PRIVATE.

[JOE ASEKE <fondapeace@netscape.net>]

Good day,

with warm hearts I offer my friendship, and my greetings, and I hope this
letter meets you in good time. It will be surprising to you to receive this
proposal from me since you do not know me personally. However, I am
sincerely seeking your confidence in this transaction, which I propose with
my free mind and as a person of integrity.

My name is Joe  Aseke, the son of Zuma Aseke, a farmer from Zimbabwe, Who
was murdered in the land dispute in my country during the conflite between
President Mugabe and the prominent white and farmers. As led by my
instinct,I decided to contact you through email, after searching for
contacts via online network from the internet, as it is the only means I can
contact anybody since I am cutting off ties with Zimbabwe for now. I
apologize if this is not acceptable to you.
The purpose of this letter is to seek your most needed assistance in a
project venture. Due to the land and political problems in Zimbabwe, as a
result of President Robert Mugabe's introduction of new Land Act Reform
wholly affecting the rich white farmers and the few rich black farmers, all
white farmers were asked to surrender their farms to the government for
re-distribution and infact to his political party members and my father
though black was the treasury of the farmers association and a strong
member of an opposition party that did not support the president's idea.
He then ordered his party members and the police under his pay row to invade
my father's farm and burn down everything in the farm. They killed my father
and took away a lot of items from his farm.
After the death of my father, our local pastor and a close friend of my
father handed us his will documents with instructions from my father that we
should leave Zimbabwe incase anything happens to him. The will documents has
a certificate of deposit, confirming a cash deposit totaling Nine million
five hundred thousand united state dollars. [9.5m] Kept in custody
for us in a security and finance company unknown to the company that the
content is money hence it was deposited as valuable antiques. This money was deposited
with this Private Security Company for safety and security reasons, and was
to be used for the purchase of land, new machines and chemicals
establishment of new farms in Botswana.
This violent and barbaric act by Mugabe has since led to the death of my
beloved mother and kid sister and other innocent lives.
I was continually threatened to abandon my inheritance from my father after
he was murdered. I resisted for a while, but when the danger became
unbearable,and I survived two murder attempts, I fled Zimbabwe with the help
of my father's close friend Mr. John Casahans from Australia also a farmer
who was leaving in Zimbabwe with us but leftwith his family following this
ugly development I have tried to reach him but all to no avail.
I am currently staying in the Netherlands where I am seeking political
asylum.In fact my decision to come here to seek asylum, is because the
security and finance company from South Africa, has a branch here, I have
instructed the company to transfer the safe deposit from their office in
Johannesburg here, which they have since done.
I need to transfer this money to an account and invest part of the money.
Since the law of the Netherlands prohibits a refugee (asylum seeker) to open
any bank account or to be involved in any financial transaction, this is why
I am seeking a genuine and reliable partner, whose account this money can be
transferred, hence this proposal to you.
You have to understand that this decision taken by me is a very big and
brave one, and it entrusts my future in your hands, as a result of the safe
keeping of these funds.
If you accept to assist me, all I want you to do for me, is to assist with
arrangements to claim the deposit from the security company from their
office here in The Netherlands, as it has now been transferred from
Johannesburg,South Africa to their branch here. The company will be legally
informed of your representation to my family.
For your assistance, I have two options for you. Firstly you can choose to
have 20% of the money for your assistance, and helping me open an account
for the money to be deposited here, or you can go into partnership with me
for the proper profitable investment of the money in your country. Whichever
the option you want, please notify me in your reply.
I have also set aside 1 % of this money for all kinds of expenses that come
our way in the process of this transaction, and 4% for Charity donations.If
you prefer to accept the 20% for your moral and financial assistance then
the balance will be left in the account here for me.
Please, I want you to adhere to the confidentiality of this project.
