Mrs. Patricia White
17 Copse Hill, Wimbledon,
SW20 0NE, London,
United Kingdom.
My Dearest Beloved,
I am the above named person but now undergoing medical treatment in Barnes
Hospital, South Wople Way, SW14 8SU, London, England. I am married to Sir
Gerald White who worked with British Judicial Commission in Chelsea England
for over a decade before he died on 5th of July in the year 2005. We were
married for fifteen years without a child. He died after a brief illness
that lasted for two weeks. Before his death he made a vow to use his wealth
for the down trodden and the less privileged in the society. Since his death
I decided not to re-marry or get a child outside my matrimonial home.
When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of £4 Million (Four
Million Pounds sterling) with one Finance/Bank in Europe. Presently, this
money is still with the Bank. Recently, my Doctor told me that I would not
last for the next 4 months due to a rare form of cancer of the pancreas.
Though what disturbs me most is my stroke. Having known my condition I
decided to donate this fund to an individual or better still a God fearing
person who will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct herein.
Please accept to stand as the original beneficiary to my late husband to
enable us claim the money, the money will be transferred to your personal
bank account in your state city with the assistance of my private lawyer
whom will prepare all the required Legal Certificates. The money is meant
for the project for the less privileged and down trodden in our society,
please use this money for that purpose as it is my late husband's dying wish
and also 'God's plan'...
Please assure me that you will act according to my specification herein. You
are very lucky to have been chosen for this assignment, you will be greatly
rewarded. I will send you my pictures in my next e-mail and will also be
most glad if you can tell me a little about yourself.
Hoping to hear from you. Thank you and May the Almighty bless you.
You can contact me with your positive response on;

Yours Sincerely,
Mrs. Patricia white
