Subject: Assalamualaikum
Dear
May Allah the most grateful and the most merciful be with you, I write this letter with most concern to our Muslim values and the teachings of Holy Mohammed (May peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) to uplift and defend our religion at all times. I am motivated to write this letter to you after much consideration and with total submission to the will of Allah the most grateful and most merciful.
I am Hajia Jemila Mohammed the wife of Dr Abdul Mohammed who was the patron of Muslim Association of Britain (MAB) till he became ill in 1994; he died of cancer in 13th Feb 2005. Until his death we are a devoted Muslim family with the fear of Allah in every thing we do knowing that our reward is not on earth but with Allah. Our marriage was not blessed with any child despite our 30 years of marriage. I have only my husband's brothers who cowardly became Christian converts because of the pressure on Muslims after July 2005 bombings in U.K. They have been brain washed to abandon Muslim fate and the teaching of Islam.
I have been battling with the same cancer that killed my husband for all these years. Recently my doctor told me that I have to be strong in spirit, I knew probably I am approaching my end, but I am happy that I have lived an exemplary life worthy of emulation, even if I die today I know I will be with Allah. My only worry is the money (Twelve Million Three Hundred Thousand Pounds) my husband deposited in a security & Finance company before his death. I have been deliberating over this issue within my self on what will happen on event of my death or if I become incapacitated.
"Will I disclose this information to my husband's brothers who are now Christian Converts"? NO!! After much deliberation I came to the final decision to use this money for the propagating of Islam and I have choosing you for this course.
I want you to use this money for building of Islamic schools, Mosques and helping of Muslim widows and children. Helping those who have no body to fend for them and pursing the course of Islam in your entire region. Please you should not divert this money from the purpose it is meant for. I would want you to signify your interest for this course so that I will give you all details and documents that will enable you claim the fund from the security and Finance company. You shall act on my behalf the general overseer and the next of kin to the fund.
You must respond urgently to this mail so as to make alternative arrangement, would you not be capable to handle the course of Allah. Please use my email below for all correspondence as I am always with my husband brothers and I wouldn't want them to know anything about this arrangement please!

May Allah be with you!
Hajia Jemila Mohammed.
