Beloved,
I decided to write to you in confidence that you will not betray or
disappointment my wish, Please kindly be honest to me, My name is Mrs.Sofia
Shaw, a citizen of south Africa formerly from Holland, I am a dying woman
who had decided to donate what I have for Charity works.
I am 77 years old and was diagnosed with cancer six years ago after the
death of my husband. I have no child of mine and only see the less
privileged as my successors, I have been touched to donate from what I
have inherited from my late husband for good work rather than allow his
relatives to lavish my husband's hard earned money, because I have no much
time with me again, each day that passes by I am afraid to die, but life
gives me no choice but to answer the call, my prayer each day is to have a
place in Heaven. I have suffered a lot as a result of this incurable
sickness.
I want you to assist me in this humanitarian project, because I only want a
foreigner from outside our country and not here in South Africa to have my
late husband earn money and do as I wish, and I don't even want my late
husband relative to be aware when and where the said fund transfer to and
that is the reason why I need your help most now am on sick concern bed
and my last surgery will be soonest which I believe not to survive.
As I lay on my sick bed, I want you to help me in carrying out my last wish
on earth to the less privilege in your country or community, I want to WILL
a total sum of $5.5 Million USD to you which I want you to use 70% of it to
build a homeless home or school in your city and the rest for yourself and
your family. You might be wondering why I cant delegate this task to any
charity foundation, the fact is that I found must African charity
foundation for less privileges are owned and established to enrich the
owners and hundreds of millions are being donated to this homes but still
the children in those homes are not well taken care of.
Recently, the doctors told me I might not live longer than 6 months after
they diagnosed me of chronic/acute lymphocytic or myeloid[Leukemia]
Leukemia which is a blood cancer in both the bone marrow and in blood
itself, leukemia cells crowd out normal blood cells leading to serious
bleeding and infection. I have being undergoing blood transfusion, I will
not blame God for all this misfortune ,but all I pray is to have a place in
Heaven.
Beloved, I am pouring my heart to you in confidence that you will not
betray or disappointment my wish, you dont have to worry about anything ,
My late husband was a miner at kruger gold company and trades on gold a
geologist by profession died in 2012. The money I am willing to you was
incomes from long years of hard working.
I wait to hear from you.
My Regards.
Mrs.Sofia Shaw
