DEAR SIR,
INSHA ALLAHU, I PRESENT THIS PROPOSAL TO YOU TO HELP ME SECURE THIS FUND.
This letter may come to you as a surprise because we have not met before but borne out of my sincere desire for assistance and to establish a business relationship with you, I got your contact from my late father!s friend , and now that my father is dead I believe you can be able to assist us invest this large sum of money we have in our possession. My name is Darryl Clarkson , my father Mr Thomas Clarkson was the Chairman of the Farmers Association in Zimbabwe. My late father was killed by Mr Robert Mugabes bodyguards because he did not support the seizure of white-mens farmlands in Zimbabwe. Since he died I have been living in Botswana under Refugee status.
When my father was alive, he handed over to me a certificate meant for a secret deposited trunk box which he made in a security company , he disclosed to me that the trunk box contains US$25MILLION DOLLARS. shortly after the death of my father , I received series of intimidation and harassments from the hands of President Robert Mugabe My fathers assets, companies and accounts were seized by the government and converted to government use
With the pressure of intimidation and bad governance, I travelled to Botswana under refugees status in search of a good friend to my late father who lives in the city I arrived only to discorver that the man has relocated to somewhere else. it is for this reason we are contacting you, so sir you should kindly not feel embarrashed receiving this letter from me. I have contacted the security company to confirm the deposit and have established ownership, but was disappointed as we dont want to appear for the claims because it is against section 22 of the refugees act of no 130 of 1998 of the human right law which stipulates that asylum seekers will not be allowed to operate a bank account or to owe an enterprise, We decided to solicit for your assistance in the withdrawal of the trunk box for investment purposes.
We cannot do it all alone due to our status and we are totally ignorant in business and investment, you will be given 30% of total sum at the end of the transaction, if you are trustworthy and interested in the proposal, pls contact me via my e-mail darrylclarkson@rediffmail.com <mailto:darrylclarkson@rediffmail.com> OR darryl_clarkson@yahoo.es <mailto:darryl_clarkson@yahoo.es> immediately for more details, you must maintain absolute confidentiality at all times to ensure success because no other person knows that money contains in that box except me and like I am telling you now.
Things required from you are: 1. To prepare and receive this consignments so that we can make arrangement to transfer the money to your bank account. to a safe account which you will provide. 2. To advise me on a viable sector where we can invest to make good use of the money. It is important to note that during my fact finding mission to establish ownership of the subject matter I decided to write you, with all hope that you will not betray the trust I want to impose on you.
I expect your timely response
Regards
Darryl Clarkson
