Actually its $7,042,800, bless their hearts! As you can see below I got another email from a kind Zimbabwean soul living in South Africa this time. Sure, the sweet man wants to give me 20% of over $35 million, how could I not write to him! I will let you know as soon as I get a reply to either the email below or the one sent on Tuesday.
Dear Kuta,
Many thanks for your email. I was indeed surprised to hear that someone in Zimbabwe had managed to get my address from the South African Chamber of Commerce in Johannesburg as I don’t understand how important people in such a faraway place came to hear about me, here in Ballygobackwards. Also, Kuto, it seems amazing that such important people even knew my nickname Curly K. Sure I thought only my good business associates knew that, nevertheless, as you know the Lord works in mysterious ways. I just wanted to let you know that my real name is Concepta Knots in case you need it for any paperwork.
Kuto, I am so sorry to hear about your troubles, it must be especially hard for you coming from a good God fearing background. Also it must be hard to know that there is US$35.214.000.00 in a bank that you cannot touch whilst you are forced to be a refugee. It’s a sin. Kuto, I cannot believe would be so generous to give away 20% of this amount, it’s a lot of money but you are obviously a very kind man.
Kuto, I would love to help you and look forward to hearing from you soon.
Best wishes from Ireland
Concepta Knots (Curly K)

Dear Curly K,
CONFIDENTIAL.
My name is Kuta Khumalo the eldeset son of Mr.Joseph Khumalo of Zimbabwe. This might come to you as a surprise about where I got your contact address. I got your address from the South African Chamber of Commerce in Johannesburg, South Africa.
During the current war against the farmers in Zimbabwe from the supporters of our President Robert Mugabe to claim all the white-owned farms to his party members and his followers, he ordered all white farmers to surrender all their farms to his party members and his followers.
My father was one of the best farmers in our country and because he did not support Mugabe's ideas, Mugabe's supporters invaded my father's farm and burnt everything in the farm, killing my father and made away with a lot of items in my father's farm. Before his death, my father had deposited with one of the Security Company in Johannesburg, South Africa the sum of (US$35.214.000.00) (Thirty Five Million, Two hundred and Fourteen Thousand.United States Dollars).with my name and made every documents with my name both the certificate of depository. Then after the death of my father, we decided to move to the Republic of South Africa where he had deposited the money in the Security Company as family valuables.
So, I decided to contact you to assist me to transfer this money out of South Africa because as asylum seekers we are not allowed to operate any bank account within South Africa. We have agreed to offer you 20% of the total sum for your assistance, 5% will be mapped out for any expenses that may be incurred in the course of this transaction and 75% will be for me and my family to invest in your country. All I want you to do is to furnish me with your full personal phone and fax numbers for easy communication.
You can contact me on the above Telephone number. Note that this transaction is 100% risk free and absolutely confidential.
Thanks and God bless as I await your reply.
Best Regards,
MR KUTA KHUMALO
(For the Family)

The poor dote. I hope Concepta can do something for him, and fast.
I always sign my starving-African-millionaire-correspondence as Annette Curtin.
Steer clear of this one. It has SCAM written all over it.
SWEARING LADY; Please God Concepta will be able to help him out!
CHITTY; Good to know you're looking out for me but I kinda guessed they were scams, just trying to waste their time a little - it leaves them less to prey on vunerable people.
Got a mail similar to yours Curly, only the mail has been sent by MR. JOSEPH KHUMALO, the father himself who claims to be working with ABSA Bank and this time it's an abandoned sum of US$14,700,000.00 which belonged to a customer who died with his entire family. Sheesh! I was just googling the name for fun and came across your blog. So thought would leave a comment here for anyone who comes across this name. Do you think anyone has been taken in by this scam.
