Dear Sir,
I got your contact courtesy of the South African chamber of commerce and Industry business Directory here in Johannesburg; My name is MRS TINA ALI MUHAMMA, the former wife of DEFENCE MINISTER ALI BEN BONGO MUHAMMA of the republic of GABON in Central Africa. I and my only son are presently residing in Johannesburg, South Africa where we are seeking political Asylum following the latest dissolution of our 23 year-old marriage.
Before my marriage with the defence minister Ali ben bongo Muhamma finally broke-up, I was able to move out some reasonable sum of Money in US$ currencies out of the Presidential Villa in Libreville, which I intend to invest for myself and my only son. This fund amounts to a total of US$18million (eighteen million Dollars). this money is safely kept in the security vault of a private security company in Johannesburg pending when I will find a trusted foreign business partner.
I am interested in any business you think can be very viable in your country as long as the business will not fail me because the lives of me and my son depends on this money as we may never in life go back to his father who out rightly abandoned us. In your reply please indicate a few businesses you think will be of mutual benefit to both myself and yourself. We will be glad to part with a reasonable percentage of the total fund to you for all your assistance towards moving this money out of Johannesburg to your country and helping us in term of reasonable investment opportunities that will be of mutual benefit to my family and also your humble self.
Please indicate you’re willing and also include your private phone and fax numbers for quicker communication, the above numbers are my private telephone and email address ; tina_ali_muhamma@yahoo.com for further enquiries, you may wish to call me or my son on the above telephone numbers. or you can email my son on his private email address ;prince_musa_muhamma@yahoo.com
Please maintain absolute confidentiality of this privileged piece of information and proposal as it is never the wish of me and my son that His father (Ali bongo Muhamma)ever know our way about for life. Hoping to meet you very soon as our business relationship improves.
God bless you as we await your favourable reply,
MRS TINA AND PRINCE MUSA ALI BONGO MUHAMMA.
