Dear Sir/Madam,
REQUEST FOR MUTUAL ASSISTANCE
My name is Mrs. Rose Jane, the elder Sister of late Mr. James Jane a great farmer in Zimbabwe; it might be a surprise for you to receive letter and most especially where I got your contact address. I got your contact information from the global trade agent under the South African chamber of commerce and industries.
During the current crisis against the farmers in Zimbabwe by the supporters of President Robert Mugabe to claim all white owned farms in the country, he ordered all white farmers to surrender their farms to his party members and his supporters.
My farther was one of the black farmers that worked along side with the white farmers and opposed the president action towards the white farmers. Being well known for his relationship with the white farmers, the president supporters invaded my father's farm and destroyed everything. My father was at the same time killed on the process of fighting back the invaders and the president gave order to confiscate all our properties including the farmland. After this incident, my mother and I decided to move out of Zimbabwe for the safety of our lives.
When we arrive to South Africa, my mother was contacted by a family friend who now stays in South Africa because of the civil unrest in my country Zimbabwe. My mother was then informed of a certain amount of money instructed as a deposit of precious stones and personal effects with a private security and finance company amounting to US$22,000,000.00 (Twenty-Two Million United States Dollars). My mother and I have decided to transfer this sum in question to a reliable person/company overseas for investment, as we do not have intention of going back to my country Zimbabwe any more.
Due to our present status in South Africa and the nature by which we entered into south-Africa, we do not reserve the right to operate or maintain a foreign currency dominated account as refugees, which is why in the first place your assistance is solicited. As soon as you receive this urgent message, please get back to us on either of the above e-mail address for us to discuss in details the process of moving this fund out of South Africa.
I confirm that this transaction is 100% risk-free neither to you or us.
Yours truly,
Mrs. Rose Jane.
