Dearest beloved one,
I am Mrs. Evangeline Wells, a citizen of United Kingdom, a widow to late
Frederick wells. I am 61 years old, suffering from long time cancer of the
breast, from all indication my conditions is really deteriorating and it is
quite obvious that I would not live more than three months, according to my
doctor and from all indication regarding to my medical analysis, the cancer
stage has gotten to a very bad stage after the series of breast surgery
conducted by the specialist .all the efforts made to put a resuscitative
measure was to no avail, my doctors confirmed that my tendency of lasting
long is not Transparent.
My late husband was killed during the U.s. raid against terrorism in
Afghanistan, and during the period of our marriage we could not give birth
to any child. My late husband was very wealthy and after his death, I
inherited all his assets.
Following to my present condition, the doctors have advised me that since I
do not have an Alternative, that I should better now decide what I will do
with my late husband's proceeds so I now decided to share some part of this
proceeds, to contribute to the development of charity in America, Africa,
Asia and Europe especially to create solution to the problem of the less
privileged and orphanages.
I am willing to donate the sum of $4,500.000.00 us dollars, to the less
privileged. Please i want you to note that this fund is lying in a security
finance firm, and upon my instruction, will file in an application for the
release of the fund in your name.
Lastly, I honestly pray that this money when released will be used for the
said purpose even though I may be late then, because I have come to find out
that wealth acquisition without goodwill to humanity is vanity and I made
the promise to myself that the fund will be used for a better tomorrow.
If you are willing, You are required to send the following informations
below.
(1) Your complete contact address
(2)Your full name
