Subject: RE VERY URGENT
Greetings in the name of the Almighty.
Dear:Sir/Madam,
I am Fati
Mohd from Libya. I am married to Late Mr. Fahad mohd of blessed memory who is an oil explorer in Libya and Kuwait for twelve years before he died in the year 2000. We were married for twelve years without a child. He died after a brief illness that lasted for only four days. Since his death I too have been battling with both Cancer and fibroid problems. When my late Husband was alive he deposited a substantial amount of 15.million United State Dollars with a Deposit Company oversea Accra Ghana.
Recently, my doctor has informed me that I should leave for only six months due to cancer problem and High Blood Pressure, Though what disturbs me most is my Diabetic sickness. Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to either a charity/orphanage home or devoted God fearing individual that will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct herein. I want this
organization or individual to use this money in all sincerity to fund charity homes (motherless homes), orphanages, widows.
I took this decision because I don't have any child that will inherit this money and my husband relatives are into radical organization and I don't want a situation where this money will be used in an Unholy manner. Hence the reasons for this bold decision. Please, pray for me to recover, as your prayers will go a long way in uplifting my spirit.
I don't need any telephone communication in this regard because of my health, because of the presence of my husband's relatives around me always. I don't want them to know about this development. As soon as I receive your reply on I shall give you further directives of my Lawyer in West Africa who will go about actualizing this project. I will also issue a letter of authority to the Deposit Company authorizing them that the said fund Have being willed to you and a copy of such authorization will be forwarded to you. I want you to always pray for me.
Any delay in your reply will give room in sourcing for an organization or a devoted Individual for this same purpose. Until I hear from you by email; my dreams will rest squarely on your shoulders.
Remain blessed.
Regards
Fati Mohd
