Good day,

You may be surprised to receive this letter from me since you do not know me 
personally. The purpose of my introduction is that I am James Macheke, the 
first son of Zuma Macheke one of the most popular black farmers in Zimbabwe 
who was recently 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 had taken me to Johannesburg to deposit the 
sum of USD$9.5 million (Nine million, Five Hundred thousand United States 
dollars), in one of the private security and finance company, as he foresaw 
the looming danger in Zimbabwe this funds was deposited in a box as gem 
stones to avoid much demurrage from the security and finance company. This 
funds was meant for the purchase of new machineries 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 for fear of 
our lives and are currently staying in the Netherlands where we are seeking 
political asylum and moreso have decided to transfer my fathers money to a 
more reliable foreign account. since the law of Netherlands prohibits a 
refugee (asylum seeker) to open any bank account or to be involved in any 
financial transaction throughout the territorial zone of Netherlands, As the 
eldest son of my father, I am saddled with the responsibility of seeking a 
genuine foreign account where these funds
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 these funds out of South Africa for 
fear of going through the same experience in future, both countries have 
similar political history. As a businessman,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 an arrangements 
with the security and finance 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 and more importantly 
this money I intend to use for investment.

I have two options for you. Firstly you can choose to have certain percentage 
of the funds for nominating your account for this transaction. Or you can go 
into partnership with me for the proper profitable investment of the funds in 
your country. Whichever the option you want, feel free to notify me. I have 
also mapped out 5% of this money for all kinds of expenses incurred in the 
process of this transaction.If you do not prefer a partnership I am willing 
to give you 10% of the money while the remaining 85% will be for my 
investment in your country. Contact me with the above E-mail address,while I 
implore you to maintain the absolute secrecy required in this transaction.
