Subject: ATTENSION
ALLAH IS OUR BENOVOLENT.
I am Mrs. Iyesa Ismiana, named person from Turkey. I am married to Late Malam Usman Ismiana of blessed memory who worked with Turkey embassy in Senegal for nine years before he died in the year 2002.We were married for eleven years without a child. He died after a brief illness that lasted for only four days, before his death we were both very devoted Muslims. Since his death I too have been battling with both cancer and fibroid problems.
When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of$13.5 Million (thirteen million Five hundred thousand U.S. Dollars) with an oversea security company and presently, this money is still with the Security Company. Recently, my Doctor told me that I would not last for the next Six months due to cancer problem. Though what disturbs me most is my stroke sickness, Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to either a Moslem organization/charity or devoted Muslim individual that will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct here- in. I want this Muslim organization or individual to use this money in all sincerer to fund mosques, orphanages, widows and also propagating the word of ALLAH and to ensure that the society upholds the views and beliefs of the holy Quran.
The holy Quran emphasized so much on ALLAH'S benevolence and this has encouraged me to take this bold step. I took this decision because I don'thave any child that will inherit this money and my husband relatives are new Christians converts and I don't want my husband's hard earned money to be misused in an unholy manner by people I call unbelievers. Hence the reason for taking this bold decision. I know that after death I will be with ALLAH the most beneficent and the most merciful. I don't need any telephone communication in this regard because of my health and also the presence of my husband\'s relatives around me always. I don't want them to know about this development. I will also issue you a letter of authority that will prove you as the original-beneficiary of this fund.
I want you and the Muslim community where you reside to always pray for me. My happiness is that I lived a life of a true devoted Muslim worthy of emulation. Whoever that wants to serve the ALLAH must serve him in truth and in fairness. Please always be prayerful all through your life. Any delay in your reply will give me room in sourcing for a Muslim organization/Christian or a devoted Muslim for this same purpose. Until I hear from you. May almighty ALLAH continue to guide and protect you.
Yours faithfully,
Mrs. Iyesa Ismaina
