Subject: Mrs Nancy Wilford.
Dear Beloved,
My name is Mrs Nancy Wilford,naturally,this letter might come to you as a
surprise, since we have not met before it is by the grace of God that this
ocurred,knowing the truth and that the truth shall set me free.Having known
the truth, i had no choice than to do what is lawful and rightful in the
sight of God for eternal life and in the sight of man for witness of God's
mercy and glory upon my life,i have the pleasure to share my life history
briefly with you which i have prayed over, God revealed to me that you are
genuine hearted and can do this work. I am the above named person from
United Kingdom, I am married to Dr.Aloysius Han wilford who worked with
Netherlands Embassy in Togo for nine years before his death in the plane
crash of German Airlines which crashed on November 31 2006.
we were married for eleven years without a child,before his death, we were
both born again christians.When my late husband was alive he deposited the
sum of Sixty Million, Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($60.5M) with Barclays
Bank Plc London. I have decided to give alms to charity organizations since
I want this to be one of the last good deeds I may do on earth,so far I have
distributed money to some charity organizations in U.A.E, London and
Ireland,now that my health has deteriorated so badly I cannot do this myself
any more.Presently,this money is still with the above mentioned bank in
London,the bank management wrote me only last week informing me as the wife
of the depositor to come forward to receive the money or issue a Letter of
Authorisation to somebody to receive it on my behalf since i cannot come
over there due to my illness.
I am with my laptop in a hospital where i have been undergoing treatment for
cancer which my doctor said i may not last for the next four months based on
his medical report,so it is my last wish to see this money distributed to
charity organizations,churches because our relatives have plundered so much
of our wealth after my husband's death and my illness, I cannot live with
the agony of entrusting this huge responsibility to any of them,please,i beg
you in the name of God to help me utilize the above mentioned funds and its
interest by distributing it accordingly. Having known my condition i wish to
give this fund to a church or a christian individual that will utilize this
money the way i am going to instruct herein,i want a person that is God
fearing,someone that will use this money on churches,orphanages etc to
propagate 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 don't have any child that will inherit this money,my
husband's relatives are not christians and i don't want this hard earned
money to be misused by unbelievers, I don't want a situation where this
money will be used in an ungodly manner. My happiness is that i lived a life
of a worthy christian,so 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,whoever
that wants to serve the lord must serve him in spirit and truth,do always be
prayerful all through your life. I don't need any telephone communication in
this regard because of my health and the presence of my husband's relatives
around me always,I don't want them to know about this development while any
delay in your reply will give me room in searching for another church or
christian individual for this same purpose.
I look forward to know your arrangenments regarding your assistance and to
assure me that you will act accordingly as i stated herein. I want you and
the church to always pray for me while hoping to hear from you soonest.
Yours sister in the Lord,
Mrs Nancy Wilford.
