Subject: I KNOW I DON'T KNOW YOU BUT I HAVE BEEN DIRECTED TO DO THIS.
Dearest in the lord,My name is Mrs. Jennifer brown; I am a dying woman who have decided to donate what I have to you and also for the good work of God. I am 63 years old and I was diagnosed for cancer for about 9 years ago, immediately after the death of my husband, who has left me everything he worked for. I have been touched by God to donate from what I have inherited from my late husband to you for the good work of God, rather than allow my relatives to use my husbands hard earned funds ungodly. Please pray that the good Lord forgive me my sins. I have asked God to forgive me and believe he has because He is a merciful God. I will be going in for an operation in less than two hours.I decided to WILL/donate the sum of $8,700,000.00(Eight million seven hundred thousand dollars) to you for the good work of the lord, and also to help the motherless and less privilege and also for the assistance of the widows. At the moment I cannot take any telephone calls right now due to the fact that my relatives are around me and my health status. I have adjusted my WILL and my lawyer is aware I have changed my will to you and he will arrange and transfer the funds from my account to you. I wish you all the best and may the good Lord bless you abundantly, and please use the funds well and always extend the good work to others.Contact my lawyer with this specified email: Barrister Victor Carter.(barrvictor_primechambers@yahoo.co.uk) and tell him that I have WILLED ($8,700,000.00) to you by quoting my personal reference number Law/chamber/je/nd/WILL/TT453276542/Jrrr/086. And I have also notified him that I am WILLING that amount to you for a specific and good work.I know I don't know you but I have been directed to do this. How I got your contact is by divine directives from God, so you have nothing to worry about. I prayed and thought about this before deciding to WILL this fund to you. Am also doing this because I dont really think I will be able to make it after the surgical operation. So once again, dont disappoint me because if you do, then you disappoint God. This is my dying wish.Thanks and God bless.Regards,Mrs. Jennifer Brown.
