Greetings in the name of God
I am Mrs. Regina Robert, a widow to Late Anthony Robert who has
an appointment in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso as the chief managing
director to(Abbas Gold Mining Association Burkina-Faso West Africa)
under Engineering project/contract awarding section.
My husband died as a result of air plain crash in Burkina-Faso,
while he was coming back from Accra Ghana
on project inspection on Saturday 10 th December 2005, May his Soul Rest in Perfect Peace Amen.
I am 59 years old and new Christian convert, suffering from long time cancer of
the breast and liver failure. From all indications, my condition is really deteriorating and it is
quite obvious that I will not leave more than six months according to my doctor,
because the sickness is now at the critical stage.
During the period of our marriage we couldn't produce any child.
After the funeral of my beloved husband, his entire family pushed me
out from my matrimonial home and confiscated all my husband's prosperities
and bank accounts. The only inheritance I have from my husband now is a deposit
$7,200.000.00 American dollars (seven million two hundred thousand us dollars)
which he made in a bank which none of the family members knows nothing about it.
Since my life on this earth will not be long and no child to inherit this fund,
I decided to donate it to the kingdom of God for the survival of widows,
orphans and street children in your country. I know that
you will say why me after reading this message but I want you to understanding
that my contacting you in this donation of fund is not by my power as you can see that
none of us have seen each other before, rather contacting you is a divine
direction from God that knows the heart of all human beings that he created.
My dear, I want you to spend some time in communicating with our God, seek for
his face and ask him questions because he is your father. Remember that the Holy
Scripture has made us to understand that every obedient child has legal
authority to his father, so you have the chance to ask our God questions
concerning this notice from your sister Regina Robert whom you have never seen
before, I strongly believe that our good God will give you a clear revelations
over this service he has appointed you to handle for the survival of helpless
once around you. God said, I will strengthen and help you, I will uphold you
with my righteous right hand (Isaiah 41:10). Fear not because our good God is on
your side and will provide every material things for you in this service. I will
be looking forward to hear back from you so as to confirm your acceptance to
work for our living Almighty. God bless you.
I await to hear from you soonest
Yours beloved sister in Christ,
Mrs. Regina Robert
