Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?

On the 27th of October 2014 Josiah Dimbo a Zimbabwean citizen posing as a Zimbabwe Angola Business Association coordinator fraudulently received more than USD600 from would have been delegates for an Angola-Luanda Hosted Kuando Kubango Business Forum these deligates came from Zimbabwe, USA and the United Kingdom.

Unbeknown to the delegates, Josiah Dimbo acting on his own greed disappeared with the money and stole passports and ID information from these deligates which included their parents' names in hopes of accessing their credit card information or selling it to fraudstars in future.

Josiah Dimbo presents a major threat to Zimbabwe as it is not known what other foreign organisations he is working for.

The Zimbabwe Police released Josiah Dimbo but he still pauses threats to travel and security in general. I urge that he be placed on a watch list and travel ban to Europe and the USA.

Please be warned not to approach Josiah Dimbo without the company of the police.

 I never posed as Zimbabwe-Angola Business Association(ZABA) coordinator. I was the coordinator. I only received $100 from John Madiro and also $100 from Mary-Ann.Below is her communication to me. I never stole any passport but Mary-Ann gave me her passport on her own accord as she new very well that I was the coordinator of ZABA. As l was responsible for coordinating events I ended up helping crossborders who were going to sell their wares in Angola with visa processing, but then convert money meant for visa processing for five people all Zimbabweans to my own use. Zimbabwe Republic Police never released me but was convicted and sentenced on the matter. Was given community service and ordered to pay back the monies. I was in good books with the Ambassador of Angola and most of the Embassy staff. The problem only arise when I converted the money meant for visas to my own use. l am not a major security threat to any country,Zimbabwe included. Why should l be placed on travel ban in Europe and USA. The author of the report is just bitter about what happened. Got clear evidence that I was working well with the Ambassador and Embassy staff. I am happy to be in touch with you so that l clear the air on the matter Before this mishap I did organise two successful business trips to Angola. Hi Josiah I don't hold any grudges, as I told you at the police station I have already forgiven you. Please make sure that in future you are honest in your dealings with people. The truth shall set you free. If you are able to pay John Madiro and myself back for the visa fees, that would be great. If you cannot, it's alright, although it will take some time for us to remedy the wasted airline tickets. Let's just move on with our lives and leave the negativity behind. Because of the amiable success of our previous trip, I am giving you the benefit of the doubt in returning my passport by Friday (Oct 31), I am not concerned about the $100 visa fee I gave you. If it is not returned to me I shall go to the police, lodge a formal complaint to the Embassy and Govenor of Cuando Cubango. I shall also place a cautionary warning in all the newspapers with your photo, to advice people against dubious scam artists. Goodbye, Mary-Ann Sent from my iPhone
