Subject: [SPAM?] From Mrs Joy Atah
From Mrs Joy Atah
Abidjan Cote d'Ivoire
Dearest in Christ
My name is Mrs Joy Atah a nationality of Kuwait. I am married to late Mr.
Leo Atah who worked with Kuwait embassy in Ivory Coast for nine years before
he died in the year Octorber 2003. We were married for twenty years with a
child. He died after a the illness thatlasted for long four days.Before his
death we were both born again Christians. When my late husband was alive we
deposited the sum of $4Million (FOUR Million U.SDollars) with one of good
banks here in Cote d'Ivoire . Presently, this money is still with the bank.
Recently my Doctor told me that I would not last for the next three months
due to my cancer problem.
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 person or church that will use this fund to churches, orphanages, research
centres 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 have a child that will
inherit this money but my son can not carryout this work only because i and
my late husband decide to use some of the money to work for God and live
some for our son to have a better live our son is just 17yearold now and
been grow up in africa, he have low manterity and my husband´s relatives are
not Christians and I dont want my family hard earned money to be misused
unbelievers. I dont want a situation where this money will be used in an
ungodly manner. Hence the reason for taking this bold decision. I am not
afraid of death hence I know where I am going to. 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 want your telephone communication in
this regard because of my health because of the presence of my family
relatives around me always .
I dont want any of my husband family relatives to recieve this money. With
God all things are possible. As soon as I receive your reply I shall give
you the contact of the Finance/bank. I will also issue you a letter of
authority that will empower you as the new 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 live 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 for a church or Christian individual for this same purpose.
Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I stated here. Remain
blessed in the name of the Lord.
Mrs. Joy Atah
