Dearest Beloved ,
Greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, I am Brent Luwis a citizen
of the Republic
of Netherlands but presently in Nigeria working For the Federal Government,
I am 50 Years
Old, I am now a new Christian overt, Suffering from long time cancer of the
Heart, From all
Indication my condition is really deteriorating and it is quite obvious that
I wont live
more than 1 year, according to my doctors, This is because the cancer stage
has gotten to a
very bad stage.
My Late wife died last Five Years and during the period of our marriage we
couldn't produce
any child .My Late wife was very wealthy and after her death ,I inherited
all her business
and wealth.
The Doctors has advised me that I may not live for more than 1 Year so I
now decided to
divide the part of this wealth to contribute to the development of the
Church in Africa,Asia
and Europe.
I selected you after visiting the website and I prayed over it.
I am willing to donate the sum of $25,000.000.00U.US( TWENTY FIVE MILLION
UNITED STATES
DOLLARS) to the less privileged,Please I want you to note that the fund
is lying in a
security company in Nigeria.Once I hear from you ,I will forward to you all
the informations
you will use to get her fund released from the security company and to be
transferred to
your account.
I honestly pray that this money when transferred to your account will be
sure for the said
purpose because I have come to find out that wealth acquisition without
Christ is
vanity,May the grace of our Lord Jesus the love of God and the fellowship of
God be with you
and your family.
Please provide me with the following informations so that I can forward it
to my late wife's
lawyer who is going to handle the transaction with you and lead,advice you
