Dear friend,
WE ARE REQUESTING FOR YOUR URGENT ASSISTANCE
Please do not be embarrassed to receive this mail especially since we
dont know each other or meet in person before. I was opportune to have your esteemed particulars from South Africa Information Exchange(S.A.I..E.), in mysearch for a reliable person to handle a very confidential transaction, which involve a transfer of fund to a foreign account.

My concern has centered on how I could transfer my late husbandsmoney
amounting to US$25.5 Million (Twenty-Five Million Five Hundred Thousand
United States Dollars) out of South Africa for a better investment abroad.
I am Mrs. susan shabangu Gezi, the wife of late Mr. shabangu Gezi,My husband was the former Zimbabwean Minister for youth,gender and Employment creation. While alive, my husband stood against seizure of white farms and the distribution of it to the blacks without compensationto the white owners.

Because of my husband's sincerity, he was killed by a planned motor
accident along Harare-Masvingo Road near Mvuma Province of Zimbabwe.
Before his untimely death, my husband told me some few weeks earlier that he kept one diplomatic box with a private finance and Security Company in
Johannesburg , South Africa which contains US$25.5 Million (Twenty-Five Million Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars). He warned that he
only declared the contents of the diplomatic box to the Security Company as a family treasure/ values, with insurance values of the said amount. He also told me that he used the name of our son Benson shabangu Gezi as the beneficiary of this money being his only child. The original document that
shows the Deed of lodge, Proof of Deposit, and Depository Agreement between my late husband and the Management of the Security Company was kept with the reputable South African Lawyer.

Because of South African Financial Law, which bared asylumseeker/ refugee like us to operate an account that exceed US$1000 and fear of the amount involved, I decided to write to you to seek your help for this money to be transferred into your companys or personal bank account for our future
investment in your country. I am presently sick with HIGH BLOOD PRESURE,
and was admitted in the hospital for treatment. So, I will please ask you
call my son as soon as you receive this letter for more details concerning
this transfer transaction.

Please give us your direct phone and fax numbers, which will allow an easy
communication before or after transferring the money into your bank
account. I want to assure you also that this transaction is 100% risk
free. As for your reward for this kind assistance, we are ready to offer
you 20% of the total sum while 10% will be set aside for expenses incurred
in the course of the transaction. Please find below how I want you to help
me and my son.

1). YOU ARE REQUIRED TO COME DOWN TO SOUTH AFRICA TO HELP US CLEAR THE OUT-STANDING DEMURRAGE FROM THE SECURITY COMPANY.
2). UPON YOUR ARRIVAL HERE IN SOUTH AFRICA , YOU WILL OPEN A NON-RESIDENT DOLLAR ACCOUNT IN YOUR NAME WHERE THE TOTAL MONEY WILL BE DEPOSITED FIRST FOR ONWARD TRANSFER TO YOUR OVERSEAS ACCOUNT.
3). WE ALSO NEED YOUR INTERNATIONAL PASSPORT COPY, THAT WILL ENABLE US MAKE THE CHANGE OF OWNERSHIP CERTIFICATE IN YOUR NAME AS THE BENEFICIARY OF THIS FUND,WHICH WILL SEND TO YOU AND TO ENABLE THE SECURITY COMPANY RELEASE THE BOX TO US AS SOON AS YOU ARE HERE FOR COMPLETION.
4). YOUR FULL NAMES AND RESIDENTIAL ADDRESS.
5). PLEASE WHAT IS YOUR AGE AND OCCUPATION? THIS IS TO KNOW IF YOU ARE CAPABLE TO HANDLE THIS TRANSACTION FOR US, AS WE CANNOT AFFORD TO LOOSE THIS MONEY.
6). ALL YOUR EXPENSES WILL BE GIVING BACK TO YOU AS SOON AS WE CLEAR THE BOX UPON YOUR ARRIVAL.

If you are willing to help me and my son, please try as soon as possible
to get back to me through the above private telephone and e-mail. Please,
I do hope that this money will be safe when finally transferred into your
bank account. I do hope of establishing a good relationship with you and your family after this transaction.

God bless you and your family while waiting to hear from you urgently.

Yours Sincerely,

Mrs. susan.shabangu Gezi & Son (prince.B.shabangu.gezi)
