Some of you may have gotten this and some of you may not know anything about it. These people want you to respond to their email and then they con you out of your bank account number saying that they will pay you lots of money in return for doing practically nothing. IT IS A BIG SCAM!

This is just a reminder that if you get something like this dont respond to it.

Here is the email I got


Dear Sir,

I am Mr dudley rogers, the secretary of Commercial Farmers union branch in the
region of matabeleland,Zimbabwe. After the last general
elections in my country where the incumbent president MR. Robert Mugabe won
the presidential election, the government has adopted a very aggressive land
reforms programme. This programme is solely aimed at taking the land owned by
white African farmers for redistribution to black Africans. This programme has
attracted worldwide condemnation from world leaders including British prime
minister,MR Tony Blair and also forced several white farmers to flee the
country for
fear of victimization and physical abuse.
Two weeks ago, our headquartes in Harare was attacked and looted by black
protesters and in the process burnt down the whole building.
Fortunately,they did not get access to the huge funds kept in the strong room
which belong to the co-operation. This cash was kept at the
secretariat rather than in the Bank for fear of seizure by the government.
Now I have the funds in my possession and would need to get it invested in
a viable business venture in Europe or Asia.
Once I can get your commitment and sincerity of investing this funds on our
behalf then I would proceed to get the funds freighted to
Europe, where you would be required to pick it up for investment for us.
You do not have anything to worry about as I would undertake all charges
involved in freighting the funds to Europe, please note that this is legal as
i have the mandate form Mr Max Crawford,the president of the union to
get the funds out as fast as possible.
You would be compensated for all your effort once we have gotten the funds
to Europe.
Please get back to me if you can be of assistance and I would want our
correspondence to be via email as most phone lines of white farmers are
bugged by the government.
I expect your confidentiality and your prompt response to this mail so as
to proceed.you should only reach me on


I deleted his email because he/they don't need any more publicity other than bad publicity.

This guy may be offering a scam, but his information is quite correct. Zimbabwe, formely Rodesia, is in fact going through a redistribution of land orchestrated by the in-power government. As a matter of fact, the redistribution of land is causing a major meltdown of Zimbabwe...as if it weren't aready in the hopper. It is against the law now for any farmer to grow crops, due to the reorg. This means that the starving folks in Zimbabwe may have to go on a diet.
We claim to be on a war against terror....personnaly I'd like ALL terror against mankind to be looked into. and YES, I do feel the US should stick it's nose in. Stick it in deep.

I've been around so long, I've gotten those in the actual mail. Hand written. We advertise in magazines that end up overseas... so I can see how it happens. I took the first on to the authorities... the rest hit the round file.

stormer:....to which authorities?
I used to forward them to the respective embassies..... the problem is, some are part of the problem. I understand Justice has caught some of these actually operating out of the US..... but a mere trickle.
I have 153 such offers/requests ytd!... they must think I actually have amounts worth stealing?
