FROM MRS NANCY WILFORD OF NETHERLANDS
PLEASE ENDEAVOUR TO USE IT ON CHURCHES AND ORPHANAGES
REPLY-TO: mrsnancywilford1@sify.com
Dearest one,
I am the above named person from Netherlands. I am married to Dr.Franklyn
Wilford who worked with canada Embassy in Nigeria for nine years before
his death on march 2003.We were 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 born again christians.When my late husband
was alive he deposited the sum of Fifteen million, four hundred thousand
U.S.Dollars (US$15.4) with UNION BANK OF NIGERIA PLC
Presently, this money is still with the above mentioned bank and the management
just wrote me as the beneficiary to come forward to receive the money or
rather issue a letter of authorisation to somebody to receive it on my behalf
if I can not come over.Again, I'm with my laptop in a hospital where I have
been undergoing treatment for cancer of the lungs. I have since lost my
ability to talk and my doctors have told me that I have only a few months
to live.
It is my last wish to see this money distributed to charity organizations
because relatives and friends have plundered so much of my wealth since
my illness. I cannot live with the agony of entrusting this huge responsibility
to any of them. Please,I beg you in the name of God to help me collect the
deposit and the interest accrued from the bank and distribute it accordingly.
I want a person that has God fearing, that will use this money on churches
and orphanages propagating the word of God and to ensure that the house
of God is maintained. The Bible made us to understand that Blessed is the
hand that giveth.I took this decision because I don't have any child that
will inherit this money.My happiness is that I lived a life of a worthy
Christian. Whoever that wants to serve the Lord must serve him in spirit
and truth. Please always be prayerful all through your life. Any delay in
your reply will give me room in searching for another person for this same
purpose.
Hoping to hear from you soonest.
Yours Sister in the Lord,
Mrs Nancy Wilford
NB:Please kindly contact me on my alternative email:(mrsnancywilford1@sify.com)
for arrangements regarding this transaction and assure me that you will
act accordingly as I stated herein.
