URGENT RESPONSE REQUIRED

["SHAND COLIN" <shandcolin@masrawy.com>]

Dear Sir,

Compliment of the season.

Naturally, this letter will come to you as a surprise
since we have not met, permit me however, I am
MR.COLIN SHAND, a white Zimbabwean Farmer, the owner
of Diary farms limited in Zimbabwe. I own three
tobacco farms in Chipinge, and I am also majority
owner of Glendevon Farm also situated in Chipinge, in
Zimbabwe.

You can see more details about my situation and BBC
interviews on the website below:

. I am contacting you as the need to for me to have a foreign partner in your
country has become necessary due to my plans to relocate and
establish a private company in that region, as the present political
instabilityin my country Zimbabwe, does not encourage financial investment
as the environment is not conducive for investment and most of all security
is not insured,just as reported by international media. This problem started
when the Zimbabwean government under the leadership of President Robert
Mugabe announced a degree on May 31st 2000 to seize more than 849 white-owned
farms. So far, more than 1,400 white owned farms have been invaded and
confiscated, as well as claiming the properties of the farmers.

During these periods, as reported by international media and the CNN, more
than 6 white farmers were killed, the government is not stopping at this,
as just recently the government have asked all white-farmers to give up their
farms to black farmers or risk going to prison.

Having lived in this country Zimbabwe for more than 38 years, I have
no other country to go to, nor can I trace any of my distant relatives.
Therefore, I decided to contact you, for your assistance, so that I
can establish a company in your country and relocate there. Also, I must
re-iterate the importance of having a citizen of your country to
front as the owner of the enterprise, due to the fact that I am a foreigner.
For this purpose, I have put in a security deposit all monies from the sale
of my farm and farming equipments (including tractors etc) which amounted to
US$10.5Million, I will upon receiving your consent prepare every document to
enable you receive this money on my behalf, pending my arrival to meet with
you in your country so that we can both make further arrangements with
regards to establishing the company. As a partner you will be entitled to
20% stake in whichever company that you both decide to establish when I
arrive your country.

I am waiting urgently for your response.

Cheers and God bless.

Best Regards

COLIN SHAND{MR}. GLENDOVEN FARMS, CHIPINGE, ZIMBABWE
