Subject: DEAR BELOVED
4 Old Church Street, Chelsea, SW3, England.
Here writes Madam Sharon David, suffering from cancerous ailment. I am
married to Engineer Silas David an Englishman who is dead. My husband
was into private practice all his life before his death. Our life
together as man and wife lasted for three decades without child. My husband
died after a protracted illness. My husband and I made a vow to uplift
the down-trodden and the less-privileged individuals as he had passion
for persons who can not help themselves due to physical disability or
financial predicament. I can adduce this to the fact that he needed a
Child from this relationship, which never came.
When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of 3 Million (THREE
Million Great Britain Pounds Sterling which were derived from his vast
estates and investment in capital market with a security company here
in UK. Presently, this money is still with the security company.
Recently, my Doctor told me that I have limited days to live due to the
cancerous problems I am suffering from. Though what bothers me most is the
stroke that I have in addition to the cancer. With this hard reality that
has befallen my family, and me I have decided to donate this fund to
you and want you to use this gift which comes from my husbands effort to
fund the upkeep of widows, widowers, orphans, destitute, the
down-trodden, physically challenged children, barren-women and persons who prove
to be genuinely handicapped financially.
It is often said that blessed is the hand that giveth. I took this
decision because I do not have any child that will inherit this money and
my husband relatives are bourgeois and very wealthy persons and I do not
want my husband's hard earned money to be misused or invested into ill
perceived ventures. I do not 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 with the Almighty when I eventually pass on. The
Almighty will fight my case and I shall hold my peace. I do not need any
telephone communication in this regard due to my deteriorating health and
because of the presence of my husband's relatives around me. I do not
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 in UK. I will also issue you a Letter of Authority that
will empower you as the original beneficiary of this fund. My happiness
is that I lived a life worthy of emulation. Please always be prayerful
all through your life. Please assure me that you will act just as I
have stated herein. Hope to hear from you soon and God bless you and
members of your family.
