Hello
I am Salima Amin from Abidjan Ivory Coast. I am married to Late Abeed Amin of blessed memory who is an oil explorer in Libya and Kuwait for twelve years before he died in the year 2007.We were married for twelve years without a child. He died after a brief illness that lasted for only four days. Before his death we were both devoted to charitable work. Since his death I too have been battling with both Cancer and fibroid problems. When my late Husband was alive he deposited the sum of $10.million (Ten Million U.S Dollars) with a Security Finance Company. Recently, my doctor told me that I have only six months to live due to cancer problem. Though what disturbs me most is my stroke sickness. Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to either an organization or devoted individual that will utilize this money the way I am going to instructs herein. I want this person to use this money in all sincerity to fund a charitable foundation for orphanages, widows, motherless children and also propagating the word of peace in the society The Holy book emphasizes so much on God benevolence and this has encourage me to take the bold step. I took this decision because I don't have any child that will inherit this money and my husband relatives killed my husband so I don't want a situation where this money will be used in an unholy manner. Hence the reasons for this bold decision. I know that after death I will be with God the most beneficent and the most merciful. I don't need any telephone communication in this regard because of my health, because of the presence of my husband's relatives around me always. I don't want them to know about this development. With God all things are possible. As soon as I receive your reply, I shall give you the contact information of the Security Finance Company where the money was deposited. I will also issue a letter of authority to the Security Finance Company authorizing them that the said fund Have being willed to you and a copy of such authorization will be forwarded to you. I want you to always pray for me for I am in great pain. My happiness is that I lived a true devoted worthy of emulation. Whoever that wants to serve God must serve him in truth and in fairness. Please always be prayerful all through your life. Any delay in your reply will give room in sourcing for another devoted person for this same purpose. Until I hear from you, my dreams will rest squarely on your shoulders. May God continue to guide and protect you.
Regards.
Mrs. SALIMA AMIN.
