Subject: Personal
From: Mrs. Karen Walter.
26 Kensington Court,
London, England.
I am the above named person but now undergoing medical treatment in London,
England. I am married to Dr. Jim Walter who worked with British Railway
Commission in Chelsea England for over a decade before he died on 5th of
July in the year 2003. We were married for fifteen years without a child. He
died after a brief illness that lasted for two weeks.Before his death he
made a vow to use his wealth for the down trodden and the less privileged in
the society.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 Million (Ten
Million Pounds sterling) in a Vault with a security/Finance House in
Europe.Presently,this money is still there. Recently, my Doctor told me
that I would not last for the next 150days due to cancer problem.
Though what disturbs me most is my cancer. Having known my condition I
decided to donate this fund to an individual or better still a God fearing
person who will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct here in. I
want an individual that will use this fund to provide succor to poor and
indigent persons, orphanages, and above all those affected in the Tsunami in
far Asia.
I understand that blessed is the hand that giveth. I took this decision
because I do not have any child that will inherit this money and my husband
relatives are not inclined to helping poor persons and I do not want my
husbands hard earned money to be misused or spent in the manner in which my
late husband did not specify. I do not 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 bosom of the Almighty.
I do not need any telephone communication in this regard because of my
health, and because of the presence of my husbands relatives around me
always. I do not 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 of the
Security/Finance House in Europe. I will also issue you a letter of
authority that will empower you as the original beneficiary of this
fund,through my Lawyer. I want you to always pray for me. My happiness is
that I lived a life worthy of emulation. Whosoever that wants to serve the
Almighty must serve him with all his heart and mind and soul and also in
truth. Please always be prayerful all through your life. Any delay in your
reply will give me room in sourcing for an individual for this same
purpose.Please assure me that you will act according to my specification
herein. Hoping to hear from you.
Thank you and may the Almighty bless you.
