Late Mr. PHILIP NDLOVU . My father was assassinated
last two years in the war zone area in Zimbabwe.
My mother and my two younger sisters are presently in
South Africa, where we were granted political asylum.
I inherited the sum of (U.S.$22,700,000.00
(twentytwo million seven hundred thousand united states dollars)
from my father, these money has been successfully conveyed for me into
(GREECE)and was deposited in private security and finance company by my
late father,befor his death. I have every documents to this
fund including my father's last WILL.
My reason for contacting you is that this country is know longer a safe
place for my family investment for the fear of encountering the same
experience of my late father in future since the both countries has the
same political history and common boundary, based on this point we seek
for your assistance as a reliable partner to do this transaction with us Abroad.
