Dearest
With due respect, trust and humility, I write to you this proposal, which I believe would be of great interest to you. I find your contact while I was doing a private research on the Internet for a reliable and capable foreign partner that will assist my family and I to transfer fund to his personal or private account and for investment purpose. I am Master Kenneth Gondo the son of Late MR. JAMES ZUMA GONDO, who was the "Chairman" of the farmer’s co-operation in Zimbabwe.
My Father was among the few blacks that were murdered in cold blood by the President Robert Mugabe Administration during the land dispute that just happened in Zimbabwe. After the death of my late Father, we decided to move out from ZIMBABWE because our lives were in danger because of the money that my father kept in the Security Company in Abidjan Cote D’Ivoire for the Company Investment in Swaziland. The amount contained in the safe is US $10.5M (Ten million, five hundred thousand US dollars).
This money was meant for the purchase of new machines and chemicals for the farms and establishment of new farms in Swaziland. Before his death he told me of the Deposit he made when he went for Business in Abidjan Cote D’Ivoire and He is a Major Share Holder of companies in Zimbabwe. After my late Father died we moved to Abidjan Cote d’Ivoire where he made the deposit of a Consignment and he declarer the box as valuables belonging to his foreign partner pending when we see somebody that will assist us transfer this Consignment out of this Country.
We are presently in Abidjan Cote D’Ivoire as Refugee (Asylum Seekers) and as such the law of Abidjan Cote D’Ivoire does not permit us to operate or open any bank account here in Abidjan Cote D’Ivoire or be involved in any financial transaction with the bank. That is why we contacted you to assist us in this transaction.
We are ready to compensate you with 20% of the total fund for accepting to assist us and also 10% is mapped out for the expenses that may be incurred during this transaction and 70% will be for me and my family to invest in you country, contact me on the above, through the email address and indicating your interest as soon as possible, on receiving of your acceptance, I shall be glad to give you more clarification on the modalities needed for smooth successful completion of this transaction.
I anticipate your quick response.
Best regard.
Master Kenneth Gondo.
(For and On behalf of my family)
