Hello Dear,
Compliment of the season, I am Ex Mrs. Fatima Setia Larsen, now Mrs. Sophia Heaton (JP), A widow to the Late Sheik Mohammed Heaton, I am 65 years of age, I am now a new Christian convert, suffering from long time cancer of the breast which series of proffessional doctors from deffrent countries have tried all their effort but situation remain the same. From all indications my condition is really deteriorating and it's quite obvious that I won't live long according to my doctors. This is because the cancer stage has gotten to a very bad stage.
My late husband was killed during the U.S raid against terrorism in Afghanistan when he traveled to Afghanistan to monitor a Hospital/Humanitarian Foundation (HHF) he was setting up for the benefit of the Afghan masses as of then, whose majority, and 99 percent of them are Muslims/ Islamic scholars and loyalists. During the period of our marriage we couldn't produce any child. My late husband was very wealthy and after his death, I inherited all his businesses and wealth, and when i noticed that my condition is not improving rather it gets worsen by the day, i decided to divide part of this wealth, to contribute to Charity and the development of the churches and other organizations.
I was much more confused about your full transparency of Gods fearing personnel as I got your contact through a close associate of yours which I prayed over it fervrantly. I am willing to donate the fund to you for charity, the less privileged, churches, orphanages and widows, Propagating the word of God and to ensure that the house of God is maintained. I took this decision upon myself because I don't have any child that will inherit this money and my husband relatives are not Christians and I don't want my husband's hard earned money to be misused by unbelievers.
Because I have come to find out that wealth acquisition without Christ is vanity upon vanity. Please I want you to note that; this fund is deposited with a Security Firm Abroad for security purpose. and upon my instruction, you will file in an application for the transfer of the fund in your name which i registered as a gold bar with the security company Lastly, I honestly pray that this money when transferred will be used for the said purpose. May the Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you and your family.
Await Your Urgent Reply, any delay in your reply will give me room in sourcing for another source or Christian individual for this same purpose.
Reply urgent through my private email Id: for security reason.
Remain Blessed
Mrs. Sophia Heaton (JP).
