URGENT FUND TRANSFER ASSISTANCE
Dear One,
This may appear a bit surprising to you but very beneficial, as a matter of urgency, i am desparately looking for a foriegn partner whom i can trust to handle some investment or fund movement. I am mr Collins dorman son of late MR. Edward DORMAN, who was murdered by the Zimbabwean veterans and irrate black people. I am writing from Austria . I got your address from the internet through the consultancy directory during my search for a reliable and honest person to transact this business with. I write to solicit for your special assistance to a family shattered by a tyrannical government led by a dictator and his (ZANU-PF) ruling party- president Robert Mugabe.
Because of land and farm land crisis in Zimbabwe, the government secretly sponsored the war veterans and some irrate partymembers to disposess the land being occupied by white farmers. This action has led to the killing of some members of opposition party including my father(DORMAN EDWARD ) who did not support this ill-fated action.But before the death of my father, he anticipated some dangers and so he deposited the sum of US$6.5m (six million five hundered Thousand United States Dollars) in my name at a reputable security company in NETHERLAND-EUROPE with the intention of using it to open fertilizer manufacturing company among other companies in our neighbouring country (Swaziland)after his university education. On the 29th of July, 2001, the war veterans and some supporters of (ZANU-PF)ruling party trooped into our compound and axed him(my father) to death.
Since then, they have been terrorizing me , but i managed to escape to a country, Austria in europe as a political asylum seeker (refugee). That is why I want this fund to be transferred into your private account so that you will assist me to invest it in your country.
Hence,if you agree to assist me, i will offer you 15% of the money for your assistance, 5% will be for the possible expenses incurred in the process of this transaction, while the remaining will be for our investment in your country through your assistance.
I need your urgent and confidential response.
Upon your immediate response, I will immediately arrange and send to you all the INFORMATIONS that will empower your smooth transaction with the security company in NETHERLAND-EUROPE and I will also send to you the agreement that will protect both interest. And further information about yourself is necessary for i can not play on this.You can as well read more about the crises in my country and about this situation on the following sites: <http://www.cnn.com/2001/WORLD/africa/08/12/violence.zimbabwe/>
