Dear Sir/Madam,
PLEASE CAN YOU KANDLY HELP US IN THIS TRANSACTION?
After some difficulties I was forced to express our family situation to you
through email. I got your address from the intenet, website of South African
Chamber of Commerce in johannesburg, South Africa. My name is Trevor
Moyo,the elder son of late Mr Fidelis Moyo, of Masingo Province of Zimbabwe.
My father was one of the richest farmers in Zimbabwe and he was Treasurer to
the members of the Zimbabwe's famers asociations[Z.F.M], Because he were not
in support of President Mugabe's ideas to claim all the white-owned farms to
his party members and his followers,. President Mugabe's, supporters invaded
my father's farm and burnt everything in the farm, killing my father and
made away with a lot of items in my father's farm.
Before my father's death he made it known to me that he has deposited with
one of the Security Company in Johannesburg, South Africa the sum of US
$30.7 Million (Thirty Million, Seven Hundred Thousand United States
Dollars).
After his death we were forced to move to the Republic of South Africa where
he had deposited the money in the Security Company because his murderers
knowing that we identify them, also were after our lives.
After going through your profile, I believe that somebody like you will be
capable of handling this kind of transaction so I decided to contact you to
assist us to transfer this found out of South Africa into your account in
your country because as we are (Refugee)Asylum seekers we are limited in so
many areas, we are not allowed to operate any bank transaction within South
Africa.
We whould like you to assist us on any profitable business we can invest
this found on, in your country. We have also agreed to offer you 30% of the
total sum for your assistance, 10% will be mapped out for any expenses that
we may incurred in the course of this transaction and 60% will be for me and
my family .
I have all the documents that was use to deposite this fund and I am willing
to send them to you. If you are willing to assist us, kindly furnish me with
your personal phone and fax numbers for easy communication. I asure you that
this transaction is absolutely confidential.
Please feel free to email us through our private email address given bellow
as I have no phone now.
Best Regards,
Trevor Moyo
(for the family}
