A Charity Donation From A Passionate Heart To You.
>From Dr. Gunther Williams.
Date:29/08/2008.
Hello,
I am contacting you based on trust and wish that you will give me back the
trust I have given to you. I am not looking for anything else but for
someone with the fear of God and one who understands the spiritual
implications of handling money meant for the propagation of Gods work.
I am Dr. Gunther Williams of Pisam Clinique here in Abidjan the capital city
of Cote d'ivoire and I have an old man with a long time brain cancer
problem.His name is Mr.Lorna Reist and 67 years old man also a Switzerland
citizen.
He was working here in our country with the United Nations but unfortunately
for him, he ran into the hands of the rebels with his wife and his only son
, all were killed during the crises. As at the moment Mr.Lorna Reist may not
live for more that two months. He has gone for his first major operation and
survived it and in showing appreciation to God for the survival in the
operation he now decide to give part of his wealth for the promotion and
propagation of God's work in the area of Charity.
$7.000,000,00 (seven million united states dollars) is his donation to
humanity and this money are meant for all motherless babies, all and sundry
found in destitute homes and widows.
This is a Charity donation from a passionate heart. Contact me via email if
you are sincere enough so that I will connect you to his attorney who is in
the custody of the depository documents in the bank and please do not reply
me if you have the intention of using this fund in an ungodly way other than
evangelism and affecting lives.
Even though I have not met you in person before but I got a message as I
looked at your mail ID that you will not betray a trust reposed on you. I
will inform his Family Lawyer so that he can arrange for the release of the
funds to you. Your most confidentiality in this matter will be appreciated
until the task is accomplished, as I don't want anything that will
Jeopardize His last wish, due to the fact that He do not want relatives or
family members standing in the way of His last wish.
Thanks and may God bless you; I do hope to hear from you soon and please do
not forget to send your Telephone number, Your Age, your marital Status,
Your Occupation and Your Nationality.
Yours in Christ,
Dr. Gunther Williams
For Evangelist Lorna Reist.
