Subject: FROM REV DAVID RESPOND URGENTLY
Dear Beloved,
Calvary Greetings. I am a preacher with the Africa International
Christian Mission Inc,and It is by the grace of God that I , know the
truth and the truth have set me free. Having known the truth, I had no
choice than to do what is lawful and right in the sight of God for
eternal life and in the sight of man for witness of God's mercy and
glory upon my life .I will like to get advice from you.I believe the
advice I need is pecular to some extent,but do have the patience to
understand my intention.
A few year's ago I was in Liberia were I had established a little
congregation where I preached regularly,but the civil war escaleted and
the church was converted to a hospital of sourghts. On one faith full
day three ECOMOG Soldiers came to me and left trunks of Money with me
and swore to come back for it.
When the war in Liberia intensified I deposited this box in a security
vault in abroad, I was escorted to security vault abroad by another
higher ranked ECOMOG soldiers who felt the content of the trunks were
my ministry,s documents and never cared to check the trunks,I was air
lifted to one of the counries in abroad with other refugees then,I
stayed there and when I was getting fraustrated I returned to Africa
only
to find out that two of the three Soldiers died in Battle while the
last was decleared MIA (Missing in Action). After thorough
investigation of the trunk boxes,i discovered that the three trunk
boxes had a total
amount of Seven Million United States Dollars($7,000,000,00) which was
unknown to me from the very begining. Considering the fact that there
was no possiblility of the soldiers coming back for their funds,
arrangements were immediately made to have the funds deposited in a
suspence account with a commercial
bank in abroad .(the particular country in abroad i will diclose as
soon as you indicate your intrest) I am interested in using a small
fraction of this money,much less than one percent for are-organisation
of the
work,but I do not need the rest and do not want to have any direct
dealing with it.but I need someone who will be able to use the fund
better maybe for charity or something universally profitable,I have
thought of doing it myself but,my ministry is the apocalypse and I
believe and preach the soon coming of the Lord which make me not
indulgent in reliance on mon ey or wealth in any form.I will be glad if
you have any interest in the direction of maybe managing or
transmitting the fund as you prefer in your capacity and
understanding.please if you are interested, i would want you to send me
the following informations:
1.Your legitimate name,
2.Your contact address,
3.Your phone number,
4.Your fax number.
with all these informations,i will take it that you are interested and
the funds will be transferred to you in
provision of the above informations,and as such you will be the only
one who can lay claims to the fund and then,i will give you all the
relevant information with which you can lay claims to the funds.but i
want you to note clearly that you will pay for the activation of the
account before you can be given full access to the account and you will
promise me that you will use the fund for good deeds. I will be glad to
get a response from you to show your interest.
My Regards,
Rev. David John
