Dear Beloved,I am the above named person from London. I am married to Mr.Cletus John who worked with United Kingdom embassy in Nigeriafor nine years before he died in the year 2000.We were marriedfor eleven years without a child. He died after a brief illnessthat lasted for only four days.Before his death we were both born again Christian. Since hisdeath I decided not to remarry or get a child outside mymatrimonial home,which the Bible is against. When my latehusband was alive he deposited the sum of $6.8Million (SixMillion Eight hundred thousand U.S. Dollars)
with one Security Company in Europe. Presently, this money isstill with the Security Company. Recently, my Doctor told methat I would not last for the next Eight months due to cancerproblem. The one that disturbs me most is my stroke sickness.Having known my condition I decided to keep this fund inEurope.I want an organization or an individual that will use this fundfor orphanages, widows, propagating the word of God and toendeavor that the house of God is maintained. The Bible made usto understand that Blessed is the hand that giveth. I took thisdecision because I don't have any child that will inherit thismoney and my husband relatives are not Christians and I don'twant my husbands efforts to be used by unbelievers.I don't want a situation where this money will be used in anungodly way. This is why I am taking this decision. I am notafraid of death hence I know where I am going. I know that I amgoing to be in the bosom of the Lord. Exodus 14 VS 14 says thatthe lord will fight my case and I shall hold my peace. I don'tneed any telephone communication in this regard because of myhealth hence the presence of my husband's relatives around mealways. 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 inform the securitycompany in Europe that you are the beneficiary of the saidconsignment you will need to go and claim this fund in Europe.I will also issue you an authority letter that will prove youthe present beneficiary of this fund. I want you and theorganization to always pray for me because the lord is myshepherd. My happiness is that I lived a life of a worthy
Christian. Whoever that wants to serve the Lord must serve himin spirit and truth. Please always be prayerful all throughyour life.Any delay in your reply will give me room in sourcing anotherperson for this same purpose. Please assure me that you willact accordingly as I stated herein. If you want to talk byphone, you can contact my lawyer via his email :
