Subject: Dear Beloved in Christ,
Dear Beloved in Christ,
It is by the grace of God that I received Christ, knowing the truth
and the truth has set me free. Having known the truth, I had no choice
than to do what is lawful and right in the sight of God for eternal
life and in the sight of man for witness of Gods mercy and glory upon
my life.
I am Mrs Zenab Malik.I am married to Engr. Nirvana Malik who worked
with Chevron/Texaco in London for twenty years before he died in the
year 2004.We were married for twenty-seven years without a child. He
was held hostage and slain to death by protesting youths of the
region. Before his death we were both born again Christians. Since his
death I decided not to re-marry.
When my late husband was alive he deposited $25million usd with a
bank. Presently, this money is still with the bank and the management
just wrote me as the beneficiary to come forward to receive the money
or rather issue a letter of authorization to somebody to receive it on
my behalf if I cannot come over.
Presently, I'm with my laptop in a hospital where I have been
undergoing treatment for cancer of the lungs. I have since lost my
ability to talk and hear well and my doctors have told me that I have
only a few months to live. It is my last wish to see that this money
is invested and at the end of every year distributed among charity
organization, churches and orphanage home. I want a person that is God
fearing that will use this money to fund churches, orphanages and
widows propagating the word of God and to ensure that the house of God
is maintained. The Bible made us to understand that blessed is the
hand that grivet. I took this decision because I know that there are
allot of poor people suffering from different kind of disease and
nobody to come to their aid. With God all things are possible. I also
took this decision because I don't have any child that will inherit
this money and I don't want my husbands Hard-earned money to be
misused.
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 course and I shall Hold my peace If you know
truthfully that you can do exactly what i wish to use this money to
do, Please write me back with your full name and phone number.
I want somebody that will use this fund for the service of God and
humanity.If you can honestly, do this that I request, I will be glad
to hand you over the said $25million usd . I hope to hear from you.
