Subject: A CRY FOR HELP
DEAR BELOVE ONE,
>From Ruth Jawad.
I am the above named person from United States . I am married to late James
lee Jawad of blessed memory who live in LONDON for the past twelve years
before he died in the year 2002. We 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 devoted Christians. Since his death I too have been
battling with both cancer and fibroid problem. When my late husband was
alive he deposited the sum of ($20.5Million U.S. Dollars only) with a
Financier Security Company here in West Africa Nigeria , Recently my doctor
told me that I would not last for the next three months due to cancer
problem. Though what disturbs me most is my stroke sickness. Having known my
condition I decided to donate this fund to either a charity organization,
devoted Christian individual or God fearing person that will utilize this
money the way I am going to instructs here in.
I want an , individuals or God-fearing persons to use this money with all
sincerity to fund churches, orphanages, widows and also propagating the word
of God miracle. The Word of God emphasizes so much on God benevolence and
this I took this decision because I don't have any child that will inherit
this money and my husband relatives are not God fearing and I don'†t want a
situation where this money will be used in an unholy manner. Hence the
reasons for taking this bold decision. I know that after death I will be
with God the most beneficent and most merciful. I don't need any telephone
communication in this regard because of my health, and all so, because of
the presence of my husbands relatives around always. I don't want them to
know about this development.
With God all things are possible. As soon as I receive your reply, I shall
give you the contact of the Finance Security Company in West Africa Nigeria
where the diplomatic consignment was deposited for safekeeping. I will also
issue an order of authority to the security company, authorizing them that
the said luggage have being willed to you and a copy of such authorization
will be forwarded to you. I want you and the believers / community where you
reside to always pray for me. My happiness is that I lived a true devoted
life worthy of emulation. Whosoever, that wants to serve God must serve him
in truth and fairness. Please always be prayerful all through your life. Any
delay in your reply will give room in sourcing for another person /
organization for this same purpose. You will have 20% out of the total
amount for all your time to carry out this dream and to cover whatever
expenditures to claim this money. Until I hear from you today unfailingly.,
my dream will rest squarely on your shoulders. May the Almighty God continue
to guide and protect us.
Best regards ,
Mrs Ruth jawad.
