Subject: BENEFICIARY
Dear Beloved in Christ.
It is by the grace of God that I received Christ, having known the
truth, I had no choice than to do what is lawful and just in the sight of
God for eternal life and in the sight of man for witness of God & His
Mercies and glory upon my life.
I am Mrs.Mary Parker, the wife of Mr Robert Parker, my husband worked
with the Chevron/Texaco in Kenya for twenty years before he died in the
year 2003.We were married for ten years without a child. My Husband
died after a brief illness that lasted for only four days. Before his
death we both got born-again and dedicated christians. Since his death I
decided not to re-marry or get a child outside my matrimonial home which
the Bible is strongly against.When my late husband was alive he
deposited the sum of US$7.5 Million.(Seven Million Five Hundred Thousand
U.S.Dollars) with a Bank in Europe. Presently, this money is still with the
Bank and the management just wrote me as the beneficiary that our
account has been DORMANT and if I, as the beneficairy of the funds, do not
re-activate the account; the funds will be CONFISCATED or I rather issue
a letter of authorization to somebody to receive it on my behalf (note
that you need to activate this account) as I can not come over.
Presently, I'm in a hospital in Kenya where I have been undergoing treatment
for esophageal cancer. I have since lost my ability to talk and my
doctors have told me that I have only a few weeks to live. It is my last
wish to see this money distributed to charity organizations anywhere in
the World. Because relatives and friends have plundered so much of my
wealth since my illness, I cannot live with the agony of entrusting this
huge responsibility to any of them. Please, I beg you in the name of
God to help me Stand-in as the beneficiary and collect the Funds from the
Bank.
I want a person that is God-fearing who will use this money to fund
churches, orphanages and widows propagating the word 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's
relatives are 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 taking this bold
decision.I am not afraid of death since I know where I am going to. I
know that I am going to be in the bosom of the Lord. {Exodus14 VS14}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 soundless
voice and 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.

Your Sister in Christ,
Mrs.Mary Parker.
