Good day

You may be surprised to receive this letter from me since you don't know me personally. I am Mrs. Caroline Moyo the wife of Mr Moyo KUMALI who was recently murdered in the land dispute in Zimbabwe. I got your contact through South African Information Exchange (S.A.I.E) in Johannesburg, and I decided to solicit for your assistance. My late husband 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 Zim babwean opposition party controlled by the white minority.

Before his death he had taken me to Johannesburg South Africa to deposit the sum of US$22 (Twenty Two Million United States Dollars) with a Security and Finance Company as if he Foresaw the looming danger in Zimbabwe. The money was deposited in a metal box and declare as a personal effects for the use of some of his friends who were to arrive for the world summit on sustainable development scheduled to hold in South Africa from 26th of August,2002.This money was given to my husband by President Robert Mugabe himself, for investment in South Africa when they were in good terms.

The dispute between my husband and the President arose when the President introduced a new land reform-act,which adversely affected the rich white farmers and some black f armers as well. My husband was vehemently opposed to the "modus operandis"adopted by the government and publicly opposed it. This brought him in direct conflict with the president. To achieve his purpose, the president used war veterans to plunder, loot and occupy all farms belonging to the white farmers and their black sympathizers. More than Fifty Farmers has lost their lives so far.

Heads of governments from the west,especially Britain and United States of America have voiced there condemnation of Mugabe's plan. Subsequently, South African Development Community (S.A.D.C) has continuously Supported Mugabe's new land act, it is against this background that I and my two children who are currently Residing in South Africa have decided to transfer my husband's money into a foreign account.

As a mother of two children, I am saddled with the responsibility of seeking a genuine foreign account where this money Could be transferred without the knowledge of my Governm ent who are tactically freezing our family Wealth and South Africa's government seems to be Playing along with them. I am faced with the dilemma of investing this money in South Africa for fear of encountering the same experience in future since both Countries have almost the same political history.

More so, the South African Foreign Exchange policy does not allow such investment hence I am seeking for an "asylum". As a business person that I entrusted my Future and that of my children into his hands, I must let you know that this transaction is 100% risk free and the nature of your business does not necessarily matter. For your assistance, we are offering You 15% of the total sum, 80% for me and my children While 5% will be mapped out for any expenses we may incurs during this transaction. We wish to invest our Money on com mercial property based on your advice .

Finally,i will demand for assurance that you will not sit on this money when it finally gets to your personal or company's account in your country. If this proposal is acceptable with you, please confirm your interest by immidiate reply.

Best Regards.

Mrs . Caroline Moyo

This is just a small sampling of the many hundreds of scam e-mails received each day here at 419baiter.com headquarters.

There are many different types of 419 scam (examples) but they all promise you something (fortune, job with salary/commision, low-interest loan, lottery prize, cheap gold dust/diamonds, work visa, etc.) in return for a small 'fee' or some kind of remittance. Of course, there is no fortune, no job, no loan, no prize to be had. It's just a ploy to get you to willingly send them money.
