Subject: Will you be of help?
Dear One,Good Day,
My name is Rose Konga,a wife to late Mr.Greg Konga who was an oil merchant.Right now, I have been diagnosed with lung cancer and have been in the hospital for a very long time. It has defied all forms of medical treatment, and right now I have about few months to live,according to the medical
experts.
My husband was wealthy and after his death I inherited all his business and wealth.My late husband did not lived his life so well, as he never really cared for anyone (not even himself) but his business and wealth. Though he was rich, he was never generous, he was always hostile to people and
only focused on his business as that was the only thing he cared for. Now I am regretting all these as I now know that there is more to life than just wanting to have or make all the money in the world.
I believe when God gives me a second chance to come to this world I will live my life a different way from how I have lived it till date. Now that God is calling me, I have willed and shared most of my late husband's properties and assets to my immediate and extended family members, including few
close friends.
I want God to be merciful to me and accept my soul, so I have
decided to give alms to charity organizations,as I want this to be one of the last good deeds I do on earth before Gods call. I want this last of my money ($3.2M) three million two hundred thousand united states dollars which is with a finance company to be distributed to the less privileged ones
and ($7.3M) seven million three hundred thousand united state dollars for upbringing of our only son Richmond.
I will like you to dispatch this, if you are in the position, to the charitable organizations as my promise to God.
I am sorry if you are embarrassed by my mail but if for any reason you find this offensive,you can ignore it and please accept my apology.I honestly pray that this money when transferred to you will sure be utilized for the said purpose because I have come to find out that wealth acquisition
without God is vanity.
May the grace, love, and the fellowship of GOD be with you and your family.
I awaits your response as soon as you receive this message.
Yours Sister,
Rose Konga.
