REQUEST FOR AN URGENT DONATION FOR ORPHANS.
MY DEAREST IN CHRIST, MAY GOD BE PRAISED.
I AM MRS. AHMED MAKAWI FROM AUSTRALIA.I AM MARRIED TO MR. ZAKI AHMED MAKAWI
OF HIS BLESSED MEMORY WHO WAS AN OIL MERCHANT. WE WERE MARRIED FOR TWENTY
SEVEN YEARS WITHOUT A CHILD; HE DIED AFTER A BRIEF ILLNESS THAT LASTED ONLY
FOUR DAYS BEFORE HIS DEATH. HE WAS A VERY DEVOUTED MUSLEM AND I A DEVOUTED
CHRISTIAN BY BIRTH AND AT THIS MOMENT BATTLING BOTH CANCER AND FIBROID
ILLNESS. WHEN MY LATE HUSBAND WAS ALIVE, HE DEPOSITED THE SUM OF EIGHTEEN
MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND U.S DOLLARS (18.5MILLION DOLLARS) WITH AN
OVERSEA FINANCE AND SECURITY FIRM. PRESENTLY THIS MONEY IS STILL WITH THE
FINANCE AND SECURITY FIRM AND RECENTLY MY DOCTOR TOLD ME THAT I HAVE
TERMINAL ILLNESS (CANCER) THAT I HAVE A VERY SHORT TIME TO LIVE. HAVING
KNOWN MY CONDITION, WHAT BORDERS ME MOST IS MY CANCER. I HAVE DECIDED TO
DONATE PART OF MY HUSBANDS WEALTH TO EITHER A TRUSTWORTHY, GOD FEARING
PERSON OR ORGANIZATION THAT WILL UTILIZE THE MONEY THE WAY I AM GOING TO
INSTRUCT THEREAFTER.
I WANT YOU TO USE THIS MONEY IN ALL SINCERITY TO SHARE IT TO CHARITY HOMES
AND ORPHANAGES IN YOUR COUNTRY, TO FIGHT AGAINST STARVING HUMANITY WHICH
TRANSCENDS ETHNIC, TRIBAL AND RELIGIOUS BONDS. THE HOLY BIBLE AND THE KORAN
EMPHASIZED SO MUCH ON GIVING ALMS TO CHARITY. I TOOK THIS DECISION BECAUSE
IT WAS AN INSTRUCTION FROM MY LATE HUSBAND BEFORE HE DIED TO SHARE THIS
MONEY TO CHARITY HOMES SINCE WE DO NOT HAVE ANY CHILD AND I DO NOT WANT MY
LATE HUSBAND’S FUNDS TO BE MISUSED BY PEOPLE THAT ARE NOT TRUST WORTHY. I
DON’T WANT A SITUATION WHERE THIS MONEY WILL BE MISUSED HENCE THE REASON
FOR TAKING THIS BOLD DECISION IS TO PROVIDE FOR ORPHANS. I KNOW THAT WHEN I
DIE, I WILL REST IN PEACE WITH THE MOST HIGH AND THE MOST MERCIFUL ONE IF
MY WHISH IS ACCOMPLISHED BEFORE I DIE. KINDLY INCLUDE YOUR TELEPHONE NUMBER
AND FAX NUMBER WHERE I CAN CALL YOU WHEN RESPONDING TO THIS LETTER. WITH
GOD, I KNOW THAT ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE AND AS SOON AS I RECEIVE YOUR
REPLY, I SHALL GIVE YOU THE CONTACT OF THE FINANCE AND SECURITY FIRM AND I
SHALL INSTRUCT THEM TO CHANGE THE OWNERSHIP IN YOUR NAME, I WILL ALSO ISSUE
YOU A POWER OF ATTORNEY THROUGH MY LAWYER WHOM I WILL INTRODUCE TO YOU AS
SOON AS I RECEIVE YOUR REPLY. I WANT YOU TO ALWAYS PRAY FOR ME. PLEASE FOR
THE HELP YOU ARE RENDERING TO THE CHILDREN OF GOD, I WOULD WANT 20% OF THE
MONEY TO GO TO YOU AND YOU’RE FAMILY WHILE THE REST WILL BE USED FOR THE
WORK OF GOD. MY HAPPINESS IS THAT I LIVED A LIFE OF A TRUE DEVOUT CHRISTIAN
THOUGH MARRIED TO A MOSLEM, LOVE CONQUERS ALL. WHO EVER THAT WANTS TO SERVE
GOD SHOULD SERVE HIM IN TRUTH AND SPIRIT, PLEASE ALWAYS BE PRAYERFUL. ANY
DELAY IN YOUR REPLY WILL GIVE ME ROOM TO SOURCE FOR ANOTHER TRUST WORTHY
ORGANIZATION OR DEVOTED PERSON FOR THE SAME PURPOSE. WHILE I WAIT TO HEAR
FROM YOU I PRAY FOR DIVINE GUIDANCE AND PROTECTION OVER YOU AND YOU’RE
FAMILY.
YOURS FAITHFULLY,
MRS. DOLARES AMED MAKAWI.
