Subject: hello brother in christ
My Lordship/Friend,
Calvary greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus
Christ, I am former Mrs Veronica Danjuma, now
Mrs sena atty, a widow to Late Mr Danjuma Chris,
I am 72years old, I am now a new Christian convert,
suffering from long time cancer of the breast. From
all indications, my condition is really deteriorating
and is quite obvious that I may not live more than
six months, because the cancer stage has gotten to a very
severe stage.
My late husband was killed during the Gulf war, and
during the period of our marriage we had a son who
was also killed in a cold blood during the Gulf war. My
late husband was very wealthy and after his death, I
inherited all his business and wealth. My personal
physician told me that I may not live for more than
six months and I am so scared about this. So, I now
decided to divide part of this wealth, by contributing
to the development of evangelism in Africa, America,
Europe and Asian Countries.
This mission which will no doubt be tasking had made
me to recently relocated to Nigeria, Africa where I
live presently. I selected your church after visiting
the website for this purpose and prayed over it, I
am willing to donate the sum of $3,000,000.00 Million
US Dollars to your Church/Ministry for the development
of evangelism and also as aids for the less privileged around you.
Please note that, this fund is lying in a Security
Company in Holland and the company has branches,
therefore my lawyer will file an immediate
application for the transfer of the money in the name
of your ministry. Please, do not reply me if you have
the intention of using this fund for personal use
other than enhancement of evangelism.
Lastly, I want you/your ministry to be praying for
me as regards my entire life and my health because I
have come to find out since my spiritual birth lately that
wealth acquisition without Jesus Christ in one's life is vanity upon
vanity.If you have to die says the Lord, keep fit and I will give you
the
crown of life.
May the Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the love of
God, and the sweet fellowship of the Holy Spirit be
with you.
I await your urgent reply.
Yours in Christ
Mrs sena atty,
Christ Live Church,
Bodija, Lagos, Nigeria.
"To her [Mary] I entrust you,
that the New Woman,
Mother of the Church and of the New Humanity,
may be your inspiration in the discovery
of a new feminine identity in the Gospel perspective."
- John Paul II, Sept. 4, 1988
