Greetings in the name of the Lord,
I am Ms. Anouk John Stenger, nationality of Holland. I am married to Dr. John Stenger of
united state who worked with Chevron Texaco as oil consultant/contractor in Africa for
twenty years before he died in the year 2000.We were married for twenty-seven years
without a child. He died during one of the riot in the Niger delta region .He was held
hostage and slain to death by protesting youths of the region.
Before his death we were both born again Christians. Since his death I decided not to
re-marry. When my late husband was alive he made a numbered time (Fixed) deposited for
twelve calendar months, valued at $8m.usd (Eight Million U.S.Dollars) with security code
number XM/DIP9078654. With a security financial firm in Europe. Meanwhile, this money is
still with the security company and the management just wrote me as the beneficiary to come
forward to receive the money or rather issue a letter of authorization to somebody to
receive it on my behalf.
Presently, i am with my laptop in a hospital where I have been undergoing treatment for
cancer of the lungs. I have since lost my ability to talk and my doctors have told me that
I have only a few months to live. It is my last wish to see that this money is invested and
proceed at the end of every year distributing items among charity organization. I want a
person that is God fearing that 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
know that there are a lot of poor people suffering from different kind of disease and
nobody to come to their aid.
With God all things are possible. As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the
contact of the Security Company. I will also issue you a letter of authority that will
prove you as the new beneficiary of this fund. You will be entitled to 40%. Please assure
me that you will act accordingly as I stated here in.
Hoping to hearing from you soon. Please reply to this email address:
ms_stenger@myway.com
Yours in Christ,
Ms. Anouk John Stenger.
