My Dear Friend,
My name is Mrs.Claire Parkman am 79yrs old of
age, I was a good business merchant, I have several industrial
companies and good shares in various banks in the world. I spent all my
life on investment and corporate businesses. All the way, I lost my
husband and two beautiful kids in fatal accident that occurred in
November 10th 2005. I was a workaholic woman who was so bent on
business instead of caring about my family and people. Since then I had
difficulties of a protracted illness of lung cancer.
Later in
the year 2006 February I was sent a letter of medical check up, as my
personal Doctor testified I had a lung cancer, which will soon subdue
my life. I found it unease to survive, because a lot of investment
cannot be run and managed by me again. I quickly call up a pastor to
give me positive thinking on this solution, as my adviser. He
ministered to me to share my properties, wealth to motherless
baby/orphanage homes/people that need money for survival both student
that need money, business men for their investment and for future
endeavors. I am writing this mail to people who really need help from
me both student in college, to contact me urgently. So that I can make
available preparation on that especially women who are divorced, since
they cannot survive the mist of feeding themselves. Please contact me
and stop weeping. Probably, let me know what you really need the money
for, and if you can still help me to distribute money to nearest
orphanage and less privileged homes near your town. Now am so much with
God and born again now. May you be blessed, as you reach me, I will
give more information to you as I await your response immediately.
Best Regards ,
Mrs. Claire Parkman
