Subject: LET ME KNOW PLZ
From Mrs.Vivian Rodigruez
Hello my dear friend,
Forgive my indignation if this message comes to you as a surprise and may
offend your personality for contacting you
without your prior consent and writing through this channel.I got your
contact from searching for a reliable and honest person that will assist me
safeguard fund .divinely inspired to pick your name among other names found
after series of prayers/fasting for Gods direction. I am Mrs.Vivian phillip
Rodigruez. person from Colombia undergoing medical treatment. I was married
to Dr. phillip Rodigruez who worked with Malaysia embassy in South Africa
for nine years before he died in the year 2000.We were married for twenty
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. Since his
death I decided not to re-marry or get a child outside my matrimonial
home.When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of $10.6 (Ten
Million six hundred thousand U.S.Dollars)with one finance/security company
in EUROPE.Presently,this money is still with the Security
Company.Recently,my Doctor told me that I have six months to live as I am
terminally ill with cancer.Though what disturbs me most is my partial
paralysis. Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to a
church/mosque or better still a Christian/Moslem individual that will
utilize this money the way I am going to instruct here in. I want a
church/Mosque or individual that will use this to fund churches/Mosque,
orphanages and widows propagating the word of God and to ensure that the
house of God is maintained.They said 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's relatives are not Christians and I don't want my husband's
hard earned money to be mis-used by unbelievers.I don't want a situation
where this money will be used in an ungodl manner,hence the reason for
taking this bold decision. I am not afraid of death hence I know where I am
going. I know that I am going to be in the bossom of God.If you will be of
assistance,I will surely appreciate and reward you for your kindness in
rendering help to a dying woman.
Vivian Rodigruez
