Dear Friend,
>From Mrs Amanda William Taborda,
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 on the internet while searching for a
reliable and honest person that will
assist us safeguard fund into an 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.Amanda William Taborda. person from Colombia undergoing
medical treatment. I was married to Dr.
Castillo Taborda 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
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.Amanda William Taborda
