Subject: FROM REV PETER REPLY TO revpetergeorge@yahoo.com
Dearest friend in the Lord,
It took me time and the divine intervention of the Lord to write you this m=
ail, as we have never had any correspondence before. My name is Rev. Father=
Peter George a Catholic priest, I am very much interested in a relationshi=
p with you for our mutual benefits as I have access to what is needed but l=
ack the experience and not in a position to perfect its use.=20
There is an urgent need for me to contact you as I recently have been grant=
ed an opportunity to have access to US$8,500,000.00 (Eight Million Five Hun=
dred Thousand United States Dollars Only). Access to this fund is made avai=
lable by a woman, who happens to be a member of my parish. She is well know=
n in this community and aside being a major real estate agent she is a magn=
et in environmental management and was a licensed oil merchant before now.=
=20
Unfortunately she has been living and struggling with breast cancer for alm=
ost 2 years now. Though she is unmarried, she has a 12year old daughter and=
I have been responsible for her care since the outbreak of her horrible di=
lemma. She has been through a first operation, and though she is to undergo=
a final operation within the next few days, the doctors have not given her=
much of a chance to live. She is not aware of this fact and she stills rem=
ains hopeful that something positive can be done in her case. Based on my l=
ast discussion with her yesterday afternoon on the future of her daughter s=
hould she not be so lucky, she insisted that the fund should be invested.
Unfortunately I'm definitely not in a position to run things, which is why =
I seek your assistance in taking control of managing the fund. I have resol=
ved with her on an agreement that will be drawn up by you on a yearly charg=
e that will be paid to you for taking control and managing the fund while h=
alf of the fund will be given for the development of cancer treatment centr=
e while the rest sum will remain with you for the up keep of her daughter. =
I wish you could be of assistance to this course and I'd like to add that s=
ometimes I receive unsolicited mails, so I hope my mail doesn=E2=80=99t com=
e as an embarrassment to you, but if it does please kindly accept my apolog=
ies. you to get back to me via this email address revpetergeorge@yahoo.com
Awaiting your response,=20
Yours in Christ,=20
Rev Peter George
