Subject: WE NEED YOUR HELP
Attn Pls,
Greeting in the name of the almighty good God. Firstly, let me introduce
myself, my name is Lugard Zhanga Am a Zimbabwe
citizen, presently a refugee here in Ghana.
am 18 years old I have a mother who is presently sick and a little sister
of 15 years old.
Well I have important issue I want to discuss with you and sincerely speaking
from the bottom of my heart I need your support in this issue that has been a
problem to I and my family.
My father (Desmond Zhanga) died as a good man fighting against the president of
Zimbabwe PRESIDENT ROBERT MUGABE who was taking away the farmland from the white
men who have been of great help in all aspect of our life and affecting the
people positively in Zimbabwe, and that is bad, my father choose to fight for
the white people and died for them because they were good people sent from God.
My father due to his stand over these issues fell out with the ruling party of
PRESIDENT ROBERT MUGABE. Now I and my kid sister and my mother had to flee from
our country to find refuge here in GHANA. Before the death of my father
he was a major dealer of Diamond and Merchandise.
He secretly moved these funds acquired from various sales into a bank in Ghana.
International Commercial Bank (ICB) Accra Ghana.
The total amount that was deposited in the bank is $28 MILLION USD.
We need a trust worthy and experience person that will help us to invest this money
in your country and take us as one family and will also buy a house for us over
there where we can live safely.
We are prepared to give you 20% of the money for that assistance. We are expecting
to hear from you. Waiting you for your anticipated cooperation.
