I am *MRS JOY. M .DURU*..*,* wife of late *Mr. PIUS DURU*, who was murdered by the Zimbabwean veterans and irate black people. I am writing from South Africa. I got your address from the Internet through the consultancy directory during my search for a reliable and honest person to transact this business with. I write to solicit for your special assistance to a family shattered by a tyrannical government led by a dictator and his (*ZANU-PF)* ruling party-president *Robert Mugabe*. Because of land and farm land crisis in Zimbabwe , the government secretly sponsored the war veterans and some irate party members to
dispossess the land being occupied by white farmers. This action has led to the killing of some members of opposition Party including my husband *(PIUS DURU.)* But before the death of my husband, he anticipated some dangers and so he deposited the sum of *US$18Million* *(Eighteen Million United States Dollars*) in the name of our only son *COLLINS DURU Jr, *with the help of reputable security company in South Africa with the intention of using it to open fertilizer manufacturing company among other companies in our neighboring country (Swaziland) after his university education.** On the *29th of June 2002*, the war veterans and some supporters of (*ZANU-PF)* ruling party trooped into our compound and axed him (my husband) to death. Since then, they have been terrorizing my only son, *COLLINS P DURU*, but we managed to escape to a neighboring country, South Africa as a political asylum seeker *(refugee). *But our position in South Africa does not permit us to open an account
or run any huge financial business. That is why I want this fund to be transferred into your private bank account so that you will assist him to invest it in your country. Hence, you agree to assist us, we will offer you *25%* of the money for your assistance, *5%* will be for the possible expenses incurred in the process of this transaction, while *70%* will be for our family investment in your country under your close supervision. I need your urgent and confidential response. You can contact my son through his phone number +*27-73-521-5113 or **Email: mrsjoymduru@hotmail.com* Thanks and God bless. Best regards,***MRS JOY.
