Subject: FROM MRS ZENABU ISMAILA/ URGENT BUSINESS REQUEST
Dear Sir/Madam
PRAISE GOD THE MOST BENEVOLENT
I am Mrs Zenabu Ismaila named person from Malaysia. I am married to Late
Malam Usman Ismiala of blessed memory who worked with Malaysian embassy in
Sudan for nine years before he died in the year 2000.We were married for
eleven years without a child,He died after a brief illness that lasted for
only four days,Before his death we were both very devoted muslims.Since his
death I too have been battling with both cancer and fibroid problems.
When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of $10.5Million (Ten
Million Five hundred thousand U.S Dollars) with a bank in Ghana West Africa.
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 cancer problem,Though what
disturbs me most is my stroke sickness that just developed since the braking
news from my doctor Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund
to either a religious organisation or devoted beliver individual that will
utilize this money the way I am going to instruct here-in since i have no
child to inherit this fund when i passed away.
I want this muslim or christian organisation or individual to use this money
in all sincererity to fund mosques,churches. orphanages homes or widows and
also propagating the word of Allah and to ensure that the society upholds
the views and beliefs of the holy Quran.
The holy Quran emphasized so much on Allah'S benevolence and this has
encouraged me to take this bold step,I took this decision because I don't
have any child that will inherit this money and my husband relatives are not
following the way of enternity and I don't want my husband's hard earned
money to be misused by people I call unbelievers.I don't want a situation
where this money will be used in an unholy manner,Hence the reason for
taking this bold decision.
I know that after death I will be with allah the most beneficient and the
most merciful.I don't need any telephone communication in this regard
because of my health as my doctor has warned me against that and also the
presence of my husband's relatives around me always can jeopardise the whole
plans,I don't want them to know about this development.
With ALLAH all things are possible.As soon as I receive your reply I shall
give you the full contact information of the bank for you to contact them
for telegraphic transfer of the money into your account,Therefore you should
send immediately your full name,Address,telephone and fax number,including
the account you would
like the fund to be remitted into.I will also issue you a letter of
authority that will empower you as the original-beneficiary of this fund.I
want you and the Religious community where you reside to always pray for me.
My happiness is that I lived a life of a true devoted muslim worthy of
emulation.Whoever that wants to serve the allah must serve him in truth and
in fairness.Please always be prayerful all through your life.Any delay in
your reply will give me room in sourcing for a religious organisation or a
devoted muslim or christian for this same purpose.
Until I hear from you,my dreams will rest squarely on your shoulders.I will
like you to reply me through this email address:
mrszenabu@zwallet.com
May you continue to guide and protect in all your doing in life.
Regards
Mrs.Zenabu Ismaila.
