| Greetings! I am requesting your hand of partnership into investment . This investment proposal I wish to intimate you with is of mutual benefit and its success is entirely based on mutual trust, cooperation and a high level of confidentiality as regard this transaction. I am Mrs.Mariam Bawa the wife of Late Mr. Benson Bawa the former general manager Zambia Consolidated Copper Mines (ZCCM). I got your contact from a business directory and advertising in the office of the Uk/Asia chamber of commerce here in London. I am seeking your assistance to enable me invest the sum of US$15,500,000.00 (Fifteen Million, Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars) into your country. So l contacted you, because l cannot invest in your country without an assistant from someone from your country, l will like you to advice me on a very lucrative business like real estate and housing there that l can invest and the procedure before the investment. As a widow and civil servant still in active government service, I am forbidden by law of my country to operate an account or invest outside the shores of Zambia. Hence I write this message to you, seeking your assistance , confidentiality and cooperation so as to enable me invest the above said amount which my husband kept in London security Volt, with out the knowledge of my country government. For further details as to the workability of this investment proposal please reach me as soon as possible with all your personal contact , name , address, phone and fax numbers and information for further clarification with your contacts, if your really interested in doing this business with me as my partner . Please, email me on receipt of this mail .Thank you and God bless as I await your urgent response. Yours Sincerely, Mrs. Mariam Bawa |
