Dear Sir,

RE: PLEA FOR ASSISTANCE.
My name is NELSON ZULU, Son of DR.LAWSON ZULU, who was recently murdered in the land dispute crises in Zimbabwe.

My father and I used to live in a town called Chinhoyi located in the heart of Murambinda, about 120km from Harare, the capital city of Zimbabwe. Chinhoyi was largely a peaceful farming area where one can own land and cultivate it if one worked hard enough. The relative peace existing in Chinhoyi and their lives were shattered with the beginning of the “Ruling Party sponsored Land Invasion” by war veterans who were working with the backing of Mugabe’s government. My late father was among the few black Zimbabwean rich farmers murdered in cold blood by the agents of the ruling government of President Robert Mugabe, for his alleged support and sympathy for the Zimbabwean opposition Party, ”Movement For Democratic Change” (MDC), controlled by the white before his death, my father on one of his many trips abroad took me to Johannesburg with the sum of USD50.5million(Fifty Million, Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars), as if he foresaw the looming danger.

On arrival in South Africa, as we had originally intended using the money for purpose of investment, he bought a very vast piece of land, for a very cheap rate within the countryside. not long after he bought the land, the South African Mining Corporation, based on professional advice by their Geologists, offered a whooping amount of money for outright purchase of the land from us, But base on an inside information, they settled for a Lease Agreement with the South African Mining Corporation. The Lease Agreement has come into Maturity, where in it was indicated that my father was acting on behalf of a foreign investment group. This area of the arrangement was left blank, as it was only to be needed at time of maturity of this investment (now). For now however, the total amount redeemable is USD19.5million (Nineteen Million, Five Hundred Thousand Dollars). Though, prior to the death of my father, no foreign investment group had gone into arrangement with them to be presented as the real owners of the investment. Death as you know was quite sudden.

I am currently residing in South Africa as an asylum seeker, hence my desire to transfer my inheritance through the help of a reliable foreigner, to a foreign bank account. I am actually saddled with the responsibility of seeking an honest individual with vast experience in business to help me safeguard and invest this money. Moreover the financial laws of the Republic of South Africa do not allow asylum seekers certain financial rights. In view of the above, coupled with the way the money has been acquired it is most prudent to receive the funds anywhere else but South Africa. You will thus understand that my entire life and that of our family depends on the investment, and as such for appreciation for the help which anyone may render me. I am willing to pay something as remuneration, which is subject to further discussion.

send me a mail via e-mail nelson_zulu@findology.com

As I wait to hear from you, my warm regards go to you and your family.

Best Regards,

Mr.NELSON ZULU
