Dearest in Christ, I need your help
Calvary greeting to you and your family. My name is Mrs Rita Williams, a
scottish, but I am married to Mr John Williams who is the Managing Director of
Shell Petro-Chemical Company, before he died in the plane crash of Oct 23, 2005
[with Bellview Airlines twin-engine Boeing 737] with other passengers aboard all
117 passage died, as you can confirm it yourself through this web site
(http://edition.cnn.com/2005/WORLD/africa/10/23/nigeria.plane/)
(http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/10/23/AR2005102300368.html)
We were married for eleven years without a child. Before he death we were both
born again Christians. When my late husband was alive we deposited the sum of
USD$16.5Million (Sixteen Million Five hundred thosand U.S. Dollars) with one of
good bank here in Nigeria. Presently, this money is still with Union Bank of
Nigeria.
Recently, my Doctor told me that I would not last for the next three months
due to cancer problem. Though what disturbs me most is my stroke. Having known
my condition I decided to donate this fund to church or better still Christian
individual that will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct here in.
I want a church that will use this fund less priviledge homes, orphanages, Research
centres and widows propagating the word of God and to ensured that the house of
God is maintained. The Bible made us to understand that blessed is the hand that
griveth.
I took this decision because I don't have any child that will inherit this
money and my husband relatives are not Christians and I don;t want my family
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 hence I know where I am going. I know
that I am going to be in the bosom of the Lord. Exodus 14 VS 14 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 health. As soon as I receive your reply
I shall give you the contact information of the bank.
I will also need to get a reliable attorney to assist you as the new
beneficiary of this fund. I want you and the church to always pray for me
because the lord is my shepherd. My happiness is that I lived a life of a worthy
Christian.Whoever that wants to serve the Lord must serve him in spirit and
truth. Any delay in your reply will give me room in sourcing for a Christian individual for this same purpose.
Please assure me that you will act Accordingly as I stated here.Expecting to
hearing from you, reply back to my alternative email for security purpose

Remain blessed in the name of the Lord.
Yours in Christ,
Madam Rite John Williams.
