Fraud email example:
From: Mrs Rubecca Johnson <rubecca_j04@yahoo.co.in>
Date: Thu, 21 Sep 2006 21:32:29 +0100 (BST)
Subject: DONATION FROM SISTER RUBECCA.
Dearest In The Lord:
I am Mrs Rubecca Johnson from Kuwait. I married
to late Dr Eric Johnson who worked with Kuwait
embassy in Ivory Coast for nine years before he died
in the year 2004.We were married for eleven years with
out a child. He died after a brief illness that lasted
for only four days.
Before his death we were both born again Christian.
Since his death I decided not to remarry or get a
child outside my matrimonial home which the Bible is
against. When my late husban was alive he deposited a
box containing the sum of One Million Dollars in one
of the security company here in Abidjan.
Recently, my Doctor told me that I would not last for
the next Eight months due to cancer problem. Having
known my condition I decided to donate this fund to a
church that will utilize this money the way I am going
to instruct herein.
I want a church or Individual that will use this fund
for orphanages, widows, propagating the word of God
and to endeavor 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 efforts to be used by unbelievers.
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 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 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 give you the contact of the
security company. I will also issue you an
authorisation letter that will prove you the present
beneficiary of this fund.
I want you and the church to always pray for me
because the lord is my shephard. 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 continue your prayers upon me.Contact
me on this email address any delay in your reply will
give me room in sourcing another church for this same
purpose. Please assure me that you will act
accordingly as I Stated herein. Hoping to receive your
reply.
Remain blessed in the Lord.
Yours in Christ,
Mrs Rubecca Johnson
