Subject: CAN I TRUST YOU WITH THIS MONEY !!!!!!!!!!!!
Dear Beloved Friend,
My name is Mrs. Wilford Nancy. Naturally, this letter might come to you as a surprise, since we have not met before. It is by the Grace of God that this occurred, knowing the truth and the truth shall set me free.
Having known the truth, I had no choice than to do what is lawful and rightful in the sight of God for eternal life and in the sight of man for witness of God's mercy and glory upon my life. I have the pleasure to share my life briefly history with you and also prayed over it, God revealed to me that you are genuine hearted and can do this work.
I am the above named person from United Kingdom. I am married to Dr. Franklin Wilford who worked with Netherlands embassy in NIGERIA for nine years before his death on march 2004.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 committed to God. When my late husband was alive we deposited the sum of Ten million, five hundred thousand United states dollars(USD10.5 M) with A bank Here in Nigeria.
Altogether, I have decided to give arms to charity organizations, as I want this to be one of the last good deeds I do on earth. So far, I have distributed money to some charity organizations in the U.A.E, London and Ireland. Now that my health has deteriorated so badly, I cannot do this myself any more. Presently, this money is still with a bank in here in Nigeria and the management just wrote me as the wife of the depositor to come forward to receive the money or rather issue a letter of authorization to somebody to receive it on my behalf since I cannot do that now due to my health and illness.
Again, Im with a laptop in the hospital here where I have been undergoing treatment for cancer, which had indicated to my doctor that I would not last for the next four months according to his statement. So it is my last wish to see this money distributed to charity organizations, churches, Mosques because our relatives have plundered so much of our wealth after my husband's death and my illness got deteriorated.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 and utilize the above mentioned funds and its interest and Distribute it accordingly. Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to church's, mosques or individual that will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct herein. I want a person that is God fearing. Someone that will use this money on churches, reconstructions of mosque's orphanages etc propagating the word of God and to ensure that the house of God is maintained. God 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. My husband relatives are not God fearing and I don't want this hard earned money to be misused by unbelievers. I don't want a situation where this money will be used in an ungodly manner.
My happiness is that I lived a life of a worthy Child of God. So I am not afraid of death hence I know where I am going. I know that I am going to be in the bosom of God. God says that,the lord will fight my case and I shall hold my peace. Whoever that wants to serve the lord must serve him in spirit and truth. Please always be prayerful through out your life.
Please I don't need any telephone communication in this regard because of my health and the presence of my husband's relatives around me always. I don't want them to know about this development. Any delay in your reply will give me room in searching for an individual for this same purpose. Arrangements regarding this transaction have been concluded assure me that you will act accordingly as I stated herein. I want you to always pray for me.
Please kindly reply via my alternative email address at wilfordnancy@rediffmail.com
Hoping to hear from you soonest.
Yours sister in the lord,Mrs. Wilford Nancy
