Subject: TO YOU DEAR FRIEND
MRS AGNES GEORGE,
765 WATER FRONT
VICTORIA ISILAND
DEAR Beloved,
PLEASE ENDEAVOUR TO USE IT FOR THE CHILDREN OF GOD. I am the above named person , i got your information on christain guest book which im impressed with your profile. I am married to Dr. Johnson GEORGE A LIBERIAN but I’m now in Lagos
State General HOSPITAL taking treatment for my sickness, my late husband worked with Canadian embassy for nine years before he died in the year 2000. 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
Christians. Since his death I decided not to re-marry or get a child outside
my matrimonial home, which the Bible is against.
When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of$7.5 Million (seven
Million five hundred thousand U.S.Dollars) with a. Presently, this money is
still under the safe keeping of the Reserve Bank recently, my Doctor told me
that I would not last for the next SEVEN months due to my cancer problems.
Though what disturbs me most is my stroke. Having known my condition, I
decided to donate this fund to church or better still a Christian individual
that will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct here in. I want
a church that will use this fund on, orphanages and widows propagating the
word of God and to ensure 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 Christians and I don't want my husband's hard
earned money to be misused by unbelievers. I don't want a situation where
this money will be used in an ungodly manner. Hence the reasons for taking
this bold 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 14 VS 14 says that the lord will fight my case
and I shall hold my peace. 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. With God all things are possible. As soon as I receive your
reply I forward your personal information to the Bank so that they will
contact you as the legal owner of this fund before transferring the fund
into your nominated Bank Account in your country.
I will also issue you a letter of a authority that will empower you as the
original- beneficiary of this fund. I want you and the church 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 any delay
in your reply will give me room in sourcing for a church or Christian
individual for this same purpose. Please assure me that you will act
accordingly as I stated herein. Hoping to hear from you as soon as
possible..
Remain blessed in the name of the Lord.
Yours in Christ,
Mrs AGNES GEORGE
