Subject: PLEASE,GIVE THIS MAIL AN URGENT ATTENTION AND GOD BLESS YOU INDEED
MY DEAR Eric Verwaal,
I CEASE THIS OPPORTUNITY AT THIS MOST PAINFUL MOMENT OF MY LIFE IN A MIXED FEELINGS OF TEARS OF JOY AND PAINS. AM MR ETUK WILLY,A CAMEROUNIAN COCOA FARMER BASED IN GHANA.I AM CHAIRING A NON SUCCESSFUL NON GOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATION FOR THE FIGHT AGAINST THE MOST PAINFUL PLAGUE TO HUMAN RACE AIDS. I HAVE BEEN A PATIENT NOW FOR THE PAST 6 YEARS AND DOCTORS TOLD ME THAT I WILL DIE IN 9 MORE DAYS TIME
FROM TODAY. I HAVE INVESTED OVER LOCAL CURRENCY EQUIVALENT OF $3.8M USD IN THE FIGHT AGAINST THIS DECEASE. UNFORTUNATELY ALL THIS FUND SO HAVE BEEN WIDELY MISUSED BY VARIOUS COMMITTEES ENTRUSTED WITH THIS FUNDS.
NOW SINCE I HAVE LOST MY ONLY SON AND MY SWEET HEART (WIFE) TO THIS SAME ILLMENT I HAVE DECIDED TO USE ALL AT MY DISPOSAL TO FIGHT IT.TO THIS EFFECT I HAVE EARN-MAPPED OUT THE WHOLE FUND IN MY BUSINESS ACCOUNT
WITH ECOBANK INTERNATIONAL LOME TOGO IN ACCOUNT NUMBER u.t.b 4934109.Valued with interest at $9.3M,TO THIS FIGHT. SINCE THE FORMER FUNDS WERE MISMANAGED BY PEOPLE AROUND ME HERE, I PRAYED AND FASTED WITH THE HELP OF SOME OF THE PASTORS IN OUR CHURCH HERE OVER THE CASE AND THERE WAS A REVELATION AND INSTRUCTION THAT I
SHOULD GO INTO AN UNKNOWN LAND AND MAKE SOMEONE THE PILLAR OF THIS MISSION.
THEN IN ORDER TO GET A TRUSTED A FELLOW I WENT INTO ANOTHER ROUND OF PRAYERS IN WHICH I WAS ASKED TO GO TO THE NET AND SELECT FIVE ADDRESSES PRAY OVER THEM AND ENTRUST THE FUND TO THE ONE I WILL BE DIRECTED TO.
SO I DID AND I AM HERE REQUESTING FOR THE FOLLOWINGS FOR A SPEEDY RELATIONSHIP BEFORE MY DEATH.
1.EXERMINE YOUR SELF THAT YOU WILL NOT SELL THIS
TRUST.
2.SPEND ONLY 10% OF THE FUND FOR YOUR PRIVATE USE
ONLY.
3.PRAY ALL NIGHT OVER IT.
AFTER ALL THIS I WILL INTRODUCE YOU TO THE SECURITY & DEPOSIT FINANCE TRUST COMPANY WHERE I HAVE ALREADY DEPOSITED ALL MY FUNDS IN A TRUNK-BOX AS A FAMILY TREASURE FOR SECURITY REASON AND ALSO TO MY LAWYER SO
AS THE FUND WILL BE ENTRUSTED TO YOU AS MY NEXT OF KIN FOR THE CHAMPIONING OF THIS COURSE. NOTE: THE SECURITY COMPANY DOES NOT KNOW THE REAL CONTENT OF MY TRUNK-BOX BECAUSE IT WAS DEPOSITED AS MY
FAMILY TREASURE, NOT MONEY FOR SECURITY REASONS. PLEASE TAKE NOTE OF THIS POINT OKEY?
MAY GOD BLESS YOU AS YOU TOUCH THE LIFE OF OTHERS
AMEN.
BRO. ETUK WILLY.
