Subject: HOW ARE YOU.

Dear Sir/Madam,

PRAISE ALLAH, THE MOST BENEVOLENT

I am Mrs. Jean Ismaina, named person from Kuwait. I am married to Late Malam
Usman Ismaina of blessed memory who worked with Kuwait Embassy in Sudan
for Nine Years before he died in the year 2002.

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 waslive he deposited the sum
of US$50,000,000.00(Fifty Million, Thousand United States Dollars Only)
with National Trade Union Bank in London and presently, this money is still
with the National Trade Union Bank, my Doctor told me that I would not last
for the next Six Months due to Cancer problem. Though what disturbs me most
is my stroke sickness.

Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to either a Muslim
Organization / Charity or devoted Muslim individual that will utilize this
money the way I am going to instruct here-in. I want this Muslim Organization
or Individual to use this money in all sincererity to fund mosques, orphanages,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 new Christians
converts and I don?t want my husband?s hard earned money to be misused in
an unholy manner by people I call unbelievers. Hence the reason for taking
this bold decision. I know that after death I will be with ALLAH the most
beneficent and the most Merciful. I don?t need any Telephone communication
in this regard because of my health and also the presence of my husband's
relatives around me always. I don't want them to know about this development.

Reach my Lawyer (Barr. Walter Richards)

As soon as I receive your reply through Barr. Walter Richards, he Shall
give you the contact of the National Trade Union Bank. I will also issue
you a letter of authority that will prove you as the Original ? Beneficiary
of this fund. I want you and the Muslim 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 Muslim organization/Christian
or a devoted Muslim for his same purpose. Until I hear from you.

May Almighty ALLAH continue to guide and protect you.

In-sha Allah.

Asalamalekun.

Mrs.Jean Ismaina
