Subject: GOD BLESS
Greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, I am Mrs.Joy Bishop, a
widow to Late Mr.Bishop I am 74years old,I am now a new Christian
convert,suffering from long time cancer of the breast.
From all indications my condition is really deteriorating and it's quite
obvious that I won't live more than two months according to my doctors.
This is because the cancer stage has gotten to a very bad stage. My late
husband was killed during the Earthquake resulting to the Tsunami Incident
in Indonesian, and during the period of our marriage we couldn't produce any
child. My late husband was very wealthy and after his death,I inherited all
his business and wealth.
The doctor has advised me that I may not live for more than two months, so I
now decided to divide part of this wealth, to contribute to the development
of the church and Mosque in Africa, America, Asia and Europe.
I selected you after visiting the website and I prayed over it, I am willing
to donate the sum of $15.000,000.00 Million Us Dollars to you for the less
privileged.
Please I want you to note that, this fund is lying in a Security Company and
upon my instuction, you will file in an application for the claim of the
money in your name.
Lastly, I honestly pray that this money when claimed will be used for the
said purpose, because I have come to find out that wealth acquisition
without God is vanity upon vanity.
May the Grace of our Lord , the love of God, and the fellowship of the
HolySpirit be with you and your family.
I await your urgent reply.
Kindly Contact Me through My Personal Assistance Mrs.Joy Godwin
Yours in Christ.
Mrs.Joy Bishop.
