RE: REQUST FOR URGENT JOINT PARTNERSHIP.
Dear Sir,
How are you today, I know this mail may come to you as a surprise regarding the business transaction I am about introducing to you. More so, if you would not want to participate in this transaction, I appeal you keep it to yourself.
First I must to introduce my self properly to you; I am Dr. Willson Chilaka, Director Account General Manager, Metropolitan Bank of Zimbabwe Limited.
RE: PREPOSITION:
After the last General Election in my Country Zimbabwe where the incumbent President, Mr. Robert Mugabe won the Presidential Election that has kept him in power for the last 24 years, his Government has adopted a very aggressive land programmed. This program is solely aimed at taking lands owned by White African Farmers for redistribution to Black Farmers. This program has attracted Worldwide condemnation from World Leaders President, Prime Minister and the International Bodies. This has also forced several White farmers to flee the Country for fear of victimization and Physical abuse by their fellow blacks farmers.
Mr. Edward Coleman Schneider, a Farmer was the Director, NPK Farms Limited and was an Account Holder with our bank. In 2002, Mr. Edward was attacked by black protesters who looted and burnt down his farm, building and destroyed vital Documents belonging to him and unfortunately in the process, he died. Before his sudden death, he heard a balance deposit value of (USD$10.2M) Ten Million Two Hundred Thousand Dollars only in his personal Domiciliary account with our bank. After his death his Company account was closed by his Zimbabwean Wife, unknown to her she knew nothing about Mr. Edward’s personal Domiciliary account with our bank. The account has been dormant and the money has been floating in the bank expecting his wife who is not aware of his account with us or relatives to claim the fund.
My purpose of contacting you is this: As his Account Officer, I know that Mr. Edward Coleman Schneider is a German and Naturalized in Zimbabwe. I seek for your cooperation and assistance to act as the Next-of-Kin so that the money will be transferred to you for our own benefit and investment. All vital Documents regarding the account deposit are all in my possession and will be used to normalize the transfer of the fund to your account as the Beneficiary/Next-of-Kin.
Further more, be fully assured that this transaction is 100% risk free. You need not to panic because, as an insider in the bank, all vital documents to back up the claim and transfer are in place and shall be perfected by me. Subsequent to this, you will get 30% of the total sum for your kind assistance, 70% for me as the initiator.
Finally, if you are willing to assist me, kindly respond immediately as the bank is about closing the account and write off the fund as bad debt.
Expecting your urgent reply.
Best Regards,
DR WILLSON CHILAKA
Director, AGM
