Dearest in christ,
With a warm heart I offer my friendship and
greetings, hoping this mail meets you in a good time.
However strange or surprising this contact might
seem to you as we have not met personally or had any dealings in the past.
I humbly ask that you take due consideration of its importance and immense
benefit. I duly apologize for infringing on your privacy, if this contact is
not acceptable to you, as I make this proposal to you as a person of
integrity.
I am Sarah Edgar now a retired oil merchant, I am a patient here in Amc
health centre,I am dying of bone and skin cancer, after been diagnosed of
this ailment, the doctor says i have a short time to live that it is by
miracle that i'm still alive .
I am a native of Holland i have no kids my hubby is dead i do not have any
relations but been directed by the LORD to inform you of his will to have
you as his servant .
I have contacted you as someone that can be trusted to use my fund for the
lords purpose and his children.
After i lost my husband i sold all my property and kept the funds i realised
from it in a security company for safe keeping.
During this period i prayed to the lord and he revealed to me that i should
seek an individual who will use this funds to glorify his name and he also
revealed to me that i will find the person in a miraculous way.when i got
your contact the spirit revealed to me that you are the one i've long been
seeking.
But knowing that if anything happens to me this wealth will be impounded by
the security company.After i prayed about the whole issue and cried for so
long he gave me a vision of faith in my dream and when i woke up i had my
bible by my side opened to Leviticus 5:15 : which says "If any one commits a
breach of faith and sins unwittingly in any of the holy things of the LORD
or defy the lord's command , he shall bring, as his guilt offering to the
LORD a ram without blemish out of the flock, valued by you in shekels of
silver, according to the shekel of the sanctuary; it
is a guilt offering.i prayed to the LORD to put me through to the right
path, Who then led me to you in a miraculous way.
I have contacted you to assist in using my wealth for the development of his
kingdom work, i want us to act fast and have this funds out of the security
company before they get confiscated or declared unserviceable by the
Security Company.
I seek your consent to present you as my next of kin. so that the proceeds
of this consignment valued at $18.5 million dollars be paid to you for the
lord's purpose and then you can use the money to glorify the lord. I have
all necessary informations that can be used to back up any claim we may
make. All I require is your honest co-operation to see us through.
Faith,Honesty and Trust is our watch word. Your rapid response is of high
request as this will let us know if you are really interested in making the
lords will for his children come to reality. Remain Blessed.
In His Service
Sarah
