Subject: MY BEST GREETINGS.
My Dearest, I am Mrs. Sarah Amari. I am married to Ahmed Amari of blessed memory who worked with kuwait embassy in Madrid Spain for nine years, but lived in Nigeria before his untimely demise. Before he died in the year 2005, We were married for eleven years without a child. He died after a brief illness that lasted only four years. Before his death he was a very devoted Muslim and I was a devoted Christian by birth. I know that it will interest you to know that I am battling with both cancer and fibroid problems when my late husband was alive. Before his death, he deposited the sum of $38.5M (Thirty eight million, Five Hundred Thousand Dollars) here in Nigeria. Though what disturbs me most is my ill health, having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to either a Christian or Muslim organization or individual that will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct herein. I want this organization or individual to use this money in all sincerity to fund churches, mosques, orphanages, widows and also propagating the word of God and to ensure that the society upholds the views and beliefs of the holy book. As the holy book emphasizes so much on the giving of arms, charity and this has encouraged me in taking this bold step. I took this decision because I don't have any child. I don't want my husband hard earned money to be misused by people that call me an unbeliever. I don't want a Situation where this money will be used in an unholy manner hence the reason for taking this bold decision. I know that after death I will be with God in the highest and the most merciful one. I don't need any telephone communications but will only give you the contact of my lawyer James Okafor because he is the one who is going to assist you in making you the beneficiary of the funds in the Security Company. With God, I know that all things are possible and as soon as I receive your reply, I will now give you the contact details of my family lawyer for you to establish a contact with him in order for him to direct you on the next line of action. He shall also give you the contact of the bank here in Nigeria for you to establish a contact with them. Until I hear from you my dreams will rest squarely on your shoulders, may the Almighty God continue to guide and protect you Amen. However you can reach me immediately on my personal and private email for urgent response. Yours faithfully,Mrs. Sarah Amari.
