In a brief I am Mrs Jane Mupesa,wife to Ndoga Mupesa of Chiweshe ward in
Muzarabani, ashonaland Central province, who was allegedly killed in cold
blood on 5th April 2001 by alleged Zanu PF militias and war veterans for
supporting the (Mr Morgan Tsvangirai) Movement for democratic Change,
an opposition party to the tyranny government of President Robert Mugabe.
I have been thrown into a state of utter confusion, frustration and
hopelessness by the present civilian administration; I have been subjected
to physical and psychological torture by the security agents in the
country.
As a widow that is so traumatized, I have lost confidence with evrybody
within the country. You must have heard over the media reports and the
internet on the recovery of various huge sums of money deposited by my
husband in different security firms abroad, some companies willingly
give up their secrets and disclosed our money confidently lodged there and
many out rightly blackmail us. When my husband was alive I used to move
funds running into millions of United States Dollars to Brazil/Lebanon and
other Arab Countries.
However, on the eve of my husband's death on 5th April 2001, he gave me the
sum of U.S $39m(million) in cash to move to Lebanon ,but immediately my
husband died I moved the funds to a Security Firm through a diplomatic
courier service where the fund is right now.
The funds have been in the Finance Firm since 2001.Because of the
restriction placed on my family by the Zimbabwean Government, I Simply
cannot travel to secure the funds from the Security Firm where this said
amount was deposited, Please As soon as you confirm to me by e-mail
ourreadiness to assist me by furnishing me with the requested information's
bellow mmediately;
(1)Full names.
(2)Contact address.
(3)Telephone and fax numbers.
(4)Location.
I will give you more details pertaining this fund for you to get in contact
with the security company to authorize them to release the funds to you,
You will be entitled to 30% of the total sum involved for your kind gesture
and
assistance.
As soon as you have the funds in your custody, I will give you my account
details in the Bahamas where you will transfer my share to on my behalf.
Waiting for your urgent response.
God Bless You.
Mrs Jane Mupesa
Muzaraban-Zimbabwe
