Subject: FROM FATIMA TO YOU BELOVED IN CHRIST
Dear Beloved in Christ,
Please bring out time and read this email. It is by thegrace of God that I received Christ,knowing the truth andthe truth has set me free. Having known the truth, I had nochoice than to do what is lawful and right in the sight ofGod for eternal life and in the sight of man for witness ofGods mercy and glory upon my life. I am MrsFATIMA ABBAH .Iam married to Engr. Malik ABBAH who worked withChevron/Texaco in London for twenty years before he died inthe year 2004.We were married for twenty-seven years withouta child. He was held hostage and slain to death byprotesting youths of the region. Before his death we wereboth born again christians. Since his death I decided not tore-marry.
When my late husband was alive he deposited $22 million usdwith a security company (bank). Presently, this money isstill with the bank and the management just wrote me as thebeneficiary to come forward to receive the money or ratherissue a letter of authorisation to somebody to receive it onmy behalf if I can not come over. Presently, I`m with mylaptop in a hospital where I have been undergoing treatmentfor cancer of the lungs. I have since lost my ability totalk and hear well and my doctors have told me that I haveonly a few months to live.It is my last wish to see thatthis money is invested and at the end of every yeardistributed among charity organisation,churches andorphanage home.
I want a person that is God fearing that will use this moneyto fund churches, orphanages and widows propagating the wordof God and to ensure that the house of God is maintained.The Bible made us to understand that Blessed is the handthat giveth. I took this decision because i know that thereare alot of poor people suffering from different kind ofdisease and nobody to come to their aid. With God all thingsare possible. I also took this decision because I don`t haveany child That will inherit this money and I don`t Want myhusbands Hard-earned money to be misused by unbelievers. Iam not afraid of Death hence I know where I am Going.I know that I Am Going to be in the bosom of the Lord.Exodus 14 VS 14 Says that the Lord will fight my course andI shall Hold my peace If you know truthfully that you can doexactly what i wish to use this money to do,Please write meback with your full name and phone number. I want somebodythat will use this fund for the service of God and humanity.If you can honestly,do this that i request,I will be glad tohand you over the said $22millionusd. I hope to hear fromyou.
Remain BlessedMRS FATIMA ABBAH
