Dear Sir,Madam:

Greetings in the wonderful name of our Lord Jesus! May the
Lord?s favour and peace be multiplied to you, see Numbers
6:24-26; 2 Peter 1:2. The word of God also says,"They that
wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength, they shall
mount up with wings as eagles: they shall run, and not be
weary, and they shall walk, and not faint." Isaiah 40:31.

It is a priviledge to share this great testimony with you,
to God be thy glory. I am Brother Henry Tam happilly
married to my wife with Four children. During a prayer and
fasting session in our church i asked God Almighty to
direct me to an honest person that will use this Fund
righteously to reach the needy, the less priviledge and
lost souls. For the word of God says, "what shall it profit
a man if he gains the whole world, and loose his soul". The
bible also says, "the blessing of God comes supernaturally
and it is through Divine favour".

The amount involved, is $16.5m US dollar (sixteen million,
five hundred US dollars) This said fund was acquired,when i
was working with an International Oil Firm in my Country,I
was the field operational Manager of Exporting of CRUDE OIL
in my Company when i was in the world. I gave my life to
God Almighty after my predicaments in the world and God
really touched my life.Then, after given my life to God, i
packaged and sealed the fund in a consignment box and
deposited the consignment box that contained the fund with
a Security Company, ready for delivery and to invest the
fund on the things that will glorify the name of our Lord
Jesus Christ for Hiswonderful deeds in my life.

Beloved, i will like you to immediately send me your
particulars, full names, full address, direct telephone and
fax numbers to enable me procure the necessary documents
covering the fund,making you the sole beneficiary of the
fund.

As soon as i receive your particulars, I will start up all
the necessary process on how the funds will get to you. Be
informed that as soon as this fund is in your possession, i
shall join you in your country to see how the fund will be
used for the things that will glorify God and to give
thanks to God.Kindly reply to my personal email
address.henrytam@mail2director.com or call me on
+447040117003.

Awaiting your prompt response.


Yours in Christ,
Brother Henry Tam.

IN GOOD FAITH
