MR JERRY MARTINS JNR PHONE; 27 73 632 3459
DEAR SIR,
REQUEST FOR BUSINESS ASSISTANCE
I perfectly understand your surprise on receiving this mail but somebody reccommended you to me as the best possible person to assist me through this my very difficult situation based on your credentials as a responsible man as well as a very successfull businessman . first of all let me introduce myself to you.my name is jerry martin jnr.i am a 36 yr old zimbabwean agricultural engineer and a commercial farmer.i am a married man with three children.i was a very successfull businessman until the present government of zimbabwe started its present campaign of intimidation of commercial farmers based on there support for the opposition party of zimbabwe. i am a member of the opposition movement for democratic change[m.d.c.]and as a result of this my farms as well as my properties including my bank accounts have been confiscated by the government of zimbabwe using one pretext or the other in order to prevent me from financially contributing to the opposition party of which i am one of the major financiers. my family was consistently being harrassed by the ruling party militants and i was forced to flee the country in order to safeguard our lives. we managed to flee into south africa hidden in a gabbage disposal truck with very few of my belongings. i also hid my last money which i could lay my hands on which amounted to the sum of four million eight hundred thousand dollars[$4.8m]with a few of my belongings as we were entering into south africa. immediately we arrived in south africa, we changed our identities and i immediately deposited the money in a private security facility diguised with some private valuables for safekeeping. the main problem i have is that due to the fact that we were rigged out in the last elections in zimbabwe i have no desire to stay on in this continent and i will like to relocate abroad and start a new life with my family. i will like to request to use your account to transfer the money overseas since using any other means will mean disclosing my identity and put my life and that of my family in jeopardy.this is because there are many assassins in south africa looking for opposition members to eliminate who are in the ruling governments payroll. i am willing to offer you twenty five percent of the money as your commission as long as you help me and my family. if you are willing to help me contact me through the above mentioned numbers so that i will inform you when and how the money will be deposited into your account. i hope to hear from you as soon as possible.good bye and GOD BLESS YOU.
