Subject: MY GOOD WILL
--
My name is Mrs. Mora William I am a dying woman who had decided to donate what I have to you.I am 50 years old and was diagnosed for cancer about 2 years ago, immediately after the death of my husband, who had left me everything he worked for.
I have been touched by God to donate from what I have inherited from my late husband to you for the good work of God, rather than allow my relatives to use my husband\\\'s hard earned funds ungodly. I have asked God to forgive me all my sins and I believe he has because He is a merciful God.I will be going in for an operation,and I pray that I
survive the operation.I have decided to WILL/donate the sum of $6,500,000(Six Million Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars)which is equivallent to £3,332,666(Three Million Three and Thirty Two Thousand Six Hundred and Sixty Six United Kingdom Pounds) to you for the good work of the lord, and to help the motherless.
My nurse name is Mrs. Mary Donald kindly contact her on
nursemary0147@gmail.com if you are interested in carrying out this task,so that she can arrange and tell you how the Funds will be release to you.
I know I have never met you but my mind tells me to do this, and I hope you act sincerely.
Yours sincerely,
Mrs. Mora William
