Dear Friend

You may be surprised to receive this letter from me since you do not know me
personally. I am the first Son of the most popular black farmer in Zimbabwe
who was murdered in the land dispute in my country. I got your contact
through network online hence decided to write you. Before the death of my
father, he took me to Johannesburg to deposit the sum of US$30 Million
(thirty million United States dollars), in one of the security company, as
he foresaw the looming danger in Zimbabwe. This money was deposited in a box
as gem stones to avoid much demurrage from the Security Company.

This amount was meant for the purchase of new machines and chemicals for the
Farms and establishment of new farms in Swaziland. This land problem came
when Zimbabwean President Mr. Robert Mugabe, introduced a new Land Act
Reform wholly affecting the rich white farmers and some few black farmers,
and this resulted to the killing and mob action by Zimbabwean war veterans
and some lunatics in the society. In fact a lot of people were killed
because of this Land reform Act for which my father was one of the victims.
it is against this background that I and my family fled Zimbabwe to South
Africa for fear of our lives.

After which, I traveled to the Netherlands and I am currently staying in the
Netherlands where i am seeking political asylum and more so have decided to
transfer my father's money to a more reliable foreign account. Since the law
of Europe prohibits a refugee (asylum seeker) to open any bank account or to
be involved in any financial transaction throughout the territorial zone of
European Union. As the eldest child of my father, I am saddled with the
responsibility of seeking a genuine foreign account where this money could
be transferred without the knowledge of my government who are bent on taking
everything we have got.

The South African government seems to be playing along with them. I am faced
with the dilemma of moving this amount of money out of my family name for
fear of going through difficulty in future. Both countries have similar
political history. I am seeking for a partner who I have to entrust my
future and that of my family in his hands, I must let you know that this
transaction is risk free. If you accept to assist me and my family, all I
want you to do for me, is to make arrangements with the security company to
clear the Consignment (funds) from their affiliate office here in the
Netherlands as i have already given directives for the consignment to be
brought to the Netherlands from South Africa.

But before then all modalities will have to be put in place like change of
ownership to the consignment. I have two options for you. Firstly you can
choose to have certain percentage of the money for nominating your account
for this transaction. Or you can go into partnership with me for the proper
profitable investment of the money in your country. Whichever the option you
want, feel free to notify me.

If you do not prefer a partnership I am willing to give you 20% of the money
while the remaining 80% will be for my investment in any of the country of
your choice. Contact with my email- ( davo markoko@netscape.net ) while I
implore you to maintain the absolute secrecy required in this transaction.
I await your immediate reply and God bless.

Best regards,
David Zuma.
