Subject: My Dearest in christ
My Dearest in christ
My name is Mrs. Sandra Makota a nationality of Kuwait. I am married to late
Mr. JAMES Makota who worked with Kuwait embassy in Ivory Coast for nine
years before he died in the year Octorber 2003. We were married for twenty
years with a child. He died after a the illness that lasted for four days.
Please I know this may come to you by supprise , because you did not know
me, I needed your assistance that was why I write you through divine
direction, it is my desire of going into relationship with you.
Before his death we were both born again Christians.When my late husband was
alive we deposited the sum of (Ten Million U.S.Dollars) with one of good
banks here in Cote d'Ivoire Presently, this money is still with the bank.
Recently my Doctor told me that I would not last for the next three months
due to my cancer problem,Though what disturbs me most is my stroke. Having
known my condition I decided to donate this fund to church or better still a
Christian individual that will utilize this money the way I am going to
instruct here in.I want a person or church that will use this fund to
churches,orphanages, research centres and widows propagating the word of God
and to ensure that the house of God is maintained.
The Bible made us to understand that blessed is the hand that giveth. I took
this decision because I have a child that will inherit this money but my son
can not carryout this work only because i and my late husband decide to use
some of the money to work for God and live some for our son to have a better
live.our son is just 17yearold now and been grow up in africa, he have low
manterity and my husband's relatives are not Christians and I don't want my
family hard earned money to be misused by unbelievers,I don't want a
situation where this money will be used in an ungodly manner.Hence the
reason for taking this bold decision. I am not afraid of death hence I know
that I am going to be in the bosom of the Lord. Exodus 14 VS 14 says that
the lord will fight my case and I shall hold my peace.
I will like you to understand that my contact to you is a divine direction
from God , I don't want any of my husband family relatives to recieve this
money but I know that With God all things are possible. As soon as I
receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the Finance/bank. I will
also issue you a letter of authority that will empower you as the new
beneficiary of this fund. I want you and the church to always pray for me
because the lord is my shepherd. My happiness is that I live a life of a
worthy Christian.Whoever that wants to serve the Lord must serve him in
spirit and truth,Please always be prayerful all through your life. Any delay
in your reply will give me room in sourcing for a church or Christian
individual for this same purpose. Please assure me that you will act
accordingly as I stated here and Please I will like you to contact me
Immediately you receive this mail so that I will instruct the Bank to
transfer this fund into your account for me and my Son to start coming over
there because since now we are having a very big problem in Abidjan for
political crisis so we need this transaction very urgent.
Remain blessed in the name of the Lord.
Mrs. Sandra Makota and Son Johnson
