Mrs. Tina Kim
Kementerian Dalam Negeri,

Lumpur,
Malaysia.
My beloved ,
I am the above named person from Malaysia. I am married to Dr. Peter Kim who worked with Australia embassy in BRAZIL for nine years before he died in the year 2003.
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
muslims.Since his death I decided not to re-marry or get a child outside my
matrimonial home which the Bible is against.
When mylate husband was alive he deposited the sum of $9.5Million
(Nine Million five hundred thousand U.S. Dollars) in a finance/security
company. Presently, this money is still with the Security Company.
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. Having known my condition I
decided to donate this fund to charitable organisation or better still
a christian individual that will utilize this money the way I am going
to instruct here in. I want an organisation or individual that will use
this to fund churches, orphanages 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 don't have any child that will inherit
this money and my husband relatives are not Christians and I don t want
my husband's 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 where I am going. I know that I am going to be in the bossom
of the Lord.
Exodus 14 VS 14 says that the lord will fight my case and I shall hold
my peace. I don t need any telephone communication in this regard
because of my health,and because of the presence of my husband's relatives
around me always. I don t want them to know about this development. With
God all things are possible. As soon as I receive your reply I shall
give you the contact of the Finance/Security Company. 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 church to always pray for me because the lord is my shepherd. My happiness is that I lived 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 herein. Hoping to hear from you.
PLEASE GET IN TOUCH WITH ME ON THIS E-MAIL ADDRESS:( tinakim1@tiscali.it)
Remain blessed in the name of the Lord.
Yours in Christ,
Mrs. Tina Kim
