URGENT ASSISTANCE

YOU MAY BE SURPRISE TO RECIEVE THIS LETTER FROM ME SINCE YOU DO NOT KNOW ME PERSONALLY. THE PURPOSE OF INTRODUCTION IS THAT I AM BARRY THOMAS. THE FIRST SON OF DR. IMADE THOMAS WHO WAS RECENTLY MURDERED IN THE LAND DISPUTE IN ZIMBABWE. I WAS FURNISHED WTH VIABLE INFORMATION FROM THE WORLD TRADE CENTRE HERE IN AMSTERDAM-HOLLAND AND DECIDED TO WRITE YOU.

BEFORE THE DEATH OF MY FATHER, HE HAD TAKEN ME TO AMSTERDAM TO DEPOSIT THE SUM OF SIXTEEN MILLION DOLLARS(16.000,000.00) IN A SECURITY COMPANY, AS IF HE FORSAW THE LOOMING DANGER IN ZIMBABWE. THIS MONEY WAS DEPOSITED IN A BOX AS GEMSTONES TO AVOID MUCH DEMURRAGE FROM THE SECURITY COMPANY.
THIS AMOUT WAS MENT FOR PURCHASE OF NEW MACHINES AND CHEMICALS FOR THE FARMS AND ESTABLISHMENT OF A NEW SWAZILAND.

THE LAND PROBLEM CAME WHEN ZIMBABWE PRESIDENT MR. ROBERT MUGABE, INTRODUCED A NEW LAND ACT THAT WHOLLY AFFECTED WHITE RICH FARMERS AND SOME FEW BLACK FARMERS. THIS RESULTED TO THE KILLING AND MOB ACTION BY ZIMBABWE WAR VETERANS AND SOME LUNATICTS IN THE SOCIETY. INFACT, A LOT OF PEOPLE WERE KILLED BECAUSE OF THIS LAND REFORM ACT OF WHICH MY FATHER WAS ONE OF VICTIMS.

IT IS AGAINST THIS BACKGROUND THAT MY FAMILY AND I WHO ARE CURRENTLY STAYING IN AMSTERDAM HAVE DECIDED TO TRANSFER MY FATHER’S MONEY TO A FOREIGN ACCOUNT SINCE THE NETHERLANDS PROHIBIT A REFUGEE (ASYLUM SEEKER) TO OPEN ANY ACCOUNT OR TO BE INVOLVED IN ANY FINANCIAL TRANSACTION AS THE ELDEST SON 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 NETHERLANDS GOVERNMENT SEEMS TO BE PLAYING ABOUT WITH THEM. I AM FACED WITH THE DILEMMA OF INVESTING THIS AMOUNT OF MONEY IN THE NETHERLANDS FOR THE FEAR OF GOING THROUGH THE SAME EXPERIENCE IN FUTURE SINCE BOTH COUNTRIES HAVE SIMILAR HISTORY. MORE OVER, THE NETHERLANDS FOREIGN EXCHANGE POLICY DOES NOT ALLOW SUCH INVESTMENT FROM ASSYLUM SEEKERS.

AS A BUSINESS MAN, WHOM I HAVE INTRUSTED MY FUTURE AN MY FAMILY IN HIS HANDS, I MUST LET YOU KNOW THAT THE TRANSACTION IS RIKS FREE. IF YOU ACCEPT TO ASSIST ME AND MY FAMILY, ALL I NEED YOU TO DO FOR ME IS TO MAKE ARRANGEMENT AND COME TO AMSTERDAM-HOLLAND, SO THAT YOU CAN OPEN THE NON-RESIDENT ACCOUNT WHICH WILL AID US IN TRANSFERING THE MONEY INTO ANY ACCONT YOU WILL NOMINATE OVERSEAS. THIS MONEY I INTEND TO USE FOR INVESTMENT.

I HAVE OPTIONS TO OFFER YOU, FIRST YOU CAN CHOOSE TO HAVE CERTAIN PERCENTAGE OF THE MONEY FOR NOMINATING YOUR ACCOUNT FOR THE TRANSACTION, OR YOU CAN GO INTO PARTNERSHIP WITH ME FOR A PROPER PROFITABLE INVESTMENT OF THE MONEY IN YOUR COUNTRY WHICH OPTION YOU CHOOSE, FEEL FREE TO NOTIFY ME. I HAVE MAPPED OUT 5% OF THIS MONEY FOR ALL EXPENSES INCURRED IN PROCESSING THIS TRANSACTION. IF YOU DO NOT PREFER A PARTNERSHIP, I AM WILLING TO GIVE YOU 25% OF THIS MONEY WHILE THE REMAINING 70% WILL BE FOR IN VESTMENT IN YOUR COUNTRY.

PLEASE CONTACT ME IMMIADIATELY ON THE ABOVE TELEPHONE OR  EMAIL. IN OTHER FOR US TO DISCUSS FURTHER ON THIS TRANSACTION.

MAY THE ALMIGHTY LORD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY

SINCERELY,

MR. BARRY THOMAS
