Beloved In Christ,
PLEASE ENDEAVOUR TO USE IT FOR GOD.
Calvary greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, I am Mrs. Rosemary
Oppenheimmer, a widow to Late Mr. Fredrick Oppenheimmer. I am 66 years old;
I am now a new Christian convert, suffering from long time cancer of the
breast. From all indications, my condition is really deteriorating and is
quite obvious according to my Doctor that I may not live more than six
months, because the cancer stage has gotten to a very severe stage.
My late husband was reputable Diamond Businessman and among the shear
holders of De Beers Diamonds and Anglo Gold here in South Africa, and during
the period of our marriage we had a son who was also killed in a motor
Accident. 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 the website for this purpose and prayed over
it, I am willing to donate the sum of $5.000, 000.00 Million US Dollars to
the motherless baby homes, needy, poor, charity /Aid Orphanage homes and
widows too. Since his death I decided not to re-marry, I sold all my
inherited belongings and deposited all the sum of $5million dollars with a
Security and Finance Company here in South Africa . Presently, this money
is still with them and the management just wrote me the true owner to come
forward to receive the money for keeping it so long or rather issue a letter
of authorization to somebody to receive it on my behalf since I cannot come
over because of my illness or they get it confisticated.
Upon your response I will give you the information that you will use to
contact the Security Company for the release of this fund to your bank
account.
Please do not reply me if you have the intention of using this fund for
personal use other than enhancement of evangelism.
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 that
wealth acquisition without Jesus Christ in one's 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.
I await your urgent reply.
Yours in Christ
Evangelist Mrs. Rosemary Oppenheimmer
