Subject: REPLY ME ASAP..............
Greetings.Greetings to you and your family in the name of God,in my search for a reliable and God fearing person and having gotten your contact through prayers and pains taking efforts via searching i made on the internet on my bed side. Presently, I'm in a hospital where I have been undergoing treatment for Oesophagi Cancer .Though its a sad and long story but I will cut it short for your quick and easy understanding. I am Anita Smith (Mrs), widow to Late Mr. Clement Smith, former the chairman of Texaco Oil Company in Uk from 2001 till 2005 when he died of an auto accident. It all happened on the 13th day of June 2005 when my late husband was travelling for a board meeting scheduled with his board of directors in Wales here in UK when he had a fatal accident on his way to the meeting. Before his death he made a vow to use his wealth for the down trodden,orphanages and the less privileged in the society. Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to an individual or better still a God fearing person who will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct here in. I want an individual that will use this fund and provide succor to poor and indigent persons, orphanages, and widows and for the propagating peace. Then the fund in question is the sum of Us$25Million Dollars was deposited safety in the financial instiution by my late husband. With do respect of your humble assistance which will carry on in this transaction i have directed to offer you 30% of the total sum, while 60% will be for the succor to poor and indigent persons, orphanages, and widows and for the propagating peace, 10% will be for all expenses which will occur during the processing of the transfer of the money into your account.As soon as you assured me that ou are willingly to assist me out in this transaction, i will kindly send you all the evdience proves concerning the existence the fund in the Financial institution. It is very clearly to update you that i will send you the view photograph of my first surgical operation. I took this decision because I do not have any child that will inherit this money and my husband relatives are not inclined to helping poor persons and I do not want my husband's hard earned money to be misused or spent in the manner in which my late husband did not specify. I do not want a situation where this money will be used in an ungodly manner.What is required of you is your honesty, trust and sincerity. Any delay in your reply will give me room in sourcing for another individual for this same purpose.May God Almighty bless you.Anita Smith (Mrs)
