From: "M E Fernandez" <mefrrnndz@telegraf.by>
Date: Fri, 23 May 2008 00:43:29 +0200
Subject: GREETINGS!
*GREETINGS!*
*From Mrs Maria Elena Fernandez*,
I am the above named person from Philippine. I am married to Mr. Rodolfo
FERNANDEZ who worked with Philippine embassy in Kuwait for nine years before
we left to Philippine where he was re-appointed as a navy officer before his
untimely death in the year 2005.
We were married for eleven years without a child. He died in his home
country Philippine after a brief illness that lasted for only four days
Before his death we were both born again Christian. Since his death I
decided not to remarry or get a child outside my matrimonial home which the
Bible is against. When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of
$7.3Musd (Seven Million Three Hundred Thousand U.S. Dollars) in cash
concealed in a trunk box and deposits it with a* Security Company* in *Abidjan
Cote d'ivoire (West Africa) *which he declare and register it as family
valuables.
Recently, my Doctor told me that i have serious sickness which is cancer
problem. The one that disturbs me most is the high blood preasure sickness.
Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to a church or
individual that will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct
herein. I want a church or individual that will use this fund for *orphanages,
widows,propagating the word of God and to endeavor that the house of God is
maintained*. The Bible made us to understand that "*Blessed is the hand that
giveth"* I took this decision because I don't have any child that will
inherit this money and my husband relatives are not Christians and I don't
want my husband's efforts to be used by unbelievers. This is why I am taking
this decision to contact you.
I am 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 case and I shall hold my peace*". I don't need any telephone
communication for security purpose until this mission is accomplished.
With God all things are possible. As soon as I receive your reply with full
assurance of your assistance, I shall give you the legal proof of this
matter and contact of the security company here in Abidjan where he
deposited the trunk box. I will also issue you an authority letter that will
prove you the present and legal beneficiary of this trunk box(fund). I want
you and the church to always pray for me because the lord is my shephard. My
happiness is that I lived a life of a worthy Christian. *Whoever that Wants
to serve the Lord must serve him in Spirit and Truth. **
*
Hoping to receive your reply.
Remain blessed in the Lord.
Yours in Christ,
*Mrs Maria Elena Fernandez*
