PLEASE ENDEAVOUR TO USE IT FOR GOD.
Calvary greetings in the name of our lord Jesus Christ I am 57 years old. I am devoted born again Christian, suffering from long time cancer of the lungs. from all indications my conditions is really deteriorating and is quite obvious that I may not live more that six months, because the cancer stage has gotten to a very severe stage. My late husband died in an auto crash. My late husband was very wealthy and after his death, I inherited all his business and wealth. My personal physician told me that I may not live for more than six months and I am so scared about this so I now decided to divide part of this wealth by contributing to the development of evangelism in Africa, America, Europe and Asian Countries. I selected you after visiting your country address directory for this purpose and prayer over it I am willing to donate the sum of ($6.Million US Dollars) to the motherless baby homes, needy, poor, charity homes and widows too. Please note that this fund is deposite
d in the security company therefore my lawyer will file an immediate application for the transfer of the money into your account. Lastly, I want you to be praying for me as regards my entire life and my health because I have come to find out since my spiritual birth lately wealth acquisition without Jesus Christ in ones life is vanity upon vanity. If you have to die says the lord, keep fit and I will give you the crown of life. May the grace of our lord Jesus Christ, the love of God, and the sweet fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you now and forever more Amen.immediately you receive the fund you should take 200,000 hundred thousand us Dollars out of the fund, for your personal keep and you should donate 5.8million US Dollars. Due to my failing health I would be unable to respond to email promptly from my personal email address you should endeavor to contact my lawyer because I have already handed over all proceeds to the lawyer who will immediately file out the funds for you on
my behalf. Below is the lawyer contact.
