Subject: FROM PASTOR COLLINS KHUMALO
FROM: PASTOR COLLINS KHUMALOTEL:+27 73 88 125 38ATTN: MD/CEO ,I am Pastor Collins Khumalo Zuma, the first son of Late Lufuno Zuma. I am a citizen of Swaziland. My father was the managing director of Lufuno Aluminium Company in Swaziland but very unfortunately he died in the year 2004 after a protracted illness. Due to poor management of the company in my country and for the fact that I am so dedicated to church activities,I realized that I will be unable to manage the company and so soon it may wind up.I also realized that I am too young to manage a large company of that type and most of the directors have already began to divert the net profit being generated from the company, I therefore arranged with my father's lawyer and sold the entire company to Mr. Alan Foster from Poland at the price of US$22,600,000 (Twenty Two million, Six Hundred Thousand Dollars.Due to constant pressure from some of my relatives and also fear of likely attack on my family to hijack the fund, I arranged with my mother to transfer the fund into a Bank here in Johannesburg, South Africa where I am currently staying with my mother and other two younger sisters. However, I am into pastorial activities now and I have most of my time dedicated to church activities.At the moment, we want to transfer the fund to oversea country for investment because there is no good investment atmosphere here in South Africa. I therefore need your assistance to enable me transfer the fund into your private/company's account over there so that we can relocate to plan for the investment of the fund through your personal assistance.I mostly need your assistance in investing the fund because I have little experience of investment/management of the fund. It is also my plan that after the successful transfer of the fund into your account there, I will first relocate my mother and other 2 sisters to stay with you while I will first go and complete my theological school outside South Africa.What I mostly need from you is honest and sincerity because this fund is my life and the life of my family. If you can assist us in this transaction, I will give you 30% of the total fund while 70% will remain in your account for 2 years to enable me complete my school and then join my other relatives to plan for our family investments.please if you can assist us, kindly send me an urgent email to indicate your interest and also the information's below to enable transfer the fund into your account.1 .Your account information's where the fund will be
