Dear Good Friend
Greetings in the name of God,Pls laet this not sound strange to you for my
only surviving lawyer who would have done this died early this year.i prayed
and got your email id from your country guestbook.
I am Mrs.Joy Mary from Netherland,I am 58 years old,i am suffering from a
long time cancer of the breast which also affected my brain,from all
indication my conditions is really deteriorating and it is quite obvious
that, according to my doctors they have advised me that i may not live for
the next two months,this is because the cancer stage has gotten to a very
bad stage. I was brought up from a motherless babies home was married to my
late husband for twenty years without a child,my husband died in a fatal
motor accident Before his death we were true believers.Since his death I
decided not to re-marry,I sold all my inherited belongings and deposited all
the sum of 10million dollars with a Oceanic Bank .Presently, this money is
still with them and the management just wrote me as the true owner to come
forward to receive the money for keeping it so long or rather issue a letter
of authorization to somebody to receive it on my behalf since I can not
come over because of my illness or they get it confisticated.
Presently, I'm with my laptop in a hospital here in Switzerland), where I
have been undergoing treatment for cancer of the lungs. 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 to any organisation of your choice and distributed
each year among the charity organization,the poor and the motherless babies
home. I want you as God fearing person, to also use this money to fund
church,mosque, orphanages and widows,I took this decision, before i rest in
peace because my time will so on be up.
As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the Oceanic
Bank.I will also issue you a letter of authority that will prove you as the
new beneficiary of my fund. Please assure me that you will act accordingly
as I stated herein.
