Subject: WITH GOD ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE...................
Helen Kofl
16 Rue be kpota
Lome-Togo
West- AFRICA
I am Mrs.Helen Kofl from South Africa. I am married to Late Mr.Johannez Kofl of the blessed memory who worked with South african embassy in Lome Togo for nine years before he died in the year 2002. 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 very devoted christians and since his death I too have been battling with both cancer and fibroid problems,when my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of$12.6Million (Twelve Million six hundred thousand U.S. Dollars) with a security company in Lome Togo and Presently this money is still with the SecurityCompany. Recently, my Doctor told me that I would not last for the next six months due to cancer problem. Though what disturbs me most is my stroke sickness.
Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to either a christian organisation or a devoted christian individual that will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct here- in. I want this christian organisation or individual to use this money with all sincererity to fund churches, orphanages,widows and also propagating the word of God and to ensure that the society upholds the views and beliefs of the holy bible.
The holy Bible emphasized so much on God'S benevolence love and this has encouraged me to take this bold step. I took this decision because I dont have any child that will inherit this money and my husband relatives are fighting me every now and then over his properties and fund's and I dont want my husbands hard earned money to be misused by people I call holigans. I dont want a situation where this money will be used in an unholy manner.
Hence the reason for taking this bold decision, I know that after death I will be with GOD the most high and the most merciful, I dont need any telephone communication in this regard because of my health and the presence of my husbands relatives around me always, I dont want them to know about this development.
With GOD all things are possible. As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of my lawyer and the Security Company. I will also issue you a letter of authority that will prove you as the original-beneficiary of this fund.I want you and the Christian community where you reside to always pray for me, my happiness is that I lived a life of a true devoted Christian worthy of emulation.
Whoever that wants to serve the almighty GOD must serve him in truth and in fairness. Please always be prayerful all through your life. Any delay in your reply will give me room in sourcing for a Christian organisation or another devoted christian for this same purpose.
Until I hear from you, my dreams will rest squarely on your shoulders.
May the almighty God continue to guide and protect you.
AMEN.
Regards,
Mrs Helen Kofl.
