MRS. JOY ANU
PLOT 765 WATER FRONTBOSTON HOUSEPMB
87006 SANDTON CITY, JOHANNESBURG
SOUTH AFRICA,
Dear,
I am the above named person from Kuwait. I am married to Dr. Kazeem Anu, who
worked with Kuwait embassy in South Africa 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 both born again Christians. Since his death I decided not to
re-marry or get a child outside my matrimonial home, which the Bible is
against. When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of$12 Million
(Twelve Million U.S. Dollars) with a Reserve / Security company. Presently,
this money is still under the safe keeping of the Reserve /Security company.
Recently, my Doctor told me that I would not last for the next three months
due to my cancer problems. Though what disturbs me most is my stroke. Having
known my condition, I decided to donate this fund to an organization or
better still a God fearing individual that will utilize this money the way I
am going to instruct here in.
I want a fellow that will use this fund on, 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 reasons 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 blossom
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 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 will forward your personal information to
my lawyer and the Security Company so that they will contact you as the
legal owner of this fund before transferring the fund into your nominated
Bank Account in your country. I will also issue you a letter of authority
that will empower you as the original-beneficiary of this fund.
I want you and your family to always pray for me because the lord is my
shepherd.My happiness is that I lived worthy life as a God fearing person.
Whoever that wants to serve the Lord must serve him in spirit and truth.
Please always be prayerful all through your life.Please assure me that you
will act accordingly as I stated here in.this is the contact of a lawyer
that I have contacted to take care of this
transaction,personal contact so get in touch with him and know what is
required of you, as to be able to do the needed.
