Subject: Re: Promise not to betray my trust
My dear,
I know it will be a great surprise to you reading from me today but
consider this a divine intervention. My Name is Mrs. Petra Woods I am
78 Years old from Oklahoma United States of America and reside at
Brisbane Queensland Australia. I have to be brief as I am very weak at
the moment. I had a Joint business with my Late Husband who Died in a
Terrorist Attack along with my lovely Daughter in United State of
America, on that fateful day I felt that the world has come to an end
but I manage to live with the fate.I managed my late husband’s
investments and contracts until my present Medical Condition
developed. Last year I experience restlessness and sleepless nights so
my Doctor sent me on a general Medical Checkup which I was finally
diagnosed to have cancer of the blood cells ( Leukemia ) and now
infected with the coronavirus. Since I was not able to manage my
multiple Investments anymore, I rather donate my money to the less
privileged, orphanage homes, and the Church than allow it been
confiscated by government or people that I cannot trust.
I deposited a total of $6,500.000.00 (Six million five hundred
thousand Great Britain Pounds) in cash with the Security Company in
London after selling my properties in United Kingdom. The Doctors says
that I will die soon as my health is now critical in the Hospital, I
can not travel now or utilize the money so I will like you to help me
Claim the Money at the Security Company in London, take 50 % for your
troubles and been there for me during this time of difficulty and use
the rest to change the lives of the less privileged in the society. I
am writing this letter to you because my innermost spirit revealed to
me that you can help, use my money for the work of Humanity and assist
the less privileged in the society, motherless baby homes/orphanages,
Widows, people that need money to survive and Basic Needs in this
pandemic period. I know that my story will sadden your heart but my
new found life has made me understand that even if we die in this
physical flesh, What matters is life after death. let me have your
word to use the money wisely as I grew up in an orphanage home too. I
will let you know how to reach the Security company in UK and
information on how to Claim it as soon as I have your word and promise
not to betray my trust. I await your response as soon as possible with
your full name, address and telephone number so that I will hand over
the documents for the claim to you before I pass unto glory, please
reply urgently to this email and may you be blessed,
Best Regards
Mrs.Petra Woods
(Mother Petra)
