Subject: GET TO HIM AS SOON AS POSIBLE.
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am former Mrs. Munirat Ibrahim, Since i gave my life to christ, now I am
Mrs.Joan Ibrahim widow to Late Dr mohamed Ibrahim.
I am an old woman; suffering from cancer. From all indications, my condition
is really deteriorating and is quite obvious that I may not live long,
because the cancer stage has gotten to a very severe stage. My late husband
died in an air crash on the 31st October 1999 in an Egyptian airline Boeing
990 with other passengers on board. You can confirm this fact from the
website which was aired by the BBC
WORLDNEWS:(http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/502503.stm) and my only
daughter died in BOMB ATTACK LONDON.
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
so long and I am so scared about this. So, I now decided to divide part of
this wealth, by contributing to the well being of less privileged people and
handicapped in the society of world America, Canada, Africa,Europe and Asian
Countries.
This mission, who will no doubt be tasking had made me to recently relocate
to Africa where I live presently. I selected you for this Purpose and prayed
over it, I am willing to donate the sum of $7,300,000.00 Million US Dollars
to you for the development of the well being of handicapped in the society
and also as aids for the less privileged around your country, and i have map
out $1,700.000.00 for your own personal use to help me for this work.
Please note that, this fund is lying in a Security Bank. Therefore immediate
application for the transfer of the money in your name or home.Please, do
not reply me if you have the intention of using this fund for personal use,
than enhancement of the comfort of the Handicapped.
Lastly, I want you/your home 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 God one's life is vanity upon vanity.
If you are willing to assist i will want you to contact my family Attorney
Mr Harrinson Clerk on his Email: harrinson_clerk@yahoo.co.uk for futher
inquiry.
I await your reply,
Mrs Joan Ibrahim.
