Subject: I NEED YOUR ASSISTANCE!!!
My Dearest,
May God be praised!!!
I am Mrs. clara Edward,
I am married to Usman Edward of blessed memory who worked with Kuwait
embassy in Madrid Spain for nine years before he died in the year 2000. We
were married for eleven years without a child he died after a brief illness
that lasted only four days.Before his death he was a verydevoted Muslim and
I was a devoted Christian by birth battling with both cancer and fibroid
problems when my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of $9.9million
dollars (NINE MILLION NINE HUNDRED
THOUSAND DOLLARS) with a bank in Africa.
Presently, this money is still with the Bank and Recently, my doctor told me
that I had a terminal illness (cancer) that would last for the next four
months. Though what disturbs me most is my stroke sickness, having known my
condition I decided to donate this fund to either a christian or muslim
organization or individual that will utilize this money the way I am going
to instruct here in. I want this organization or individual to use this
money in all sincerity to fund churches,mosques,Orphanages, widows and also
propagating the word of God and to ensure that the society upholds the views
and beliefs of the holy book The holy book emphasized so much on the giving
of alms, charity and this has encouraged me in taking this bold step.
I took this decision because I don't have any child and I don't want my
husband hard earned money to be misused by people that call me an
unbeliever. I don't want a situation where this money will be used in an
unholy manner hence the reason for taking this bold decision. I know that
after death I will be with God the most high and the most merciful one.I
don't need any telephone communications but will only give you the contact
of my lawyer Barr.Gregory Thomas, because he is the one who is going to
assist you in making you the beneficiary of the consignment in the finance
and security firm.With God.I know that all thing are possible and as soon as
I receive your reply through my lawyer I will now give him instruction to
make you the beneficiary of he consignment and all necessary steps to take
before receiving these funds and I shall also give you the contact of the
bank I will also issue you a letter of authority that ill prove you as the
original beneficiary of the funds.I want you and the community where you
reside to always pray for me.
My happiness is that I lived a life of a true devoted person though married
to a Muslim, whoever that wants to serve God must serve him in truth and in
spirit, please always be prayerful all through your life. Any delay in your
reply will give me room in sourcing for another person organization or a
devoted person for the same purpose.Until I hear from you my dreams will
Rest squarely on your shoulders,may the Almighty God continue to guide and
protect you. Amen.I will be waiting for your response on
clara_edward2007@yahoo.com
Yours faithfully,
Mrs clara Edward
