Beloved friend,
I am Mrs. Sherry Buoy-Jaunther from Holland . I am married to Harry
Jaunther a US citizen who worked and own business in Asia for over twenty
Years before he died in the tsunami disasters, we were married but without
Any children and presently I am 70 Years old.When my late husband was Alive
he deposited the sum of $9.5M. (Nine Million Five Hundred Thousand
U.S.Dollars) with a Security Company.
Am presently in a hospital where I have been undergoing treatment Cancer of
the lungs, I want you to use 70%of this money to fund charity, orphanages
and widows around the world but in my name Mrs. Sherry Jaunther. Reserve
10% goes to the family of our late made who also lost her life together in
that evil tsunami.
Since life in becoming on unbearable, I have no other option than to do this
in thanks giving to the lord God for every thing he say that we should give
him thanks. There is no reason to keep hold of the fund when I know that I
have no chance of enjoying it here on earth.
As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the details and the
information of the Security Company.
God Bless You!
Mother Sherry Buoy
