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 countrys christian guestbook which i have been with my
late huband and liked to visit once more if God will in his infinite
mercies.
I am Envangelist Mrs.Deborah Williams from London,I am 58 years old,i am
deaf and suffering from a long time cancer of the breast which also affected
my brain,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 was married to my late husband for twenty years without a child ,died
in a fatal motor accident Before his death we were true Christians.Since his
death I decided not to re-marry,I sold all my inherited belongings and
deposited all the sum of $8.5million dollars with a Security Company.
Presently, 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 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 where i come from. I want you God fearing, to also use this money to
fund churches, orphanages 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 the Security
Company.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 hearing from you soon.
Waiting for your reply.
Envangelist Mrs. Deborah William
