Subject: Dear Friend,
Dear Friend,
Greetings to you in the most wonderful name of our Lord and Savior Jesus
Christ.His richest blessings shall be upon you forever.
I am Mrs. Susan Anderson, I am 51 years old fromNetherlands,i am deaf and
uffering from a long time cancer of the Lungs which also affected my
brain,from all indication my conditions is really deteriorating and it is
quite obvious that, accordingto my doctors they have advised me that i may
not live for the next two months,this is because the cancer stage has gotten
to avery bad stage.
I was brought up from a motherless babies home, was married to my late
husband for twenty years without a child. My husband died in a fatal motor
accident.Before his death we were true Christians. Since his death I decided
not to re-marry,I sold all my inherited belongings and deposited all the sum
of $18.5million dollars with a Security Company.
Presently, this money is still with them and the management just wrote me as
the true owner to come forward to receive the money for keepin t so long or
rather issue a letter of authorization to somebody to receive it on my
behalf since I can not come over because of my illness or they get it
confisticated.Presently, I'm with my laptop in a hospital where I have been
undergoing treatment for cancer of the lungs.
I have since lost my ability to talk and my doctors have told me that I have
only a few months to live. It is my last wish to see that this money is
invested to any organisation of your choice and distributed each year among
the charity organization,the poor and the motherless babies home where i
come from.I want you God fearing, to also use this money to fund
churches,orphanages and widows.
I took this decision, before i rest in peace because my time will soon be
up.
As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the Security
Company. I will also issue you a letter of authority that will prove you as
the new beneficiary of my fund.
Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I stated herein. I shall
wait at your prayerful reply.
Thanking you in His precious name.
Yours in His Service,
Mrs. Susan Anderson.
