Dearest.
I got your contact from a business directory I just acquired and decided to
approach you very discreetly with this proposal of mutual trust and benefit.
I am Mrs. Amina Msika, 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 Malaysia, 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 my son
Email(mohammed.isma@yahoo.com) so that we can arrange for meeting, for the
moment, I am here in Malaysia with my Son (Master. Mohamed )on temporary
permit.The total of the deposited fund is Seven Million Five Hundred
Thousand Dollars. {$7.5m}.
Best Regards.
Mrs.Amina Msika
