Subject: Dear beloved,
Dear beloved,
I am Mrs kate charles from Scotland, I am 58 years old, i am a deaf and
suffering from a long time cancer of the breast which also affected my
brain. By all indication my condition is really deteriorating, and my
doctors have courageously advised me that i may not live beyond the next two
months, this is because the cancer stage has reached a critical stage. I was
brought up in a motherless babies home, and was married to my late husband
for twenty years without a child. My husband and i are true christians, but
quite unfortunately, he died in a fatal motor accident.
Since his death I decided not to re-marry,I sold all my inherited belongings
and deposited all the sum of $31.5million dollars with a Bank. Presently,
this money is still in their custody, and the management just wrote me as
the true owner to come forward to receive the money after
keeping it for so long or rather issue a letter of authorization to somebody
to receive it on my behalf since I can not come over as a result of my
illness, or they get it confisticated.Presently, I'm with my laptop in a
hospital where I have been undergoing treatment. 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 in 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 good humanitarian, to also use this money to fund churches,
orphanages and widows around .I must let you know that
this was a very hard decision, but i had to take a bold step towards this
issue, and i hope you will help see my last wishes come true.
As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the
Bank. I will also issue you a letter of authority which will prove that you
are the new beneficiary
of my funds. Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I stated
herein. Hope to hear from you soonest.
Awaiting your reply
Yours in Christ,
Mrs. kate charles
