INVITATION FOR PARTNERSHIP
DEAR SIR/ MADAM,
With due respect trust and humility I write to you this proposal which I
believe would be of great interest to you. I found your contact while I was
doing a private research on the Internet for a reliable and capable foreign
partner that will assist my family and I to transfer funds to his personal
or private account and for investment purpose. I am Mrs. Polly Bongani the
wife of Late Mr. Ernest Bongani, who was the "Chairman" of the farmer’s
co-operation in Zimbabwe.
My Husband was among the few blacks that were murdered in cold blood by the
President Robert Mugabe’s Administration during the land dispute that just
happened in Zimbabwe. After the death of my Husband, we decided to move out
of ZIMBABWE because our lives were in danger because of the money that my
Husband deposited in a private security company in South Africa before his
death. The amount is $18,000,000 (EIGHTEEN MILLION UNITED STATES
DOLLARS).
This money was meant for the purchase of new machines and chemicals for the
farms and establishment of new farms in Swaziland. After my husband died we
moved to South Africa.
I have concluded arrangement with the board of trustee’s of the Security
Company to transfer the deposit to oversea country where it will be easily
accessible to me. This frame of mind is to ensure the fund safety because of
political instability in Africa in general and for hitch free
redeeming/transferring of our money to a safe bank account, and the Company
informed that they can only transfer such value/volume of deposit to the
following continents (Europe, Asia, America,Middle East), where they
informed that they have affiliate office.
The idea involving you in this transaction is for you to assist me receive
this deposit as final receiver/beneficiary in any of the countries as they
may inform and assist me in transferring this money to your overseas account
for investment purposes outside African continent for my family and me. I
have also decided to move some one from my stead to meet with you in the
Country in order that both of you can successfully handle this transaction
for me to fruition upon establishing trust, the code/password for release
will equally be handed over to whosoever coming from my stead to meet with
you for easy claim of deposit by both of you without difficulty.
We are presently in South Africa as Refugee (Asylum Seekers) We are ready to
give you 30% of the total amount for the inconveniences this will cost you
and for accepting to assist us, contact my son on the above email or
telephone number, indicating your interest as soon as possible, on receiving
of your acceptance, We shall be glad to give you more clarification on the
modalities needed for smooth successful completion of this transaction.
I anticipate your quick response.
Best regards,
Mrs. Polly Bongani
