MRS HELEN OTI
22 NELSON MANDELA ROAD,
JONNESBOUGH,
SOUTH AFRICA
Dear Beloved.
PLEASE ENDEAVOUR TO USE IT FOR THE CHILDREN OF GOD. I am the above
named person from SOUTH AFRICA. I am married to Dr.JOHNSON Oti, who worked
with canadian embassy in south africa for nine years before he died in the
year2000. We were married for eleven 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 hisdeath I decided not to re-marry or
get a child outside my matrimonial home which the Bible is against.
When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of$7.5 Million
(seven Million five hundred thousand U.S.Dollars) with a SECURIY COMPANY in
Europe.
Presently, this money is still under the safe keeping of the Reserve
SECURITY COMPANY Recently, my Doctor told me that I would not last for
the nextSEVEN months due to my cancer problems.
Though what disturbs me most is my stroke .Having known my condition, I
decided to donate this fund to church or better still a christian
individualThat will utilize this money the way I am going toinstruct
here in. I want a church that will use this fund on, orphanages and widows
propagating theword of God and to ensure that the house of God is
maintained. The
Bible made us to understand that 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 relativesare not Christians and I don't want my
husband's hard earned money to be misused by unbelievers. I don't want a
situation where this money will be used in an ungodly manner. Hence the
reason
for takingthis 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 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 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 forward your personal information to the security company in europe
so
that they will contact you as the legal owner of this fund before
transfering the fund into your nominated Bank Account in your country.
I will also issue you a letter of a uthority that will empower you as
the original- beneficiary of this fund. I want you and the church to
always pray for me because the lord is my shephard. 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 beprayerful all
through
your any delay in your reply will give me room in sourcing for a church
or christian individual for this same purpose. Please assure me that you
will act accordingly as I stated herein. Hoping to hear from you as soon as
possible.
Remain blessed in the name of the Lord.
Yours in Christ,
Mrs Helen Oti
