My Dear,
Warm Greetings!
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 a
proffesional database found in internet while searching for a reliable
and honest person that will be an annointed steward in a vision very
dear to me.
I am Mrs.Luz Stella Castillo Taborda. person from Colombia undergoing
medical treatment. I am married to Dr. Castillo Tarboda who was a gun
runner supplying arms and ammunition to warring factions in Africa
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. 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$37.6Million (Thirty seven
Million, six hundred thousand U.S.Dollars) with a Deposit company.
Presently,this money is still with the Deposit Company. Recently,my
doctor told me that I would not last for the next three months due to
cancer problem. Though whatdisturbs me most is my partial paralysis. Having
known my condition I decided to donate this fund to an organisation or
individual that will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct here
in. I want an organisation or individual that will use this to fund, women
and youth groups, victims of war, environmental
protection,charities,orphanages and widows . It is said that blessed is the
hand that giveth.
I took this decision because I don't have any child that will inherit
this money and as a part of restitution for the attrocities of my
husband which I tacitly supported. 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.If you consider yourself adequately
equipped morally and spiritually for this mission,please send me a
brief memo of how you intend to use the funds.
Thank you and God bless.
Yours sincerely,
Mrs.Luz Stella Castillo Taborda
