking care of me. After the death of my husband,
I inherited a huge amount of money which my late husband deposited with a Security &
Finance Company in Thailand for safe keeping. I now decided to contact you to assist me and my son
to claim this money from where it was deposited and probably guide us in investing
the fund in a worthwhile flourishing business over there.
I hereby ask for your help and assistance. Although I am a novice in business, I have an eye on rigid properties.
Your advise on other areas of private sector will be highly appreciated. I believe that you would
be of great help in guiding my son to a successful business investment in your country
even when I am gone as we will be relying on you.
I will appreciate if you will show interest in collaborating with us as this transaction
will benefit both of us mutually should we embark on joint venture partnership.
Furthermore should you opt for financial reward, I am ready to give you a good negotiable percentage cash
reward for your assistance. Detailed information on other proceedings will be made available
to you upon receiving your reply showing interest in collaborating with us as I look forward to your urgent reply.
Sincerely Yours
Fatima Hinga.
