DEAR
I know the acknowledgement of this letter will sound surprising,
considering
the fact that, there wasn’t earlier information regarding this letter
.How
ever I discovered your information, I mean your e-mail address and your
data
through the south African exchange network on line, it was convincing
to
deal with you based on this information of yours.
I am MR JAMES KHUMALO TOBO, the only son of MARTIN KHUMALO TOBO from
Bulawayo-Zimbabwe.  My father was among the well to do farmers in
Zimbabwe
who was murdered in cold blood by the agent of the ruling junta of
President
Robert Mugabe for his alleged support for the opposition party, the
(D.M.C.). Before my fathers death he took me to Johannesburg – South
Africa,
to deposit the sum of US$18.5MILLION (Eighteen million five hundred
thousand
united state dollars)with a security company, as if he knew the looming
danger in Zimbabwe.
For diplomatic reason and to reduce the demurrage, my father deposited
this
money with the disguise that the actual content in the box was precious
item
valued at that amount, where by security company, in south
Africa are non legally entitled to transact money.
This money was meant for the purchase of machinery,but we could not
proceed
with the purchase, why?because the land problem arose again when
President
Robert Mugabe introduces a new land act , which wholly
affects all the rich  farmers in Zimbabwe . As a result of this
development
and the sudden death of my father, my family and I moved to South
Africa
where we are seeking asylum. Due to the clauses in my asylum status
that did
entitle me to do any banking transaction or invest such huge amount in
South
Africa.
Moreover, it is not my intention to invest in this country even if the
situation demands me to do that,because South Africa and Zimbabwe have
similar land problem. In respect to that, my good friend if you are
willing to assist me in this issue, I worked out 20% of the total sum
for
your assistance rendered 5% set aside for whatever financial expenses
encountered in the process of transferring this money outside South
Africa.
Be rest assured that this business is 100% risk free, because I have
worked
out modality for the smooth transfer of this money to your chosen
account
overseas, this is the requirements I need from you,
whereby I cannot transfer this money on my own. I request you to come
down
to Johannesburg – south Africa and open a non resident investment
account,where we will deposit this money after withdrawing it from the
security company. For onward transfer to your account in your country
after
that I will travel backwith you to your country and take my share of
75% or
in alternative invest my share in your country under your supervision.
If
you consider this worth doing, kindly contact me with the above
telephone
numbers.
Yours faithfully,
JAMES KHUMALO TOBO
FOR THE FAMILY.
