AND KIND MAN, DR.ARTHONEY MARTINS. WE BOTH STRUGGLED AND WORKED HARD AND THE ALMIGHTY GOD BLESSED US ABUNDANTLY WITH RICHES. HE WAS A DEALER IN GOLD, DIAMONDS AND TANTALITE.
I AM NOW OLD AND SICK WITHOUT A HUSBAND AND CHILDREN. THIS HAS MADE ME UNHAPPY. I HAVE NOT RE-MARRIED DUE TO THE FACT THAT I WANT TO CHERISH MY HUSBAND'S MEMORIES. FOR 9MONTHS NOW I HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY SICK. I AM PRESENTLY IN HOSPITAL SUFFERING FROM CANCER AND I HAD A STROKE WHICH HAS AFFECTED MY
SPEECH. THE LEFT SIDE OF MY BODY IS PARALYSED. THE DOCTORS SAY I HAVE A FEW MONTHS LEFT TO LIVE. I CAN ONLY MOVE MY RIGHT HAND, AND I AM ABLE TO SEND YOU THIS MASSAGE WITH AN ASSISTANCE OF A SISTER NURSE (SISTER STELLA) WITH OUR DOCTORS PRIVATE COMPUTER.I HAVE LITTLE TIME SO I HAVE COMMITTED IT
TO SPREADING MY WEALTH TOWARDS BETTER HEALTH CARE FOR MANKIND BECAUSE THIS WILL BE WHAT MY HUSBAND WANTED.

SPECIALISED SOURCE AND BY THE LEADING OF HOLY SPIRIT.
BEFORE THE DEATH OF MY HUSBAND HE DEPOSITED US$10.5 MILLION IN CURRENCY IN A METALIC TRUNK BOX WITH AN INSURANCE AND SECURITY COMPANY HERE IN COTED'IVOIRE. THE METALIC TRUNK BOX WILL BE KINDLY DELIVERED TO YOU BY THE INSURANCE COMPANY AFTER THE APROVAL OF YOUR NAME AS MY BONIFIED NEW
BENEFICIARY.(DIPLOMATIC COURRIER DELIVERY) BEING THE SAFEST MEANS OF TRANSFERING HUGE SUM
ALL DOCUMENTS AND PAPERWORKS ARE WITH ME. I WANT YOU TO TAKE CUSTODY OF THE DEPOSIT, AND USE THE MONEY TO BUILD AN ORPHANAGE IN YOUR COUNTRY. YOU WILL NAME IT AFTER MY HUSBAND NAME (DR.ANTHONEY MARTINS ORPHANAGE HOME) AND THE REST OF THE FUND WILL BE USED IN SUPORTING THE WORKS OF ALMIGHTY GOD
LIKE BUILDING HUASE OF GOD AND HELPING THE NEEDY.
GIVING TO THE POOR AND LESS PRIVILEDGED ONCES IS WHAT BEING A CHRISTIAN,THANKS BE TO ALMIGHTY GOD THAT I AM BURN AS A CHRISTIAN.
ALL I NEED FROM YOU IS YOUR ASSURANCE THAT YOU WILL USE THIS FUNDS JUDICIOUSLY AS STATED IN THIS MESSAGE I AM NOT ABLE TO USE MY LAPTOP AS OFTEN AS I WILL LIKE DUE TO THE ADVICE GIVEN ME BY THE DOCTOR. THIS IS ALL FOR NOW. PLEASE WHEN ONCE YOU ENDEAVOUR TO DO ACCORDING TO MY INSTRUCTION DONT
