My Dearest beloved
Please endeavor to use it for the children of God. with warm hearts I offer
my friendship, and my greetings, and I hope this letter meets you in good
time. It will be surprising to you to receive this message from me since
you do not know me personally. However, I am sincerely seeking your
confidence in this project, which I propose with my free mind and as a
person of integrity from God.
My name is Mrs.Martha Sinclair I was married to my late husband
Mr.RobertSinclair who was a contractor with the Federal Government
for twenty years
and we lived together until my husband died in a fatal motor accident .
Since his death I decided not to re-marry, I sold all my inherited
belongings and deposited all the money with a bank.
Presently, this money is still with the bank and I have not operated the
account for long now due to my illness.
Presently, I'm with my laptop in Hospital, where I have been under going
treatment for cancer of the lungs for over one year. Recently, my doctors
told me that I have only a few months to live so I quickly called up a
pastor to give me positive thinking on this solution, He ministered to me to
share my wealth to motherless baby/orphanage homes/people that need money
for survivor.
It is my last wish to see that some part is distributed among the charity
organizations, the poor and the motherless babies home and some percentage
is for devoted individual that will utilize this money the way I wish. I
took this decision, because my time will soon be up and I do not want the
bank to inherit the money if I eventually die.
As soon as I receive your reply I will issue you a letter of authority
through my attorney which will empower you as the new beneficiary of my fund
so far that you will give me assurance that you will do my wish.
Lastly, I want you and your community to be praying for me as regards to my
entire life and my health because I have to come and find out since my
spiritual rebirth lately that wealth acquisition without Jesus Christ in
one's life is vanity upon vanity.
Until I hear from you my dreams will rest squarely on your shoulders,may
the Almighty God continue to guide and protect you Amen.
Yours in Christ,
Sister Martha Sinclair
