Dearest
Good day; I know how surprise this massage will be to you since we have never meet or interacted before my name is Miss. JECINTA KHUMALO, the only daughter of a great farmer Mr. MPOYO KHUMALO of Zimbabwe. This might be a surprise to you where I got your contact address; I got your address from South African Information Exchange (S.I.E) in Johannesburg. During the current war against the farmers in Zimbabwe from the supporters of our president Robert Mugabe to claim all the white-owned farms to his party members and his followers, president Robert Mugabe ordered all the white- owned farmers to surrender all their farms to his party members and his farmers in our country and because my father did not support his idea, President Robert Mugabe supporters invaded my father's farm and burnt everything in the farm, killing my father and my mother my brother (JACOB) and I survived it because we were still at school when the incident happened and they made away
with a lot of items in my father's farm.
After the death of my father, my brother and I decided to move out from Zimbabwe to South Africa because our lives were in danger but before the death of our father he deposited in a private security company in South Africa the sum of US$20M (Twenty Million, Dollars), which he drew our attention in case if anything happens to him as if he knew what was about to happen and this money is deposited as family valuables so that is why we decided to contact overseas Firm/person that will assist us to transfer this money out of South Africa. Because we are asylum seekers here in South Africa, which our status disqualifies us from operating an account or getting involved in any financial transaction. We have agreed to give you from the total sum 30% for helping us to transfer this money to your country and 10% is mapped out for any expenses that might be incurred by any party while 60% will be for my brother and I to invest in your country.
If you are interested please kindly furnish us with your personal phone and fax numbers for easier communication. You can contact us on the above telephone number. Note this transaction is 100% risk-free and it requires mutual trust and absolute confidentiality and your urgent response will be highly appreciated in this regards.
Thanks and God Bless
Best regards
MISS. JECINTA And Mr. JACOB KHUMALO (for the family)
