Subject: From Mrs R.Williams-A Proposal
Hello,
I am Mrs Ruth Williams from Togo, presently staying in Italy.
I was married to Mr.John Williams who worked with an oil company
in Lome-Togo for ten years before he died in the year 2003.We were
married for five years without a child. He died after a brief illness
that lasted for only four days living me at such a youg age without a husband.
Before his death we were both born again Christians.Since his death I
decided not to remarry or get a child outside my matrimonial home.
When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of $9.8Million
(Nine million eight hundred thousand U.S.Dollars) with a Finance company.
Presently,this money is still with the finance company.
Recently,my Doctor told me that I would not last for the next eight months due to cancer
problem.The one that disturbs me most is my stroke sickness.
I want an organization or an individual that will use this fund for orphanages, widows,
propagating the word of God and to endeavor 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 and my husband relatives are not Christians
and I don't want my husband's efforts to be used by unbelievers.
I don't want a situation where this money will be used in an ungodly way.This is why I am
taking this decision. I am not afraid of death hence I know where I am going. I know that I am
going to be in the bosom of the Lord. Exodus 14 VS 14 says that the lord will fight my
case and I shall hold my peace.
I don't need any telephone communication in this regard because of my health hence the
presence of my husband's relatives around me 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 inform the finance company that you are the
beneficiary of the said deposit.I will also issue you an authority letter that will prove
you the present beneficiary of this fund.I want you and the organization to always pray for
me because the lord is my shepherd.
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 sourcing another person for this same purpose.
Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I stated herein. If you want to talk by phone,
you can contact my doctor on his Email address( ckenny8@yahoo.com) his name is Dr Kenny
Labamba.
Hoping to receive your reply and remain blessed in the Lord.
God bless you.
Mrs Ruth Williams
