Dear Sir,
I was given your contact address in the chamber of commerce and industry here in Dubai while sorting for a reliable contact to assist me and our family in this
transactin.
I know you will be surprise to read from me, but please consider this
letter as a request from a family in dare need of assistance. I am
Dr Charles Kumani ,the only son of late Mr Bernard Kumani of Zimbabwe,
presently residing in Dubai.
On behalf of my widowed mother Mrs. Glory Kumani,I decided to
solicit for your assistance to move the sum of $20.5million Dollars
(Twenty million five hundred thousand United States Dollars)
inherited from my late father to your country for an onward investment
under your kind control.
My father was killed during the current war against farmers in Zimbabwe
from the support of our present HEAD OF STATES President ROBERT MUGABE to claim all the white owned farms to his NPF PARTY MEMBERS.
He ordered all the white farmers to surrender all their farms to his party members and followers.
My father was the owner of Kumani Estates (Pvt) Ltd one of the best farms in our country and because he did not support Mugabes` ideas, Mugabes supporters invaded my fathers farms and burnt down every thing in the farm, killed my father and made away with a lot of items in my fathers farm. Before my fathers death, he had deposited with one of the security and finance companies in Côte dIvoire, Abidjan the sum of US$20.5 million (Twenty million five hundred thousand United States Dollars). After the death of my father, I and my mother move to Côte dIvoire, Abidjan where my late dad had deposited the money with Security Company as valuables. Before my mother asked me to come over to Dubai in search of a reputable person to assist us.
We decided to contact an oversea firm or company that can assist
us move this money out of Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso, because my family is afraid of operating any bank account for now, since the present govt in my country is still after my father's remaining properties. According to the families wish,
We have agreed to offer you 20% of total sum for your assistance, 5%
has been mapped out for any expenses that may be incurred in the course of
this transaction and 75% will be for me and my family to invest in your country.
>From the above you will understand that the lives and future of my
family depends on this money. as such I will be very happy if you can
assist us, now all I want from you is to furnish me with your personal
telephone and fax numbers for easy communication. Note that this transaction is
100% risk free and absolutely confidential.
Waiting for your urgent responds.
Thanks and God bless.
Best regards,
Dr.Charles Daniels Kumani
