Dear Sir/Madam,
Greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ and all the best in your
new year, I am former Mrs.Daquayza Lamy, now Mrs. Mary Lamy. A widow to
Late Aban Mohammed Lamy, I am 72years old; I am now a new Christian
convert,suffering from long time cancer of the breast. From all
indications my condition is really deteriorating and it's quite obvious
that I won't live more than four months according to my doctors.
This is because the cancer satage has gotten to a very bad stage. My
late husband was killed during the U.S raid against terrorism in
Afghanistan, and during the period of our marriage we couldn't produce
any child. My late husband was very wealthy and after his death, I
inherited all his business and wealth.
The doctor has advised me that I may not live for more than four
months, so I now decided to divide part of this wealth, to contribute
to the development of the church,orphans and motherless babies in Africa,
America, Asia and Europe.
I selected you after visiting the information and I prayed over it, I
am willing to donate the sum of US$20,200,000.00 (Twenty Million two
hundred thousand Dollars), to you for the less privileged. Please I
want you to note that,this fund is lying in a security finance firm and upon
my instruction, you will file in an application for the transfer of the
money in your name.
Lastly, I honestly pray that this money when transferred will be used
for the said purpose, because I have come to find out that wealth
acquisition without Christ is vanity upon vanity. May the Grace of our
Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be
with you and your family.
I Await your Urgent Reply.

Yours in Christ.
Mrs. Mary Lamy.
