Subject: Re:Contact.
FROM: MRS RAMA IDRIS
In Lordship. I am the above named person from Tunisia
but now undergoing medical treatment.
I was married to Dr.Roberts IDRIS who worked with Malaysia embassy in ABIDJAN for nine years, before he died inearly 2004. We were both married for eleven years without children.
He died after a brief illness that lasted for only four days. Before his
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 USD5,500,000.00 (Five Million Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars) with a reliable Finance Company.
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 especially AFRICA 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 am not 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 you claim
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.
Yours in Christ,
Mrs. Rama idris.
