Claiming to be from Cote d Iviore (the Ivory Coast) here's another scammer using religious faith to suck people in. Well, to scam really gullible people - you'd have to be to fall for this scam. Claiming to be born again and dying with cancer, yet sitting on $5.5 million (ever wonder how many rich people there seem to be in the poorest countries? Odd, isn't it, unless they're all SCAMMERS!)
Well, apparently Mrs. Rita Robertson, widow of "Mr.Micheal Roberson who was a contractor with the government of CoteD'Ivoire before he died in the year 2004 after few days in the hospital" can't find any worthy people or charities in her own country, so she's reached out to you, a total stranger, across the ocean, to handle her millions. If that sounds plausible to you, we recommend that you give all your money away to a worthy cause today, because you're going to lose it soon anyway..

DEAR SIR/ Madam.
I am Rita Roberson from Liberia. I was married to Mr.Micheal Roberson who was a contractor with the government of CoteD'Ivoire before he died in the year 2004 after few days in the hospital.
The doctor said his death was as a result of food poison. We were married for so many years without a child. Before his death we were both born again Christian. Since his death I decided not to remarry or get a child outside my matrimonial home which the Bible is against.
When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of $5.5 Million with A secu rity company here in abidjan cote d ivoire. Presently this money is still in the custody of
the security company.
Recently, my Doctor told me that it is very likely i will not live longdue to cancer problem. Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to church,organization or good person that will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct here in.I want achurch,organization or good person that will use this fund for orphanages, widows and other people that need help and also propagating the word of God and to endeavor that the house of God is maintained.
The Bible made us to understand that"Blessed is the hand that giveth". ltook this decision because I don't have any child that will inherit this money and my husband relatives are not Christians not even good at all because they are the one that responsible for the death of my husband in other to have all my late husband's property and I don't want my husband's efforts to be used by those that conspired for his death.
I don't want them to know about this development and l know that With God all things are possible This is why I am taking this decision.Though it was very painful to hear this kind of news from my doctor but I am not afraid of death because I know where I am going.
I knowthat I am going to be in the bosom of the Lord. As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the security company I will also issue a letter of authorization to the company that will prove you the present beneficiary of this money.
I also want you, church or the organization to always pray for me because the lord is my only shepherd.My happiness is that I lived a life of a worthy Christian. Whoever that
Wants to serve the Lord must serve him in spirit and Truth.
Please always be prayerful all through your life. Any delay in your reply will give me room in sourcing another goodperson, church,organization for this same purpose. Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I Stated herein. Hoping to receive your response immedaitely.
Thanks and Remain blessed in the Lord.
l remain yours sister in Christ,
Mrs Rita Roberson
