Subject: Calvary Greetings in the Name of our lord Jesus Christ
Beloved in christ, Calvary Greetings in the Name of our lord Jesus Christ, I have been briefed to contact you because of passion for humanity and sympathy for people with just causes.I am Mr lee wood, 67 years old, I gave my life to Christ and became a born again Christian I am now a new Christian convert,suffering from long time cancer of the longs.
From all indications my condition is really deteriorating and it is quite obvious that I won’t live more than six months It has defiled all forms of medical treatment, and right now I have only about a few months to live, according to medical experts.I have not particularly lived my life so well, as I never really cared for anything but my business.Though I am very rich, But now I regret all this as I now knowthat there is more to life than just wanting to have or make all the money in the world. I believe when God gives me a second chance to come to this world I would live my life a different way from how I have lived it.This is because the cancer stage has gotten to a very bad stage. My late wife and only son was a Vitim of the last year Bellview Airlines flight crash Which All 117 passengers and crew of the airliner died, and during the period of our marriage we could only produce one child john that died along wiht my wife,may they soul restin pace.
I now decided to divide part of this wealth, to distribute to the development of the churches and orphanage in Africa,America,Asia,Europe,Arabs countries.I have willed and given most of my property and assets to my immediate and extended family members as well as few close friends.
I want God to be merciful to me and accept my soul so, I have decided to give alms to charity organizations and those in Need, as I want this to be one of the last good deeds I do on earth So far, Now that my health has deteriorated so badly, I cannot do this myself anymore. I once asked members of my family to close one of my accounts and distribute the money which I have there to charity organization and churches they refused and kept the money to themselves.
Hence, I do not trust them anymore, as they seem not to be contended with what I have left for them. The last of my money which only my Attorney knows of is the huge cash deposit of Five Million United States Dollars ($5 000, 000.00) that I have with an Asset Management / Vaulting Company Abroad. I will want you to help me collect this deposit. I am willing! to donate this 5 million U.S dollars to you for the less privilege and for practical Christian service and concern.
And upon my instruction, my attorney, who presently is in Accra Ghana distributingrelief materials to victims and an application for the Transfer of the money in your name. Lastly, I honestly pray that this money when it get to your hand will be used for the said purpose,So if you know that you will use this fund honestly for things that will glorify God's name and purpose of God's work, then do urgently contact me back and the details will be given toyou on how you will be able to receive the fund.
NOTE : My last desire is to make sure that this money is used for Gods work.I wil also plead with you as a son of God to use this money honestly and wisely to propagate the work of God when it gets to you.
Because I have come to find out that wealth acquisition without Christ is vanity upon vanity.May God bless you and grant you wisdom to act according to the very guidance of the Holy Spirit With all the Blessings,May the grace of our lord Jesus Christ, the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit Be With
you and your family Amen.
I await your urgent reply.Yours in Christ,
Mr.Lee Wood.
