A CRY FOR HELP

reliable person who will assist my family out of this predicament here in South Africa.
I am FRANK NKHOSI, a son of a rich farmer in Zimbabwe Late SIR NKHOSI JONES. 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.$20,700,000.00 (twenty million, seven hundred thousand united states dollars)
from my father, these money has been successfully conveyed for me into EUROPE (SPAIN) and was deposited in
private security and finance company by my late father as a consignment before his death. I have every
document to this fund.
My reason for contacting you is that this country is know longer a safe place for my family. We are afraid
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. If you are interested in assisting us to invest this money
in your country or becoming my partner in business, please try to contact me on the above number as soon as
possible. Endeavor to keep this transaction private and confidential, Because it's my family lifetime future
investment.
What will be your percentage for assisting us? Best Regard.
MR FRANK NKHOSI
