Have you received an email from "Mary Parker",
who says "It is by the grace of God that I received Christ, having known the truth; I had no choice than to do what is lawful and just in the sight of God for eternal life and in the sight of man for witness of God & His Mercies and glory upon my life"?
If THAT isn't enough to convince you that a scam is about to follow, just read
on for the convoluted sob story of one misery
after another, along with a healthy dose of gibberish, spelling errors, terrible
gram, syntax and punctuation, not exactly befitting an extremely wealthy person. And now, poor bereaved
"Mary Parker", needs YOUR help to ensure that the fortune "from being confiscated". Odd that they'd pick a total stranger,
in a foreign
country to trust their money to, don't you think?
Of course, it is a scam. Don't reply to it.
Dear Beloved
It is by the grace of God that I received Christ, having known the truth;
I had no choice than to do what is lawful and just in the sight of God for
eternal life and in the sight of man for witness of God & His Mercies and
glory upon my life.
I am Mrs. Mary Parker, the wife of Mr.Robert Parker,both of us, are
citizens of the united state of America. my husband worked with the
Chevron/Texaco in Russia for twenty years before he died in the year 2003.We
were married for ten years without a child. My Husband died after a brief
illness that lasted for only four days. Before his death we both got
born-again as dedicated Christians. Since his death I decided not to
re-marry or get a child outside my matrimonial home which the Bible is
strongly against. When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of 7.5
Million Pounds (Seven Million Five Hundred Thousand Pounds) with a Bank in
Europe.
Presently, this money is still with the Bank and the management just
wrote me as the beneficiary that our account has been DORMANT and if I, as
the beneficiary of the funds, do not re-activate the account; the funds will
be CONFISCATED or I rather issue a letter of authorization to somebody to
receive it on my behalf (note that you need to activate this account) as I
can not come over. Presently, I'm in a hospital in Russia where I have been
undergoing treatment for esophageal cancer. I have since lost my ability to
talk and my doctors have told me that I have only a few weeks to live. It is
my last wish to see this money distributed to charity organizations and NGO
anywhere in the World in helping human race.
Because relatives and friends have plundered so much of my wealth since
my illness, I cannot live with the agony of entrusting this huge
responsibility to any of them. Please, I beg you in the name of God to help
me Stand-in as the beneficiary and collect the Funds from the Bank.
I want a person that is God-fearing who will use this money to fund
churches,orphanages and widows propagating the word of God and to ensure
that the house of God is maintained. The Bible made us to understand that
blessed is the hand that giveth. I took this decision because I don't have
any child that will inherit this money and my husband's relatives are not
Christians and I don't want my husband's hard earned money to be misused by
unbelievers. I don't want a situation where this money will be used in an
ungodly manner. Hence the reason for taking this bold decision. I am not
afraid of death since I know where I am going to.
I know that I am going to be in the bossom of the Lord. Exodus 14 VS 14:
says that the Lord will fight my case and I shall hold my peace. I don't
need any telephone communication in this regard because of my soundless
voice and presence of my husband's relatives around me always. I don't want
them to know about this development.
I await your quick response to this mail as this is my last wish to see
this funds transferred before my Death.
Please my beloved for further communication on how we are going to
conclude this, reach me on my private mail:

Remain Blessed
Your Sister in Christ,
Mrs. Mary Parker
