ATTENTION: The President / ceo,
How are you today? I know you may be surprised to receive this letter. But
since you don't know me in person for the purpose of introduction,
I am DANIEL KHUMALO, the son of late MR. DAMBA KHUMALO, I got your contact
through the South African Business Manual in my search for a trusted partner
to do business with and I assure you that nobody knows about this
transaction. Before the death of my father,he took me to Johannesburg City
to deposit the sum of US$12.5 Million (Twelve Million, Five Hundred Thousand
United States Dollars) in a private Security /Finance Company, when He
foresees the looming danger in Zimbabwe.
This amount was meant for the purchase of new machines and chemicals for the
farms and also for the establishment of a new farm in Swaziland.
My late father was one of the best farmers in our country. The land disputes
started when our President MR. ROBERT MUGABE introduced a new Land Act
reform which wholly affected the rich white farmers and some few black
farmers, for the purpose of acquiring all the white-owned farms to his party
members and followers. He ordered all the white farmers to surrender their
farms to his party members and followers, this resulted to many killings by
Zimbabwe war veterans and some lunatics in the society.
In fact, my father was one of his victims, because he was totally against
PRESIDENT MUGABE'S ideas. It is on this background that I am currently
staying in South Africa as refugee, has decided to transfer my fathers
inherited money to a foreign country,since the laws of South Africa
prohibits refugees have a bank account or to be involved in any financial
transaction throughout the territorial zones of South Africa.
Please, I need your assistance to transfer this fund to your trusted bank
account. For your assistance, I have agreed to give you 25% of the total
sum,while 5% is mapped out to re-imburse every expenses that would be
incurred in the cause of actualizing this transaction and 70% will be for my
family business investments in your country.
*NOTE: This transaction is 100% risk-free, as I have made every necessary
arrangements for a successful deal.The ONLY thing I solicit from you is
total cooperation, complete trust and assurance that my share will be safe
when transferred to your bank account. Do, keep this business proposal
strictly confidential for security reasons. If you are interested to assist
me.
Call or send me reply via my above phone number & email address . Also
include your private phone and fax numbers. I will reply you very urgently.
Awaiting your urgent reply, God Bless.
Sincerely Yours,
DANIEL KHUMALO
