Subject: I NEED A TRUSTEE
Hello BelovedMy name is Mrs.Iris Wells I am a dying woman who has decided to donate what I have to charity through you.You may be wondering why I chose you. But someone has to be chosen. I am 59 years old and was diagnosed for cancer about 2years ago,immediately after the death of my husband who had left me everything he worked for.I have been touched by the lord to donatefrom what I have inherited from my late husband tocharity through you for the good work of humanity,rather than allow my relatives to use myhusband's hard earned funds inappropriately.I have asked the lord to forgive me all my sins and I believe he has,because He is merciful. I will be going in for an operation,and I pray that I survive the operation.I have decided to Willing/Donate the sum of (TEN Million THREE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS)to charity through you for the good work of the lord,and to help the motherless,less privileged and also for the assistance of the widows. At the moment Icannot take any
telephone calls, due to the fact that my relatives are around me and I have been restricted by my doctor from taking telephone calls because Ideserve all the rest I can get.Presently,I have informed my lawyer about my decision in WILLING this fund to charity through you. I wish you all the best and may the good Lord bless youabundantly, and please use the funds well and alwaysextend the good work to others.If you are interested to be bless, also willing to bless other's too,I will inform my Family Lawyer so that he can arrange the release of the funds to you. I know i have never met you but my mind tells me to do this and I hope you are sincerely.I will pay you 30%of this money if you will assist me because I am now too weak and frigile to do things myself because of my cancer.NB: I will appreciate your utmost confidentiality inthis matter until the task is accomplished,as I don'twant anything that will Jeopardize my last wish, dueto the fact that I do not want relatives or
familymembers standing in the way of my last wish.for security reason: kindly reply to this email address below: (iriswells44@yahoo.com.hkLove,From Mrs Iris WellsReply to this email: iriswells44@yahoo.com.hk
