Subject: DEAREDEAREST ONE IN THE LORD
DEAREDEAREST ONE IN THE LORD
It is my Pleasure to write to you after considering your profile My name is
Mrs Jennifer Helen Benson., I am married to Mr Patrick Benson who worked
with kuwait company in Ivory Coast for Nine years before he died in the year
2005. We were married for eleven years without a child. he died after a
brief illness thatlasted for only four days. Before he death we were both
born again Christians. When my late husband was alive we deposited the sum
of $8.5Million (Eight Million five hundred thousand U.S. Dollars) with a
BANK here in COTE D'IVOIRE.
Presently, Tq his money is still with the bank. Recently, my Doctor told me
that I would not last due to cancer problem. Having known my condition I
decided to look for some one who is a man of God, a christian individual
that will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct here in. I want
a a person that will use this fund to churches, Orphanages, Widows and
Research centers for 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 dont have any child that will inherit this
money and my husband's relatives are not Christians and I don't want my
family hard earned money to be misused by 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.
I know that I am going to be in the bossom 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 family 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 bank where the money
was deposited for you to contact them and request them to transfer the money
to your account.
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 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 be prayerful all through your life. Any
delay in your reply will give me room insourcing for christian in dividual
for this same purpose. Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I
stated here.
Hoping to hearing from you immediately you received this mail.
Remain blessed in the name of the Lord.
Yours in Christ,
Mrs Jennifer Helen Benson.
