Subject: RE .GREETING!!!
Greetings!!!,
I am Mrs Mary Adams, a widow to Late Sir, Martins Adams. I am
61 years old, I am suffering from a long time cancer of the breast and
From all indications, my condition is really getting worst on daily
basis and the cancer stage has gotten to a very severe stage that has
affected my hearing and one of my legs.
My late husband was killed
during the Gulf war, and during the period of our marriage we had no
son, My late husband was very wealthy and after his death, I inherited
all his wealth. My doctor told me that I may not live much more longer
and I am so scared about this.
So, I now decided to use my wealth in
contributing to the development of charity in Africa, America, Europe
or Asia . I selected you after my fervent prayers for this purpose, I
have
a total sum of $12.000,000.00 Million US Dollars Deposited in the
security bank and that is all i have and wish to give it to you as i
can no longer walk or hear well so that you can assist me in using it
for
the motherless babies and charity homes of your choice and i will like
you to take %25 from the fund for your family, may almighty god guide
and bless you and family.
Yours truly
Mrs. Mary Adams.
