Dear Brother,

courtesy of the International Chamber of commerce and Industry,of my
country.
I am Mr John Egondi Savimbi. My father was the External Affiars
Minister in the government of Angola rebel leader, Jonas Savimbi. At
the mid of the rebellion which is still on till this day, my father thinking
fast dicided to send me and my mother out of Angola because the fate
of our country was yet to be decided.
My mother and I left Angola for swazland with a total sum of US$15.5
Million (Fifteen million ,five hundred thousand US Dollars), sealed in a
diplomatic baggage meant for the purchase of arms from South Africa
On Arrival in swazland, because we are political asylum seekers, we were
not allowed to operate a bank account.
Meanwhile the said money was deposited with a security company in
europe which i will disclose to you upo your axceptance. So with the
instruction of my father , I contacted our family lawyer to deposited
the money in a security company.
Though I instructed him not to reveal the content of the baggage to
the security company nor declare the actual content to it, because we
wanted to be on safer side.
I instructed him to tell them them that the baggage belongs to my
foreign affiliate who is the beneficiary of the item.and will come
for claims when ever he is ready, Unfortunately, because of my fathers
political position and influence he was assasinated. Since then, we

investment because i will invest my own share of the money in your country and
