Dearest one,
I know this let
ter may
come to you as a surprise considering the fact that we have not had any
formal
acquaintance before. We would want you for the sake of God to give this an
immediate attention in view of the fact that the security of our lives and
future are at stake.
I am Felix Basil 23 years old from ZIMBA
BWE
but presently domiciled in Red
Cross VALENCIA- SPAIN with my younger
sister Rita Basil who is 20 years old. My father Mr Mulage Michael Basil
who
before his untimely assassination by the ruthless government forces of Robe
rt
Mugabe was a renowned Farmer in Bulawayo Town in Zimbabwe. He was killed in
our
home town residential house at Bulawayo along side two of my other brothers
, two
house maids, because my father joined the international community in condem
ning
and speaking out against this uncivilized and bizarre policy of Robert
Mugabe's government. As a result of my father firm and upright position on
this
matter, a group of assailants suspected to be government sympathizers at
tached
and killed my father in cold blood in February last year. Fortunately for M
e,
my younger sister and mother, we were at our house in Harare the capital ci
ty
were we reside as our mother decided that we stay with her while others go
the
weekend with my father. As we got the news of the tragedy. We immediately
managed to ran into neighbouring country (Johannesburg) in South Africa for
refugee. Unfortunately, As fate would have it, we lost our dear mother (may
her
soul rest in peace) as a result of what the Doctor called cardiac arrest. <
br
/>
As we were coming into Johannesburg, we had some docume
nts of a
deposit of $ 20.7m (Twenty Million seven hundred thousand USD) deposited by
my
late father in a security and trust company here in Spain . According to my
late mother our father had, sensing the rising hostilities, sold some of hi
s
farm lands including those of some of his white farmer associates who had
transferred ownership of their farm lands to my father to forestall the
government acquiring them he intends to use this fund for his international
business. Right now we are in Spain through the help of the Red Cross socie
ty
and the catholic church in Johannesburg.
We had located the
security company where the money is deposited with the help of an attorney
we
were able to establish ownership in my name as the next of KIN. Please righ
t
now, with the bitter experiences we had in our country we can not go back
because we don't have any body to stay with, Coupled with the incessant
political upheavals and hostilities in our country today and African sub
regions, we desire seriously to leave here and live the rest of our life in
to a
more peaceful and politically stable country like yours. Following the
misfortune that has befallen our future. We therefore wish that you can hel

5) To assist us in getting
residential permits for formal and comfortable stay in your country after t
he
