Subject: Greetings
Dearest in the Lord!
I am Mrs. Sarah Alghazali, from Iraq. I am married to Fahad Alghazali of blessed memory who worked with Iraq Foreign Mission in countries in Europe and Asia for nine years before he died in the year 2007. We were married for twenty - two years without a child he died after a brief illness. I am currently battling with both cancer and fibroid problems when my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of Six million, five hundred thousand dollars with an overseas finance firm. Presently, this money is still with finance firm.
Recently, my doctor told me that as a result of my terminal illness, I would not last for more than four months. Though what disturbs me most is my stroke sickness, having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to an individual with a good heart that will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct here in.
I want you to use this money in all sincerity to fund destitute homes, orphanages and widows. I took this decision because I don't have any child to start from and where I will stop and my husband's relatives are all over me and the money and I don't want my husband's hard earned money to be misused by this greedy people. I don't want a situation where this money will be misused hence my decision to take this bold decision. I know that after death I will be with God the most high and the most merciful one. I will give you the contact of my lawyer because he is the one who is going to assist you in making you the beneficiary of the fund in the finance firm.
I will now give him instruction to make you the beneficiary of the funds. I will also issue you a letter of authority through my lawyer that will prove you as the original beneficiary of the funds. I will be needing your prayers. I am hoping you will help me achieve my dream. Any delay in your reply will give me room in sourcing for another person for the same purpose. Kindly contact me at once through my personal email: sarahalghazali.mrs@gmail.com for more details.Until I hear from you my dreams will rest squarely on your shoulders, may the Almighty God continue to guide and protect you Amen.
Yours faithfully,
Mrs. Sarah Alghazali
