Subject: PLEASE LET ME KNOW
From Mrs.Luz Stella,
Hello my dear friend Forgive my indignation if this message comes to you
as a surprise and may offend your personality for contacting you without
your prior consent and writing through this channel.I got your contact from
a proffesional database found in internet while searching for a reliable
and honest person that will assist us safeguard fund intoan account.I was
divinely inspired to pick your name among other names found in the database
after series of prayers/fasting for Gods direction.
I am Mrs.Luz Stella Castillo Tarboda. person from Colombia undergoing medical
treatment. I was married to Dr. Castillo Tarboda who worked with
Malaysia embassy in South Africa for nine years before he died in the year
2000.We were married for twenty 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.When my late husband was alive he deposited the
sum of$10.6 (Ten Million six hundred thousand U.S.Dollars)with one finance/security
company in EUROPE.Presently,this money is still with the Security Company.Recently,my
Doctor told me that I have six months to live as I am terminally ill with
cancer.Though what disturbs me most is my partial paralysis. Having known
my condition I decided to donate this fund to a church/mosque or better still
a Christian/Moslem individual that will utilize this money the way I am going
to instruct here in.I want a church/Mosque or individual that will use this
to fund churches/Mosque,orphanages and widows,and also give some to the tsunami
victims in asia and also for propagating the word of God and to ensure that
the house of God is maintained.They said blessed is the hand that giveth.
I took this decision because I don't have any child that will inherit this
money and my husband's relatives are not Christians
and I don't want my husband's hard earned money to be mis-used by unbelievers.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 God.If
you will be of assistance,I will surely appreciate and reward you for your
kindness in rendering help to a dying woman. I aWait for your urgent response.
Thank you and God bless.
Yours sincerely,
Mrs.Luz Stella Castillo Tarboda.
