Subject: Please read carefully
Dearly Beloved,
This mail is from me, Mr. Graham Miles, given my current state of health, I
have decided to donate what I have to you, I am 69 years old and I was
diagnosed for cancer about two years ago, immediately after the death of my
wife, Who had worked with me tirelessly until we were driven out of Zimbabwe
and our farms seized. I have been touched to donate from what I have
inherited from my late wife estate to you for the good work and support
since we never had any children, rather than allow my wife's relatives to
use our hard earned funds ungodly. Please pray that the good Lord forgive me
my sins. I have asked God to forgive me and I believe he has because He is a
merciful God.
I will be going in for an operation tomorrow morning. I decided to
WILL/donate the sum of US$15,750,000(Fifteen million Seven Hundred and fifty
thousand United States Dollars) to you for the good work and expect you will
help support the motherless and less privilege and also for the assistance
of the widows.
At the moment I cannot take any telephone calls right now due to my
deteriorating health condition. I have adjusted my WILL and my Executor is
aware I have changed my will; both of you will arrange for the change of
ownership of the funds and transfer of funds to you. The funds deposited
with a finance outfit and the name is withheld basically for security and
confidential purposes and would only be released to the beneficiary (you).
I wish you all the best and may the good Lord bless you abundantly, and
please use the funds well and always extend the good work to others.
Contact my Executor:
Richard Gray,
Gray and Associates, Plymouth-United Kingdom.
Email: richgray@myway.com or richjgray@lawyer.com
You are to contact him with your full names contact telephone/fax number and
your full address and tell him that I have WILLED US$15,750,000(Fifteen
million Seven Hundred and fifty thousand United States Dollars) to you that
I have known you for some years before now as I rightly introduced you to
him, and I have also notified him that I am WILLING that amount to you as my
friend for a specific good work. Have no worries about how I got your
contact details, I have been directed to do this from heart because I go
where ever my mind sends me….trust me, I am harmless.
Thanks and God bless.
Regards,
Graham Miles
