Dear Beloved,
I bless you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
It is by the grace of God that I received Christ, knowing the truth and the truth have set me free. Having known the truth, I had no choice than to do what is lawful and right in the sight of God for eternal life and in the sight of man for witness of God's mercy and glory upon my life.
I have the pleasure to share my testimony with you, having seen your contact from the Internet. I am Evangelist Mrs. Sara Dominic, the legal adviser to late Mr. and Mrs. Carlos Montoya, an American couple that lived in my Country Nigeria for 25 years before they both died in a plane crash late last year. These couples were good Christians, they where so dedicated to God but they had no child till they died.
Throughout their stay in my country, they acquired lots of landed properties, investment, etc. As their legal adviser, Mr.Carlos Montoya instructed me to write his WILL before their death. Because they had no child, they dedicated their wealth to God. According to the WILL, the properties have to be sold and the money be given out to the Churches of God for God's work. As their legal adviser, all the documents for the properties were in my care. He gave me the authority to sell the properties and give out the fund to the Ministries for the work of God. In short, I sold all the properties after their death as instructed and I realized the total sum of US$21,320,000.00 (Twenty One Million, Three Hundred and Twenty US dollars) from the sold properties based on the initial agreement between me and the owner of the properties before his death. Therefore the total amount left to be invested into God's work as instructed by the owner is US$21,320,000.00. But Instead of giving this !
fund out for the work of God as instructed to me by the owner before his death, I converted the fund to myself with the intention of investing it abroad for my personal use.
However, I had encounter with Jesus Christ when Pastor Benny Hinn was preaching concerning Ananias and Saphira in Acts 5:1-11. After hearing the word of God, I gave my life to Christ and became a born again Christian. As a born again Christian, I have asked God for forgiveness and I know that God have forgiven me. But I have to do what is lawful and right in the sight of God by giving out the fund to the chosen ministry/individual for the purpose of God's work as instructed by the owner before his death.
I then came across your address on the Internet as I was browsing through some sites/Christian pages. As a matter of fact, it was not only you that I picked on the Internet initially but after my fervent prayer, you were nominated to me through divine revelation. This is how I received such a divine revelation and then decided to contact you for the fund to be used wisely for things that will glorify the name of God.
I have notified the bank where the fund is deposited that I am moving the fund abroad and they has since been waiting for my authority for the fund to leave my country to abroad. If you know that you will use this fund honestly and wisely for things that will glorify God's name, please forward to me the following for us to step into this matter fully:
(1) Full name,
(2) Residential address,
(3) Place and date of birth,
(4) Occupation and
(5) telephone/fax number.
With the above information, our legal adviser will arrange the WILL in your favor to enable the bank transfer the fund into your bank account over there for the purpose of using it as directed by the late owner. However, I have decided in my capacity that you be compensated since this assignment will require your time and service. Please reach me upon your receipt of this mail for more details. Presently, I am in Europe for evangelism on behalf of my ministry (Living Faith Assembly) and you can reach me on phone No. 447023059727 for direct discussion. Better still send your reply to my email address: livingfaith_assembley@o2.pl for immediate action on this subject matter.
Remain blessed in the Lord.
Evangelist Mrs. Sara Dominic.
