From: "Mrs. Linda Rhode" <info@lindarhode.com>
Date: Tue, 14 Jun 2005 16:23:50 +0000
Subject: SOLICITATION.
Dear Sir,
My name is Mrs. Linda Rhode a merchant in Dubai, in the U.A.E. I have been
diagnosed with Esophageal cancer and It has defied all forms of medical
treatment and right now I have only about a few months to live according to
medical experts in Hong Kong.Iam married to Engr.Peter Rhode who worked with
an oil company in saudi Arabia for nine years before he died in the year
2000. 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 it. When my
late husband was alive he deposited the sum of $12.5Million (twelve
Million,five hundred thousand U.S. Dollars) with a bank in Europe.
Presently, this money is still with the bank in Europe,so Having known my
condition I decided to donate this fund to churches,charitiable organisation
or better still a christian individual that will utilize this money the way
I am going to instruct here in. I want an individual that will use this to
fund churches,charitiable organisation 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.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.
As soon as I receive your reply I shall write a letter of authorization that
will empower you as the original- beneficiary of this fund. I want you to
always pray for me because the lord is my shephard. My happiness is that I
lived a life of a worthy Christian. Whosoever that wants to serve the Lord
must serve him in truth and spirit. Please always be prayerful all through
your life. Any delay in your reply will give me room in sourcing for
churches or christian individual for this same purpose.
Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I stated herein.
Hoping to hear from you.
Remain blessed in the name of the Lord,
Mrs.LINDA RHODE.
