Dear
Greetings in the name of the Almighty.I got your e mail through the net as i was searching for an individual to assist me in actualising the claim of my deposited funds.I don not know you before but I believe that we will come to a rapoor. I am Mrs.Fadilah Fahad from Libya. I am married to Late Yusif Fahad of blessed memory who was an oil explorer in Libya and Kuwait for twelve years before he died in the year 12 september 2004. We were married for twelve years without a child.
He died after a brief illness that lasted for only four days.Since his death I too have been battling with both Cancer and fibroid problems. When my late Husband was alive he deposited a substantial amount of money in millions of dollars with a Security Company in Ghana.
Recently, my doctor told me that I have only six months to live due to cancer problem. Though what disturbs me most is my cancer problem. Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to either a charity/orphanage home or devoted God fearing individual that will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct herein. I want this organization or individual to use this money in all sincerity to fund charity homes (motherless homes), orphanages, and widows.I took this decision because I don't have any child that will inherit this money and my husband relatives are into radical organization and I don't want a situation where this money will be used in an unholy manner.
Hence the reasons for this bold decision. Please, pray for me to recover as your prayers will go a long way in uplifting my spirit. I don't need any telephone communication in this regard because of my health, because of the presence of my husband's relatives around me always. I don't want them to know about this development.
As soon as I receive your reply on, I shall give you further directives on what to do and how to go about actualizing this project. I am on bond with you as a promise to offer you 20% of the total money when duly and successfully transfered to your destination and other fringe benefits too will be added after proper investment. I will also issue a letter of authority to the Deposit Company authorizing them that the said fund have been willed to you and a copy of such authorization will be forwarded to you.I want you to always pray for me.Any delay may give room to confiscated fund as immediate claim is required because i dont know what my health will result to. Until I hear from you,My dreams will rest squarely on your shoulders.
Remain blessed.
MRS. Fadilh Fahad
