Subject: Dearly beloved in christ
From: Mrs. Lynne Wyatt
Mutual Trust and Blessings to you.
I am the above named person but now undergoing medical
treatment now. I
am
married to Dr. Mikail G. Wyatt who worked with Russian
Embassy in South
Africa for over nine years before he died in the year
2003.
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
born
again Christians. Since his death I decided not to
re-marry or get a
child
outside my matrimonial home, which the Bible is
against. When my late
husband was alive he deposited the sum of$27.6Million
(twenty-seven
million
six hundred thousand U.S. Dollars) with one
finance/security company in
Europe.
Presently, this money is still with the Security/
Finance Company.
Recently, my Doctor told me that I would not last for
the next three
months
due to cancer problem. Though what disturbs me most is
my stroke.
Having
known my condition I decided to donate this fund to
church or better
still a
Christian individual that will utilize this money the
way I am going to
instruct here in. I want a church or individual to
that will use this
to
fund churches, orphanages and widows propagating the
word of the lord
and to
ensure that the house of the lord is maintained. The
Bible made us to
understand that blessed is the hand that gives. 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 husbands hard
earned money to be
misused by unbelievers. I don't want a situation where
this money will
be
used in an ungodly 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 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, and because of 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 give you
the
contact of the Finance/Security Company Europe. I will
also issue you a
letter of authority that will empower you as the
original- beneficiary
of
this fund. I want you 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
for a reliable
individual for this same purpose. Please assure me
that you will act
accordingly as I stated herein. Hoping to hear from
you.
Please reply me through my private email; lynne_wyatt2005@yahoo.co.uk
Remain blessed
Mrs. Lynne Wyatt
