From: Mrs. Safina Roland
Greetings in the name of God. Please let this not sound strange to you.I am
deaf and suffering from a long time cancer of the bream! set which also
affected my brain, from all indication my conditions is really deteriorating
and it is quite obvious that according to my doctors they have advised me
that I may not live for the next six months, this is because the cancer
stage has gotten to a very bad stage. I was brought up from a motherless
baby�s home, married to my late husband for twenty years without a
child. My husband died in a fatal motor accident. Before his death we were
true Christians.
Since his death I decided not to re-marry, I sold all my inherited
belongings and deposited the sum of US$18.3 million dollars with a Security
Company. Presently this money is still with them and the management just
wrote me as the true owner to come forward to receive the money or issue a
letter of authorization to somebody to receive it on my behalf since I can
not come over because of my illness. Presently I'm with my lap top in a
hospital where I have been undergoing treatment for cancer of the lungs. I
have since lost my ability to talk and my doctors have told me that I have
only a few months to live. It is my last wish to see that this money is
invested to any organization of your choice and distributed each year among
the charity organization, the poor and the motherless baby�s home
where I come from. I want you God fearing to also use this money to fund
churches, orphanages and widows.
If you are interested, please contact my Late Husband's Lawyer Barr. Martins
Okolo on email: barr.martinsokolo@universal.pt with the bellow informations.
Then he will give you the contact of the Finance House, and will also issue
you a letter of authority that will prove you as the new beneficiary of this
fund. Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I stated herein.
