Abidjan Cote d’Ivoire
Dearest One.
My name is Dr. Thomson Tapi, a nationality of Ivory Coast and Director
Ministry of Health. I am married to late Mrs. Stephanie Thomson who worked
with France Embassy in Ivory Coast (my country) for 12 years as an
accountant before she died in the year October 2003.
We were married for twenty years with a daughter. She died after an illness
that lasted for long four days. Before her death we were both Christians.
When my late wife was alive we deposited the sum of $10.5Million (Ten
Million Five Hundred Thousand U.S. Dollars) with one of good bank here in
Cote d'Ivoire as a joint account. The purpose of this hug sum with the bank
is for building a hospital of our own after our retirement from government
work.
Presently, this money is still with the bank. Recently I discovered that I
would not last for the next three months due to my cancer problem. Though
what disturbs me most is my stroke. Having known my condition I decided to
donate this fund to organization or better still a Christian individual that
will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct here in.
The 50% of this total fund will be for my daughter future in your country,
the 20% will be for you/family for your assistance while the remaining 30%
will be use for churches, orphanages, research centres and widows
propagating also to help the need ones.
I want a person or organization that will use this fund to churches,
orphanages, research centres 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
have a child that will inherit this money but my daughter can not carryout
this work only because I and my late wife decide to use some of the money to
work for God and live some for the building of our hospital so that our
daughter to have a better live.
Our daughter is just 19 year old now and been grow up in Africa, she have
low maternity and my relatives are not Christians and I don’t want my family
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 to. 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 want your email
communication in this regard because of my health condition my Doctor told
me to avoid receiving telephone call and because of the presence of my
family relatives around me always. I don’t want any of my family relatives
to receive this money or to know about this fund transfer.
As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the
Finance/bank. I will also issue you a letter of authority that will empower
you as my partner to receive this fund, with God all things are possible. I
want you and family to always pray for me because the lord is my shepherd.
My happiness is that I live a life of a worthy Christian.
Please I will like to hear from you immediately you get this mail because
any delay in your reply will give me room in sourcing for a organization or
Christian individual for this same purpose. Please assure me that you will
act accordingly as I stated here. I have told my daughter my intension
of contacting you on this matter.
Expecting to hearing from you for more details,
Remain blessed
Dr. Thomson Tapi.
