Subject: DEAR BELOVED,
MRS LINDA WELSH
54 PORTLAND PLACE,
LONDON.
W1N 4AD
DEAR BELOVED,
PLEASE ENDEAVOUR TO USE IT FOR THE CHILDREN OF GOD.
I am the above named person from LONDON. I am married to MR JIMMY WELSH who
worked with BRITISH embassy in CANADA for nine years before he died in the
year 1999. We were married for eleven years without achild.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
mymatrimonial home which the Bible is against.When my late husband was alive
he deposited the sum of £7.5 Million (seven Million five hundred thousand
pound sterling)with an OFFSHORE BANK here in UK.Presently, this money is
still under the safe keeping of the BANK.Recently, my Doctor told me that I
would not last for the next SEVEN months due to my cancer problems.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 toinstruct here in. I want a church
that will use this fund on, orphanages and widows propagating the word of
God and to ensure that the house of God is maintained. The Bible made us to
understand that 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
relatives are not Christians and Idon't want my husband's hard earned money
to be misused by unbelievers and 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 the Lord. I know 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. With God all things are possible. As soon as I receive your reply I
will forward your personal information to my husband's Attorney in London
who will contact the BANK and introduce you as the legal owner of this fund
before transfering the fund into your nominated Bank Account
in your country.You will be issued a letter of authority by him that will
empower you mas the original- beneficiary of this fund. I want you and the
church to always pry 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 assure me that you will act accordingly as I stated here in.
Your response should be channeled to my alternate email account at
(linda_welsh@rixmail.se)
Hoping to hear from you as soon as possible.
Rmain blessed in the name of the Lord.
