FROM: AMSTERDAM-NETHERLANDS

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 had taken me to
Johannesburg to deposit the sum of USD5.Million (Five
million United States dollars), in one of the private
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 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 when he
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 South Africa for fear of going
through the same experience 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. I have also mapped out 2% 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 88%
will be for my investment in your country. Contact with
me immediately while I implore you to maintain the
absolute secrecy required in this transaction.

Thanks, GOD BLESS YOU

Best regards,


NOTE:
ON YOUR INABILITY TO HANDLE THIS
TRANSACTION RESPOND TO ME AND INFORM
ME SO I CAN LOOK FOR SOMEONE ELSE.

Dear friend,


I am soliciting your confidence in this business; this is because of its
nature as being utterly confidential and top secret. Though, I know that a
business of this sort will make any one apprehensive and worried, but I am
assuring you that this transaction is safe.


I am Mr. Vincent Kawa, a Credit Officer with Oceanic Bank of Nigeria. For
the cause of this transaction, I am working in collaboration with
Barrister, Ikimi Williams an attorney to a national of your country, Mr.
Ailing Lazarus who was a ship Merchant and maintained a bogus account with
my bank here. My cordial relationship with him afforded me to be the
account supervisor.

I came to know you in my private search for a reliable and reputable person
to handle this confidential transaction, which involves the transfer of his
abandoned huge sum of money to a foreign account requiring maximum
confidence. I have decided to contact you due to the urgency of this
transaction.

Ever since Mr. Ailing Lazarus traveled, he has not made any contact with
me, the attorney or any body that we know since April 2001. Valuable
efforts have been made by the attorney to get in touch with him or
relatives but to no success. The assumption that Mr. Ailing must have been
dead is confirmed by the attorney on his inability to follow up all
pressing transactions then, which all of them have been terminated. I have
contacted you or any person you know that is capable to work with me as a
next of kin irrespective of same surname or not.


This is in the light of a government financial regulation order, to freeze
any account containing huge sums of money that has been dormant for a less
than the period of time we are talking about. The bank has made arrangement
for the fund to be declared unclaimed and subsequently be donated to the
government trust fund. To forestall a total loss, the attorney has agreed
with me to put the modalities I am proposing to you now in place, to manage
the fund and bring it to safe point until we are able to trace or decide
further what to do. I now seek your permission to have you stand as the
next of kin so that the fund $8.2M (Eight Million point two US Dollars)
will be released and paid into your account as the beneficiary's next of
kin.

All documents and proves to enable get this fund will be carefully worked
out. I found it more convenient to commence on the transaction since I have
all information to influence all procedures to this effect both from the
bank and from the attorney's assistance.


We are assuring you that your Involvement in this business is 100% risk
free. Moreover this arrangement will be possible under the mandatory power
of probate claims to be issued by the attorney, who is standing by us in
this transaction to see what we can keep out of the lot that would have
been confiscated and wasted by the government . You shall retain a
percentage that would be agreed between us while the rest will be in our
care for investment purposes.


As soon as I receive an acknowledgement of receipt of this message in
acceptance of our mutual business proposal, I would furnish you with the
necessary modalities and disbursement ratio to suit both parties without
any conflict including every other detail you may wish to know. If this
proposal is acceptable by you, do not take undue advantage of the trust we
have bestowed in you. On receiving your reply, I shall give you a call to
finalize all arrangements for a hitch free transaction.


Regards,

Mr Vincent Kawa
