From: Mrs. Lab E. Van Glendoven.
Glendoven Farms,
Chipinge, Zimbabwe.


Dear Sir,

I am Mrs. Lab E. Van Glendoven, a widow to late Donald Van Glendoven,a white 
Zimbabwean Farmer and political opposition leader, before his suden death, the 
owner of Diary farms limited in Zimbabwe. He owned three tobacco farms in 
Chipinge, also a majority owner of Glendoven. Farm also situated in Chipinge, 
in Zimbabwe. You can see  more details about my situation and BBC interviews on 
the websites below:

I am contacting you as the need to for me to have a foreign partner in
your country has become necessary due to our plans to relocate to that
country so that I can start my life all over again as the present
political instability in Zimbabwe does not encourage financial
investment as the environment is no longer conducive for me and my
three children.Because of the political instabilities and wanton 
distruction of lives and properties, I was assisted by a good samaritan to 
safety in Johannesburg,South Africa before we eventually found ourselves.This 
was reported widely by most international media.

This problem started when the Zimbabwean government under the
leadership of President Robert Mugabe announced a decree on May 31st 
2000 to seize more than 849 white and political opposition owned 
farms.During these periods, as reported by international media, BBC and the 
CNN, more than 6 white farmers were killed including my late husband.The 
government did not stop at this, as just recently the government have asked all 
white-farmers to give up their farms to black farmers and politicians who are 
in alliance with the ruling party or risk going to prison and possibly killed. 
So far, more than 1,400 white
owned farms have been invaded and confiscated, as well as claiming the
properties of the farmers.Also,about 133 white farmers were arrested for 
defying the orders to leave their farms under the controversial land reform 
programme of the government.Having married and lived with my late husband in 
this country Zimbabwe for more than 32 years, I have no other country to go to. 
Therefore, I decided to contact you, for your assistance, so that I can divert 
my interest in Zimbabwe to a more
stablecountry as yours. Before my husband suden death,he was able to planned 
well ahead of time to secure some of our properties which were meant for a new 
farm in Bostwana and made a reasonable money deposit to a finance company in 
Europe.

I will not disclose the name of the finance company and the amount that 
was deposited for security reasons. The reason of the deposit was to 
purchase new implements for our new farms. However, I will make 
everything known to you as soon as I receive a response through my lawyer who 
has been authorized to act on my behalf. The finance company is not aware of 
the actual contents of the consignment except the declared items (gemstones) as 
reflected in the deposit certificate. Also, I must re-iterate the importance of 
having a citizen of your country to front for me, since I intend to invest and 
settle in your country. I do not know much about your country‘s land ownership
laws,I thought it wise to seek the help of a citizen to act as proxy for me and 
my children as their future is right now very bleak. I will upon
receiving your consent make all arrangement to move the funds to you pending my 
arrival to meet with you in your country.Further arrangements
would be made regarding investment thereafter.Every modality will be worked out 
by my lawyer to ensure that the money is conveniently moved to your region to 
enable you receive it in person without any setbacks or inconveniencies. He 
will arrange a smooth meeting between you and the finance company for the 
delivery.

For your assistance to me, you will be entittled to a commission of 30%
ofthe total sum for this purpose. If you are interested and willing to
assist me, you should please forward to my lawyer via his private email
address as stated below:
