Subject: Re:thanks!!!
Dear Beloved in Christ,
It is by the grace of God that I
received Christ, having known the truth; I had no choice than to do what
is lawful and just in the sight of God for eternal life and in the sight
of man for witness of God & His Mercies and glory upon my
life.
I am Mrs. Mary Parker,the wife of Mr.Robert Parker,both
of us are citizens of the united state of America. my husband worked with
the Chevron/Texaco in Russia for twenty years before he died in the year
2003.We were married for ten years without a child. My Husband died after
a brief illness that lasted for only four days. Before his death we both
got born-again as dedicated Christians. Since his death I decided not to
re-marry or get a child outside my matrimonial home which the Bible is
strongly against. When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of
7.5 Million Euro (Seven Million Five Hundred Thousand Euro) with a Bank in
Europe.
Presently, this money is still with the Bank and the
management just wrote me as the beneficiary that our account has been
DORMANT and if I, as the beneficiary of the funds, do not re-activate the
account; the funds will be CONFISCATED or I rather issue a letter of
authorization to somebody to receive it on my behalf (note that you need
to activate this account) as I can not come over. Presently, I'm in a
hospital in Russia where I have been undergoing treatment for esophageal
cancer. I have since lost my ability to talk and my doctors have told me
that I have only a few weeks to live. It is my last wish to see this money
distributed to charity organizations and NGO anywhere in the World in
helping human race.
Because relatives and friends haveplundered so much of my wealth since my illness, I cannot live with the agony of entrusting this huge responsibility to any of them. Please, I beg
you in the name of God to help me Stand-in as the beneficiary and collect
the Funds from the Bank.I want a person that is God-fearing who will use this money to fund churches,orphanages and widows propagatingthe 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 don't have any child that will inherit this money
and my husband's relatives are not Christians and I don't want my
husband's 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 since I
know where I am going to. I know that I am going to be in the bossom 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 soundless voice and presence of my husband's
relatives around me always. I don't want them to know about this
development.
I await your quick response to this mail as this
is my last wish to see this funds transferred before my Death.
Please my beloved for further communication on how we are going to
conclude this, reach me on my private mail: marypackfund@yahoo.dk
Remain
Blessed
Your Sister in Christ,
Mrs. Mary Parker
