CRAVE YOUR INDULGENCE
My Dear in the Lord,
Your first reaction to this mail will be total rejection, scare and may
be unbelief, owing largely to the atrocities people committ these days.
But this mail comes from a devastated, sorrowful and emotional ladened
soul that needs compassion from a kind, and good spirited person to
wipe away my tears, perhaps when i am gone beyond this sinful world. As
an international subject, therefore, with due respect and apology, I
want you to handle it very discreetly, confidentially, and with utmost
secrecy.
For the sake of my children, who are the cardinal focus of this mail,
for their future survival and to avoid embarrassment, I do not want our
family name to be advertised or publicly discussed. Please, treat it as
such and keep it permanently private. If you would not be in the
position to co-operate, please, forgive me for disturbing your peace.
Ignore and delete this message.
I plead in the name of God. My purpose of writing to you is to seek
your assistance to handle and manage my late husband's financial assets
and take adequate care of our young children, John, 12years and
Jennifer, 8years. They are both studying in the Britsh International
School, Dakar Senegal. My name is Mrs Zara Wills wiwliiams . I am a
Senegalais, a widow of circumstance,married to an American Engineer who
resided here in Gambia State Banjul with me before his untimely death.
