From: sarami <sarami1@di-ve.com>
Date: Sun, 05 Mar 2006 22:55:02 +0100
Subject: STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL
From:Mrs.M Sarami Mnzike
Suite 23-30,LION Towers
Zimbabwe
Dear One
Don't be surprised to receive this letter from me since you don't know
me in person. For the purpose of introduction I am Mrs.M Sarami Mnzike
from Zimbabwe the wife of Mr.John Mnzike who was murdered in the land
dispute in Zimbabwe by the agents of the ruling government of President
ROBERT MUGABE for his alleged support and sympathy for the opposition
MDC PARTY led by the minority white famers.
My husband was among the few black Zimbawean rich famers murdered in
cold blood by the war vetrans backed by the government. Before the death
of my husband, he went BERLIN to deposit the sum of US$20.5M (Twenty
Million Five hundred thousand United State Dollars) With one of the
security company in BERLIN, as if he knew the looming danger in
ZIMBABWE. The money was deposited as a gem and precious stone to avoid
much demurrage from the security firm. The money was earmarked for the
purchase of new machinery and chemicals for the farms and the
establishment of new farms in Lesotho and Swaziland. This Land problem
arose when President Robert Mugabe introduced a new land act. Which
wholly affects the white rich farmers and some few blacks vehemently
condemned the "Modus operandi" adopted by the government.
This resulted to rampart killing and Mob actions. My Son and I are
staying in London as an Asylum seeker, I have decided to transfer
this money to a foreign country where we can invest it. I am faced with
the dilemma of investing this amount of money in London England for fear
of encountering the same experience in future since both countries have
the same political policy/law does not allow investment hence I am
seeking for an asylum or refugees.
I must let you know that this business is 100% risk free and the nature
of your business does not necessary matter. So if you are willing to
assist us , I and my family have agreed to give you 25% of the total
money,70% will be for me and my family, the remaining 5% will be mapped
out for all expenses, we might incur during the transaction .
Therefore if you are willing and interested to render the needed
assistance, endeavor to reply through my mail .I also need your private
telephone and fax numbers for easy communication. Remember that this is
highly confidential and success of this business depends on how secret
it is kept. Expecting your reply soonest.
Best regards,
Mrs.M Sarami Mnzike(For The FamilyI).
