Subject: Greetings,
Hello Dear,
My name is Laura Wilfred the only daughter of Mr. Martin Wilfred of Zimbabwe, I am 25 years old and I am currently in Benin Republic as refugee since I lost My parents because of the recent war that occurred in our country.
I got your esteem contact and particulars out of desperate search for a business minded personality in your country, who will honestly assist me to retrieve my inherited funds into your account and as well as invest it into a lucrative business.
During the recent war against the farmers in Zimbabwe from the supporters of our President, Robert Mugabe to claim all the white -owned farm to his party members and his followers, he ordered all the white farmers to surrender all their farms to his party members and his followers.
My father being one of the few rich and successful black farmers in our country was also victimized because of his opposition to Mugabe's policies. And because he did not support Mugabe's ideas, Mugabe's supporters invaded my father's farm and burnt everything in the farm, killed my father and made away with a lot of items in my father's farm. This action was taken because my late father felt the growing tension on the farm issue, but I guess he never anticipated the tragedy that brought to the brutal and sudden death.
However with the benefit of hindsight, owing to the looming but deteriorating crisis in my country, Zimbabwe, my father, before his unfortunate death deposited with a security vault IN SPAIN the sum of $350M Usd (Three hundred and Fifty Million United States Dollars), and 250kg of alluvial gold with the sole aim of acquiring and buying some dredging equipment in setting up of a dredging firm. I am now in a very difficult situation.
After the death of my father, I escaped and ran to the Republic of Benin where I was permitted to reside as Political Refugees.
So Because of my present and unpleasant status here I decided to contact an overseas firm / individual that can assist Me to move this money out of SPAIN because, as asylum seeker, I cannot be able to handle this transaction of such amount Hence I seek your consent to stand as my Father's next of Kin to retrieve those properties and as well to assist in providing me a permanent residential permit in your country after the money must have been transferred to your account.
I will willingly offer you 30% of the total sum for your assistance in securing the fund. All I want you to do is to furnish me with your entire details including your readiness to assist me achieve this transaction for investment purposes in your country under your supervision.
I have to re-assure you that this transaction is 100% risk free and should be treated with absolute confidentiality. All the vital documentation/certification that has to do with the origin of the fund are with me for the security reasons. And I will send them to you when we progress.
