From: Mrs.Stella Adams.
Dear, my quest to locate a responsible friend and partner to bring my dreams to a reality, hence l took this bold step to contact you through this medium and i would not like you to take an offence that l am bothering you since you do not know me neither have we met before.
I am Mrs. Stella Adams, I am married to Dr. Raymond Adams who worked with Shevron Oil Nigeria for 15 years, before he died in the year 2003. we were both 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 involved in charity services. Since his death I decided not to re-marry or get a child outside my matrimonial home which is against my principle. When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of $5.5 million (Five million Five hundred thousand u.s.dollars) with a Bank in Nigeria.
Presently, this money is still invested in this Bank in Nigeria. Recently, my doctor told me that I would not last for the next two months due to my cancer problem.Though what disturbs me most is my stroke sickness. Having known my condition of health, I have decided to donate this fund to charity, church, orphanage or an individual that will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct here in.I want an individual that will use these funds-to-fund charity,churches, orphanages and widows and to ensure that these set of people are well maintained.
I took this decision because I don't have any child that will inherit this money and my husband relatives are well of and I don't want my husband's hard earned money to be misused by them. As I do not want a situation whereby this money will be used in an ungodly manner,Hence the reasons for taking this bold decision. I have decided that this money will be shared as follows, 5% out of the total sum will be set aside for all the expencies you may encounter during this transaction, while 35% out of the total sum will be for your help and the remaining 60% will go for charity, churches, orphanages and widows.
As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the Bank in Nigeria, I will also issue you Letter Of Authorization that will prove you as the original beneficiary of this said funds. Most importantly, I want you to see to the need of the less priviledged. My happiness is that I lived a fulfiled life and l dont have any regrets in life.Please note that any delay in your reply will give more room in sourcing for another individual as I stated here in.
Do get back at me to me immediately for more directives.Hoping to hear from you soonest and do notify your interest to help me assist charity.
Best regards.
Mrs. Stella Adams.
