*I am Mrs Gloria Hans*
* *
*I was married to Dr. Van Hans, who worked with Chevron Texaco Kuwait for
twenty years before he died in the year 2004, May be you must have heard
about him in the oil firm.We were married for thirty-seven years without a
child. He died during one of the war in Iran . 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 the sum
of (Five Million U.S.Dollars) with Security company in South Africa
Presently, this money is still with the Security company 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 can not 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
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 the proceed at the
end of every year distributed among charity organization.*
* *
*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 giveth. I took this decision because I know that
there are a lot of poor people suffering from different kind of disease and
nobody to come to their aid.*

*With God all things are possible. As soon as I receive your reply I shall
give you the contact of the bank. I will also issue you a letter of

you will act accordingly as I stated herein.*

me. Please do all things possible to make my wish come through*
