Subject: My Humble Donantion
Dear Sir/Madam,
Calvary greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, I am former
Mrs Adrian Mike, a widow to Late Sheik Mike, I am 72years old, I am
now a new Christian convert, suffering from long time cancer of the
breast.
From all indications, my condition is really deteriorating and is
quite obvious that I may not live more than six months, because the
cancer stage has gotten to a very severe stage. My late husband was
killed during the Gulf war, and during the period of our marriage we
had a son who was also killed in a cold blood during the Gulf war.
My late husband was very wealthy and after his death, I inherited all
his business and wealth. My personal physician told me that I may not
live for more than six months and I am so scared about this. So, I
now decided to divide part of this wealth, by contributing to the
development of charity organization in Africa, America, Europe and Asian
Countries.
This mission which will no doubt be tasking had made me to recently
relocated to Zimbabwe, Africa where I live presently. I selected your
you after visiting the website for this purpose and prayed over
it, I am willing to donate the sum of $10.000,000.00 Million US
Dollars to charity organization and also as aids for the less privileged
around you.
Please note that, this fund is lying in a Golden link diplomatic & financier
s.l in Spain , you can reach the company on thi number 0034-675397278
and they will explain more and the company has branches, therefore my
lawyer will file an immediate application for the transfer of the
money in your name . Please, do not reply me if you
have the intention of using this funds for personal use other than
enhancement of charity organization.
Lastly, I want you to be praying for me as regards my
entire life and my health because I have come to find out since my
spiritual birth lately that wealth acquisition without Jesus Christ
in one's life is vanity upon vanity.
If you have to die says the Lord, keep fit and I will give you the
crown of life. May the Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the love of
God, and the sweet fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you.
I await your urgent reply.
Yours in Christ,
Mrs Adrian Mike.
