My Dear,
I am.Rev Philip Agbo,78 years old, now resident in the
Porot-Novo.Formally of the CHURCH OF GOD MISSION.

Ever since,I have been helping the orphans in the orphanages,
motherless homes and less privileged across few African and asian countries.
I have donated some money to orphanages in Sudan, South
Africa,Cameroon, Mozambique and Liberia,philippines,myammar with the money I
inherited from my late father who was into diamond and crude oil business.
But, it is sad to let you know that I have been going through series of
illness from auditory (hearing), multiple sclerosis and from cancer of the
liver.
Before I got ill and relocated ,I have some money amounting to 15 million
two hundred thousand united states dollar (US$15,200,000,00) only with a
Financial institution.The fund is safe.
I have been using this institution for over twenty years now.
I had entrusted some money to a relation of mine to perform this duty,but
unfortunately he misused the funds,so i have decided to look for a foreigner
and a goodminded person.
I will be going to the hospital anytime for major operations. Except it
pleases God, the chance of my survival is slim. God has specifically told me
to help the less previledged people with my money.
Please I solicit for your help to receive the money, invest it profitably
and use it wisely for the less previledged people in your country.
If you willing to carry out this soul surviving mission you can get in touch
with me.
I will give you instructions on how the funds will be invested and
distributed among the orphanages and less previleged in return. The Lord has
already told me that I would find a trustworthy person who can carry out
this soul surviving transaction.
While I await your response, may God bless you and your family.
Thank you.
Rev Philip Agbo
