From: "Mrs. Linda Rhode" <info@lindarhode.com>
Date: Tue, 26 Jul 2005 09:34:41 +0000
Subject: SOLICITATION.
Dear Sir,
My name is Mrs. Linda Rhode a merchant in Dubai, in the U.A.E. I have been
diagnosed with Esophageal cancer and It has defied all forms of medical
treatment and right now I have only about a few months to live according to
medical experts in Hong Kong.Iam married to Engr.Peter Rhode who worked with
an
oil company in saudi Arabia 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
Christians. Since his death I decided not to re-marry or get a child outside
my
matrimonial home which the Bible is against it. When my late husband was
alive
he deposited the sum of $12.5Million (twelve Million,five hundred thousand
U.S.
Dollars) with a bank in Europe.
Presently, this money is still with a bank in Europe,so Having known my
condition I decided to donate this fund to churches,charitiable organisation
or
better still a christian individual that will utilize this money the way I
am
going to instruct here in. I want an individual that will use this to fund
churches,charitiable organisation and widows propagating the word of God and
to
ensure 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.I don’t want a situation where this
money will be used in an ungodly manner, hence the reason for taking this
bold
decision. I am not afraid of death hence I know where I am going. I know
that I
am going to be in the bossom of the Lord. Exodus 14 VS 14 says that the lord
will fight my case and I shall hold my peace.
As soon as I receive your reply I shall write a letter of authorization to
the
bank that will empower you as the original- beneficiary of this fund. I want
you to always pray for me because the lord is my shephard. My happiness is
that
I lived a life of a worthy Christian. Whosoever that wants to serve the Lord
must serve him in truth and spirit. Please always be prayerful all through
your
life. Any delay in your reply will give me room in sourcing for churches or
christian individual for this same purpose. you can reply me with this email
(info@lindarhode.com)Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I
stated
herein.
Hoping to hear from you.
Remain blessed in the name of the Lord,
Mrs.LINDA RHODE.
