Subject: I NEED YOU AS BENEFICIARY TO THIS FUNDS..
Dear friend,
I am Madam Susan Cole,I was married to
Engineer Silas Cole an Englishman.My husband
was into private practice all his life before his
death.Our life together lasted for three decades
without child.My husband and I made a vow to
uplift the down-trodden and the less-
privileged individuals as he had passion for
persons who can not help themselves due to
physical disability or financial
Pedicament.When my husband was alive he
deposited the sum of $3 Million (THREE
MILLION US DOLLARS) with a bank in europe.
Presently,this money is still with the
bank.Recently, my Doctor told me that I have
limited time to live due to the cancerous
problems I am suffering from.I have decided to
donate this fund to you and want you to use it
to fund the Charitable work. As soon as I
receive your reply to assist me, I shall direct
you to the bank who will release the money to
you to start the charitable work, i will also issue
you a certificate of deposit that will empower
you as the original beneficiary of this
fund. Hope to hear from you soon.please send
all emails to my private email address below.
