Dear Beloved in Christ,
It is with Heavy Heart i am reaching you regarding the death of my late
client.
I am Edmond Harcourt White, the legal adviser to late MR. MIKE &
CAROL HALL, a very Wealthy Couple that lived here in the United
Kingdom, before their recent Death on the 26th of December during the
Tsunami disaster last year (2004).
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/bristol/4153821.stm) these couple
served God as very dedicated Christians, they so dedicated their life
to God but they had no child till they died. They acquired a lot of
landed properties like lands, Stocks/Bond, house properties, etc. As
their legal adviser, before their death,the husband Mr. Mike & Carol
Hallinstructed me to write his WILL because they had no child, they
dedicated their wealthto God.
According to the WILL, their assets should be given out to a ministry
for the work of God. As their legal adviser, all the documents for the
assets that are deposited with the bank are in my care. He
gave me the authority to give out the funds to the Ministries for the
work of God.
As instructed by MR.MIKE HALL before his death. As a matter of fact the
total amount of money is US$10,000,000.00,.
As a born again Christian, I have been reading my bible and I have to
do what is lawful and right in the sight of God by giving out the fund
to the chosen ministry for the purpose of God's work as instructed by
the owner before his death. After my fasting and prayers Today, I asked
God to make his choice and direct me to an honest Christian or the
chosen ministry that deserves this fund by his Grace.
I then came across your address on the Internet as I was browsing.
I appeal to you for the fund to be usedwisely for things that will glorify
the name of God.
I have just notified the bank that the next of kin is ready for the funds to
be transfered
to his/her account, and the bank is awaiting my authority to transfer the
funds out to your account.
Dear child of Zion, if you know that you will use this fund honestly
and wisely for things that will glorify God's name, then do contact me
with the above mentioned information via (edmondharcourtwhite@yahoo.co.uk)
Your prompt response will be highly appreciated; Do send me your
contact telephone number so that I can reach you on telephone.
In His Services,
Edmond Harcourt White (Esq)
