Heheh, I just received this today... I didn't know that they still sent them out. I thought everyone would have known that it's a hoax by now...

Still an interesting read though... almost like a novel!

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 John Seko, the first son
of David Seko one of the most popular black farmers 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 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 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
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 more so 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
couldbe 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 Ihave 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 this email: ( johnseko35@albawaba.com) or
( johnase67@netscape.net) while I implore you to maintain the absolute
secrecy required in this transaction.

Note:your prompt response will be appreciated.

Thanks, GOD BLESS

Yours Faithfully,
Mr. John Seko.
