Dear Sir.
I am Mrs. Mudiwa, wife of Joseph Msika former vice President of Zimbabwe, as you may know, my country is in shamble now due to stubborn attitude of our President Robert Mugabe, , he sacked my husband from the vice president seat because he refused to obey some of his Evil policies , for the moment our family is been intimated and harassed by the government authority, my husband is presently under house arrest.
I need your help to secure the fund he deposited here in Thailand, it was the only hope we have to survive now as most of our property and money in Zimbabwe have been seized .
If you are willing to assist me, kindly get back to me by mail or call me on the number above so that we can arrange for meeting, for the moment, I am here in Thailand with my Son{ Chamakomo} on temporary permit.
The total of the deposited fund is Five Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars. {$5.5m}.
Best Regards.
Mrs. Mudiwa Joseph Msika
