From: LADY ROBERTS <bent_um_state@live.com>
Date: Thu, 21 Aug 2008 06:15:44 -0400
Subject: UNTO YOU I ENTRUST!
From: Lady Daizy Roberts
52 Oxford Street,
England.
Here writes Lady Daizy Roberts, I am widow of late Sir Richard Roberts an Englishman . My husband was into private practice all his life before his death. Our life together as man and wife lasted for three decades without child.
My husband and I made a vow to uplift the down-trodden and the less-privileged individuals as he had passion for persons who can not help themselves due to physical disability or financial predicament. I can adduce this to the fact that he needed a Child from this relationship,which never came.
When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of 2 Million (two Million Great Britain Pounds Sterling,which were derived from his vast estates and investment in capital market) with his bank here in UK. Presently, this money is still in the Bank.
Recently, my Doctor told me that I have limited time to live due to the cancerous problems I am suffering from. And I have decided to donate this fund to you and want you to use this gift which comes from my husbands effort to fund the upkeep of widows, orphans, destitute, the physically challenged children, and persons who prove to be genuinely handicapped financially.
I took this decision because I do not have any child that will inherit this money and my husband relatives are bourgeois and very wealthy persons . I do not want my husband's hard earned money to be misused or invested into ill perceived ventures. I do not need any telephone communication in this regard due to my deteriorating health and because of the presence of my husband's relatives around me. I do not want them to know about this development.
As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the bank in UK. I will also give you a Letter of Authority which will be prepared by my attorney this will empower you as the original beneficiary of this fund. My happiness is that I lived a life worthy of emulation. Please assure me that you will act just as I have stated herein. Hope to hear from you soon.
