FROM:Mrs. Theresa John.
ATTENTION:Sir/Madam
I am the above named person from Liberia. I am married to Mr. Cletus John
who worked with Liberian embassy in Lome-Togo for nine years before he died
in the year 2000.We were married for eleven years without a child. He died
after a brief illness that lasted for only four days.
Before his death we were both born again Christian. Since his death I decided
not to remarry or get a child outside my matrimonial home which the Bible
is against. When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of $6.8Million
(Six Million Eight hundred thousand U.S. Dollars) with one security company
in Europe. Presently, this money is still with the Security Company. Recently,
my Doctor told me that I would not last for the next Eight months due to
cancer problem. The one that disturbs me most is my stroke sickness. Having
known my condition I decided to keep this fund in Europe.
I want an organization or an individual that will use this fund for orphanages,
widows, propagating the word of God and to endeavor that the house of God
is maintained. The Bible made us to understand that Blessed is the hand
that giveth. I took this decision because I don't have any child that will
inherit this money and my husband relatives are not Christians and I don't
want my husbands efforts to be used by unbelievers.
I don't want a situation where this money will be used in an ungodly way.This
is why I am taking this decision. I am not afraid of death hence I now where
I am going. I know that I am going to be in the bosom of the Lord.
Exodus 14 VS 14 says that the lord will fight my case and I shall hold my
peace. I don't need any telephone communication in this regard because of
my health hence 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 on my email address I shall inform the security
company in Europe that you are the beneficiary of the said consignment you
will need to go and claim this fund in Europe. I will also issue you an
authority letter that will prove you the present beneficiary of this fund.
I want you and the organization to always pray for me because the lord is
my shepherd. My happiness is that I lived a life of a worthy Christian.
Whoever that wants to serve the Lord must serve him in spirit and truth.
Please always be prayerful all through your life.
I'll prefere you to mail me back on(theresamjohn@katamail.com)
Yours in Christ,
MRS. THERESA JOHN.
