Subject: URGENT INFORMATION TO YOU.
URGENT INFORMATION TO YOU.
I am AMINA ABID from Afghanistan. I am married to Late MALLAM SHEIK ABID
of blessed memory who is an oil explorer in Afghanistan, Libya and Kuwait
for twelve years before his death. He was killed during the U.S. raid against
terrorism in Afghanistan and during our marriage we could not have any child.
Presently, I am suffering from long time cancer of the breast and fibroid
and have visited hospitals without success. From all indication, my condition
is really deteriorating and it is quite obvious that I may not live up to
six months according to my doctors. This is because the cancer stage has
gotten to a very bad stage.
When my late Husband was alive he deposited the sum of $12 million (Twelve
Million U.S Dollars) in a trunk box with a Security Company in oversea.Having
known my condition I now selected you after visiting the Chambers of Commerce
and Industry and prayed over it. I am willing to donate this fund to either
a Christian or Muslim organization or devoted individual that will utilize
this money the way I am going to instruct herein.
I want you or this organization to use this money in all sincerity to contribute
to the development and assistance of less privileged and victims of war in
Africa, South America, Asia and to ensure that the society upholds the views
God. I took this decision because I don't have any child that will inherit
this money and my husband relatives now hate me so much because I do not
agree and support their wicked ways.
I don't want a situation where this money will be used in an Unholy manner,
hence the reasons for this bold decision.
I know that after death I will be with ALLAH the most beneficent and the
most merciful. I will prefer to communicate via mail to telephone communication
in this regard not just for my bad health condition but basically because
of the presence of my husband's relatives around me always. 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 contact information
of the Security Company and the country in oversea where the money was deposited.
I will also issue a letter of authority to the Security Company authorizing
them that the said fund Have being willed to you and a copy of such authorization
will be forwarded to you.
My happiness is that I lived a true devoted Muslim worthy of emulation. Whoever
that wants to serve ALLAH must serve him in truth and in fairness. Please
always be prayerful all through your life. Any delay in your reply will give
room in sourcing for a devoted person for this same purpose. Until I hear
from you, my dreams will rest squarely on your shoulders.
May the Almighty ALLAH continue to guide and protect you.
Regards,
HAJIA AMINA ABID.
