Subject: from julian sierra you are my beneficiary
>From Mrs.Julián Aguilar Sierra
Hello my dear friend,
I got your contact from searching for a reliable and honest person that will
assist me safeguard fund .i divinely inspired to pick your name among other
names found after series of prayers/fasting for Gods direction. I am
Mrs.Julián Aguilar Sierra. person from Colombia undergoing medical
treatment.
I was married to Dr. Aguilar Sierra who worked with Malaysia embassy in
South Africa for nine years before he died in the year 2000.We were married
for twenty 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.When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of
$10.6 (Ten Million six hundred thousand U.S.Dollars)with one
finance/security
company in EUROPE.Presently,this money is still with the Security Company
.Recently,my Doctor told me that I have six months to live as I am
terminally
ill with cancer.Though what disturbs me most is my partial paralysis. Having
known my condition I decided to donate this fund to a church/mosque or
better
still a Christian/Moslem individual that will utilize this money the way I
am
going to instruct here in. I want a church/Mosque or individual that will
use this to fund churches/Mosque, orphanages and widows propagating the word
of God and to ensure that the house of God is maintained.They said 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's relatives are not Christians
and I don't want my husband's hard earned money to be mis-used by
unbelievers.I don't want a situation where this money will be used in an
ungodl 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 God.If you will be of
assistance,I will surely appreciate and reward you for your kindness in
rendering help to a dying woman.pls get back to me so that can give you
dirrectives on what to do
Julián Aguilar Sierra
