ABOUT MY WILL
Dear Friend, Please do reply me in my private box: rubyeustaquio63@yahoo.fr Greetings in the name of God,Pls let 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's guestbook. I am Mrs.Ruby Eustaquio from London and presently in London where I
am hospitalized for now because i work here ,I amsuffering from a long time cancer of the breast ,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 and was married to my
late husband for twenty years without a child ,my husband was working
in a mobile company in Saudi Arabia before he won a contract with
the shell company of Nigeria and died in a fatal motor accident. Since his death I decided not to re-marry,I sold all my inheritedbelongings and deposited all the sum of 10 million dollars with aIntercontinental Bank Plc. Presently,I am in London and 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 where I have beenundergoing treatment for the cancer in London. I have sincelost 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 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 fundorphanages and widows,I took this decision, before i rest in peace
because my time will soon be up. As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of theIntercontinental Bank Plc.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.Hoping to hear from you soon. Waiting for your reply.
