LETTER FROM: Mrs. ROSA LOPZE
In lordship I am the above named person from Tunisia but now undergoing
medical treatment. I was married to Dr.Roberts LOPZE who worked with We were
both married for eleven years without children. He died after a brief
illness that lasted for only four days. Before he death we were both
Christians and since his death I decided not to re-marry. When my late
husband was alive he deposited the sum of USD7, 600,000.00 (seven Million
six Hundred Thousand dollars with a reliable
Finance Company). Although is was deposited as a concernment with the
security company but they did not know the content in side the box was
money.
I will send you details as soon as you indicate your interest.
Recently,my Doctor told me that I would not last for the next Six months
due to my cancer illness. Having known my condition and believing the doctor
I have decided to donate this fund to avoid total loss to church, Less
privilege,or better still a Christian individual that will utilize this
money the way ,I am going to instruct herein.I want interested church or
individual that will receive and use this money to help churches,
orphanages, widows and propagating the Gospel and to ensure that the house
of God is maintained. Please do not fail to spread the funds across the
globe as soon as you receive the
money.
The Bible made us to understand that it is more blessed to give than
to receive. I took this decision because I don't have any child that will
inherit this money and my husband relatives are fighting over the properties
and I don't want my husband's hard earned
money to be misused by their greedy attitude. 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 amnot afraid of death since I am a good Christian. I
know that I am going to be in the bosom 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 information of the Finance Company and other details that will
enable youclaim the funds. I will also issue you a letter of
authority/Power of Attorney that will make you the beneficiary of this fund.
I want you 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. I sent you this mail under severe pains. Any delay in your reply will
be detrimental. Please
assure me that you will act accordingly.
Hoping to hear from you immediately.
Remain blessed in the name of the Lord.
Remain blessed
Mrs. ROSA LOPZE
