Subject: VERY VERY URGENT
From:mrs grace edward
Attn:
This letter is not intended to cause any embarrassment
in whatever form, rather is compelled to contact your
esteemed self, following the knowledge of your high
repute and trustworthiness.
I am the above named person from Central African
Republic, presently staying in Europe. I was
married to Mr. john edward who was a Central African
Republic politician and a Bank Executive for more than
thirteen years before he died in the year
2003,November 20.We were married for eleven years
without a child. He died after a brief illness that
lasted for only four days.
Before his death we were both born again Christian
and also charitable people. Since his death I decided
not to remarry or get a child outside my matrimonial
home which the Bible is against. When my late husband
was alive he deposited the sum of $11.5Million (Eleven
Million Five hundred Thousand U.S. Dollars) cash in my
name with one Security company in Europe. Presently,
this money is still with the Security Company.
Recently, my Doctor told me that I would not last for
the next Four months due to cancer problem. The one
that disturbs me most is my stroke sickness. Having
known my condition I decided to keep this fund in
Europe.
I want an organization or an individual that will use
this fund for orphanages, widows, tsunami victims,huricane victims.
propagating the word of God and to endeavor 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 don't have any child that
will inherit this money and my husband relatives are
not capable, competent and Christians besides I don't
want my husband´s efforts to be used extravagantly.
I don't want a situation where this money will be used
in an ungodly way. This is why I am taking this
decision. I am not afraid of death hence I know where
I am going. I know that I am going to be in the bosom
of the Lord. Exodus 15 VS 13 says that in your
unfailing love you will lead the people you have
redeemed. I don't need any telephone communication in
this regard because of my health hence the presence of
my husband's relatives around me always. I don't want
them to know about this development. With God all
things are possible.
As soon as I receive your reply I shall inform the
security company in Europe that you are the new
beneficiary of the said consignment you will need to
go and claim this fund in Europe. I will also issue
you an authority letter that will prove you the
present beneficiary of this fund. I want you and the
organization to always pray for me because the lord is
my shepherd. My happiness is that I lived a life of a
worthy Christian. Whoever that wants to serve the Lord
must serve him in spirit and truth. Please always be
prayerful all through your life.
Any delay in your reply will give me room in sourcing
another person for this same purpose. Please assure me
that you will act accordingly as I stated herein.
You have to send to me your full contact details like:
1. Your full name and address
2. Your telephone and fax number if any
3. Your contact mailing address.
So that the security company will open up communication with you
directly with my directives.
Hoping to receive your reply and Remain blessed in the
Lord.

Yours in Christ,
MRS GRACE EDWARD
