Date: Sat, 18 Mar 2006 08:39:56 +0200
Subject: Very Urgent
FROM: MR. JASPER MOYO
TEL: +27- 83 961 3820
FAX: +27- 72 739 7520 STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL
RE: TRANSFER OF 15.5 MILLION
ATTN: MANAGING DIRECTOR,
You will be surprised to receive this letter since you dont know me
personally, but do treat this request as a call from somebody in dire need
of your kind assistance. For the purpose of introduction,
I am JASPER MOYO the eldest son of Mr. Angus MOYO, who was recently murdered
with other whites in the land dispute violence in Zimbabwe.In my keen
interest to invest in your country, I got your contact through South African
information Exchange (S.A.I.E) here in Johannesburg, South Africa and
decided to write for assistance. My late father was among the few black
Zimbabwean rich farmers killed by squad of the ruling government of
president Robert Mugabe on the 12th of March 2003 for this alleged support
and sympathy for the Zimbabwe opposition party controlled by whites. Before
his death, he had taken me to Johannesburg where he deposited the sum of
15.500.000.00 (Fifteen Million, Five hundred Thousand United State Dollars)
with a Security and Finance Company of safe keeping as if he foresaw the
looming danger that could erupt from the farm struggle in Zimbabwe. This
money was deposited in a box as a consignment labeled FAMILY TREASURE: with
the security Company. This was informed as not to allow the company
management has the
knowledge of the real content of the box for obvious safety reasons. This
money as earmarked for the purchase of machineries and agro-chemical for the
farms and the establishment of new
farms-settlements in Lesotho and Swaziland.
This land problem arose when President Robert Mugabe introduced a new Land
Acts, which wholly affected the rich white farmers and some objective
blacks. This resulted to forceful ejection of whites from their lands,
rampant killings, arose and mob actions by the war veteran and some
political thugs. Precisely, more than one hundred and seven (107) people
have been killed and many others maimed for life in the past and up till
July 2003. BBC and CNN has reported of killings in the farmland violence.
Heads of government from the Western World, especially Britain and United
State of America have voiced their condemnation over Mugabes obnoxious land
acts. Subsequently the Southern African Development Community (S.A.D.C) has
continuously supported Mugabes New Land Reform Act. It is against this
background that I and my family who are currently staying in South Africa
have desired to transfer this money out of South Africa into a trust foreign
account.
As the eldest son of my father, I am saddled with the responsibility of
seeking a genuine foreign account where this money could be transferred to,
without the knowledge of Zimbabwean government who has tactically frozen my
familys wealth. Secondly, my mother is presently sick of HEART DISEASE and
the need to fly her out for a medical operation is very important. But how
can we fly without this fund. Presently we are residing temporarily in
Johannesburg pending
the outcome of an appeal filed on our behalf by our attorney for the
Department of Home Affairs to grant us asylum status. At the moment we are
in dilemma to the fiscal laws in habiting South African
Refugees on monetary policy. We request that this proposal should be granted
so that we can be able to transfer this money to your nominated account
outside South Africa for investment purposes.
I must let you know that this transaction is 100% risk free as far as you
keep it secret, the modalities to this transfer is ready with the help of
our family lawyer, a member of a Bank Board, a South
African who by his help will finished all the arrangements the way this
money should be transferred easily. But the problem we are facing is how to
get an honesty and responsible person that can keep
this money safe stand as beneficiary. If you can sincerely assist us with
the whole of your heart to transfer this fund into your nominated bank
account, please send a return fax to me as quickly as
possible, give me your confidential phone and fax number for more
information. Please respond to enable me know your decision.
Yours Sincerely,
MR JASPER MOYO.
