FROM MRS. MARLENA L. HIMES.
With all sincerity and humility, it is with deep pains I write you this
message of wishful assistance to my predicament,I am Mrs Marlena L. Himes
undergoing medical treatment in cape town south africa,#50 kloof street cape
town 8001 south Africa,I am 68 years old,I am deaf and suffering from a long
time cancer of the breast which also affected my brain,from all indication
my conditions is really deteriorating and it is quite obvious that,
according to my doctors they have advised me that i may not live for the
next two months,this is because the cancer stage has gotten to a very bad
stage.
I was brought up from a motherless babies home was married to my late
husband for twenty years without a child, died in a fatal motor accident
Before his death we were true Christians.
Since his death I decided not to re-marry,I sold all my inherited belongings
and deposited all the sum of $1.6million dollars with a Security
Company.Presently, this money is still with them and the management just
wrote me as the true owner to come forward to receive the money for keeping
it so long or rather issue a letter of authorization to somebody to receive
it on my behalf since I can not come over because of my illness or they get
it confisticated.
Presently, I'm with my laptop in a hospital where I have been undergoing
treatment for cancer of the lungs. I have since lost my ability to talk and
my doctors have told me that I have only a few months to live.
It is my last wish to see that this money is invested to any organisation of
your choice and distributed each year among the charity organization,the
poor and the motherless babies home where I come from.I want you God
fearing, to also use this money to fund churches, orphanages and widows,I
took this decision, before I rest in peace because my time will soon be up.
Lastly, my happiness is that I lived a life worthy of emulation. Whosoever
that wants to serve the almighty must serve him with all his heart and in
and soul and also in truth. Please always be prayerful all though you’re
life. Any delay in your reply will give me room in sourcing for an
individual for this same purpose. Please assure me that you will act
according to my specification herein.
As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the Security
Company.I will also issue you a letter of authority that will prove you as
the new beneficiary of my fund. Please assure me that you will act
accordingly as I stated herein. Hoping to hearing from you soon.
I wait for your reply
Yours in Christ
Mrs. Marlena L. Himes.
