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 after series of prayers and
fasting for Gods direction.
I am Mrs.Luz Stella Tarboda. person from Colombia undergoing medical
treatment. I was married to Dr. Castillo Tarboda 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
againChristians. Since his death I decided not to re-marry or get a child
outside my matrimonial home.When mylate 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,thismoney
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 or Hurricane Katrina victim
that suvives that will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct
here . I want a church/Mosque or individual that will use this fund or,
orphanages or and widows propagating the
word of God and also to the survive victim of the Katrina Hurricane and to
also ensure that the house of Godis 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 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
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.
Thanks and God bless,
Till i hear from you soonest,
Mrs.Luz Stella Tarboda.
