Compliments of the day Beloved,
I am mother Silvana.M. Jayasinha, Formerly Silvana
C.Weddell, I am 50 years old. I became a citizen of
Hong Kong due to marriage, but I am resident in
Falkland Islands (Islas Malvinas) at present which
will probably be my final resting place. I was born
an orphan in 1955. I have no father or mother, and I
have no relatives.
I was blessed to have married a humble and kind man,
Dr. Matyer Jayasinha.We both Struggled and worked hard
and the Almighty blessed us abundantly with riches. He
was a Dealer in textiles, apparel.I am now old and sick
without a husband and children.This has made me unhappy.
I have not re-married due to the fact that I want to
cherish my husband`s memory.For 2 years Now I have been
seriously sick.Presently I am undergoing treatment for
esophageal cancer by a nurse here in my Abode.I have little
time so I have committed it to spreading my wealth towards
better health Care for mankind because this will be what my
husband wanted.
Closer to My Husbands call home, He made me aware of the
liquid funds amounting to $20 million U.S.D. In currency
with a financial company In Europe. I want you to take
custody of the deposit, and use the money to fund churches,
orphanages and widows propagating the word of God and to
ensure that the house of God is maintained.
Presently, this money is still with the Bank and the
management just wrote me as the beneficiary to come
forward to sign for the release of this money or rather
issue a letter of authorization to somebody to receive it
on my behalf if I can not come over.Please, I beg you in
the name of God to help me Stand and collect the Funds
from the Bank.
I don't need any telephone communication in this regard
because of my soundless voice and presence of my husband's
relatives around me always.I don't want them to know about
this development.
Giving to the poor and less privileged is what being a
Christian is about.All I need from you is your assurance
that you will use this fund judiciously as stated in this
message. This is all for now. Upon your response further
Instructions will be made known to you.
May you remain blessed.
Mrs.Silvana .M. Jayasinha .
