Subject: Thank you and May Allah be with you
Mrs. Halima Idris
Rue De Rochester ML
B.P. 34, Bamako, Mali.
Salaam Alakun
Please forgive me? If this message comes to you as a surprise I was divinely inspired to pick your name among other names found in the Internet database, after series of prayers and God direction. I am Mrs. Halima Idris, a citizen of Mali. I am a trader by profession. But now I am undergoing medical treatment in Cromwell Hospital London UK. I was married to Dr. Abdullah Idris who worked with the Indonesia Embassy in Mali for nine years. We went on vacation to Indonesia but unfortunately we were there when the Tsunami incidence happened. My husband died in the process while we are trying to escape for survival. The trauma over the death of my husband caused a heart attack on me.
However, before we went on this Vacation, my late husband deposited the sum of US$4.6 Million with a deposit firm in Indonesia, but nobody knew about the money apart from me and my late husband. Now I am down with heart problem. Before this time I have been undergoing routine kidney checkup until last month my doctor informed that I have developed a kidney enlargement and the complication have resulted into an injury.
Right now I am in the hospital waiting for a kidney transplant on me. The surgeon said that my chance of survival is 50/50. Even though I may not die, I don’t take things for granted. This is why I decided to seek for a worthy fellow that can handle this money for establishment of Heart Care Foundation in case I did not survive this operation because I don’t have any child that will inherit the money.
If you feel you are worthy enough to make yourself available in this project, let me know immediately you read my mail. GOD will surely provide you the power and strength to accomplish this project.
I am waiting for your urgent response.
Thank you and remain blessed.
Yours sincerely,
Mrs. Halima Idris
