From Mrs. Melinda Cruz Charitable Donation.

Dearest in Christ,

Greetings in the name of our lord Jesus Christ. I am Mrs. Melinda Cruz, an aging widow (69 years old) suffering from long time illness, I am currently admitted in a private hospital here in Abidjan Cote D’ Ivoire. I have some funds I inherited from my late loving husband, the sum of US$ $ 2 million dollars which he deposited with a bank in Abidjan.

I am looking for a honest and God fearing person that can use these funds for God’s work also creating a charitable organization for the less privileged, helping the elderly, the poor, also the war and HIV/AIDS victims, and 15% out of the total funds will be for your compensation for doing this work.

I found your email address from the internet and I decide to contact you after my prayers hoping that you will not betray the trust.

If you could be able to do this work, please email me back for more detail on how it could be done.
I wait for your positive reply.

Your Sister in Christ,

Mrs. Melinda Cruz.
