Greetings in the name of Almighty Allah
May Allah bless you and reward you,as you are reading this letter.My name is Halima Hida;My late Father deposited $10 million
usadollars in security company and told the security company ;that hislawyer ,who is now my lawyer will get the names of
people or any one who will help me to receive the money abroad and help me to invest it,wheni accept becoming a muslim and
now am a muslim ,formerly i refused tobe a muslim,because i was foolish.
My late father told his lawyer ,that the $10 million should betransfered abroad and be received abroad and invested
abroad ; 30% of theprofit,gotten from the investment,should be used for charity homesyearly;
My late father told my uncles that the money ,belongs to his friendabroad,because my uncles wanted to kill him,because he is
a muslim and my late father does not want me to stay in my country here,because myuncles are wicked people;and if my uncles
knows he kept the money forme,they will kill me .
So his lawyer ,who is my lawyer told me to get the name of any one whowill help me to receive the money abroad,because the
security companyrefused to give me the
money here,in my country and the security company said,my late fathertold them to give money out the money abroad to any one

If you will help me to receive the money in your country,i will giveyou 20% of the money;which is $2million usa dollar
and we shall alsoinvest 30% of the money,with you in your country and share the profit ot the investment.
my lawyer will tell you how the money will get to you;he was my later father's lawyer too.Kindly,send your names and mobile
