To:

Dear Friend,

My name is Mrs Angela Stone,a widow of late Mr. Frank Stone,former
owner of Petroleum and Gas company ,here in Ghana.I am 68years old,
suffering from long time cancer of the breast.From all indications my
condition is really deteriorating and it’s quite obvious thatI may not
live more than 4 months according to my doctors.This is because the
cancer stage has gotten to a very bad stage.i dont want your pity but
i need your trust.

My late husband died early last year from heart attack, and during the
period of our marriage we couldn’t produce any child. My late husband
was very wealthy and after his death,I inherited all his business and
wealth.The doctor has hinted me that I will not live for too long
again,so I have now decided to spread all my wealth,to contribute
mainly to the development of charity in Africa, America, Asia and
Europe.I am sorry if you are embarrased by my mail.

I found your e-mail address as a real Child of God for over a month
now that i have been praying to know if really you are working
according to the direction of God.And after all my fasting and prayer
i am convinced,and i have decided to contact you,but if for any reason
you find this mail offensive,you can ignore it and please accept my
appology.Before my late husband died he was a major oil tycoon,in
Ghana and deposited the sum of10million dollars (Ten million dollars)
in a Security company,some years ago,thats all i have left now,i need
you to collect this funds and distribute it yourself to charity.

So that when i die my soul can rest in peace.the funds will be
entirely in your hands and management.i hope God gives you the wisdom
to touch very many lives,and that is my main concern.20% of this money
will be for your time and effort,while 80% goes to charity.

God bless you.

Mrs.Angela Stone.

Subject: I write you most humbly
To: undisclosed-recipients

Dear friend,
I write you most humbly, keenly and above all with a high sense of
confidentiality !I consider you as one bestowed with a great love and
compassion for the downtrodden, the less-privileged as well as those
who are passing through the ugly side of life. In respect of my friend
of the blessed memory who was the pioneer founder and president of
Child Hope Foundation (CHF) whose demise took on in the year 2000. He
was also a Managing Director of an investment firm here in Ghana.
Child Hope Foundation (CHF) is a non-profit making, non-religious,
charitable, non governmental organization (NGO) dedicated to the
welfare and care of all children especially orphans, children with
single parents, children living with various forms of disabilities and
impairments.

Vis a vis the late pioneer founder and president of Child Hope
Foundation (CHF) whose surname eventually is same with yours, it is
therefore of germane necessity that I intimate you of the sum of
Eighty two million US dollars ($82M USD) belonging to him and
deposited with International Commercial Bank (ICB) Ltd. Ghana.

The ICB Ltd. of Ghana contacted me as the Director and at same time a
Trustee of the Foundation to recommend a next of kin who can have
access and control over these funds. By this means, I may wish that
you act as the legitimate next of kin so as to receive the said amount
into your account with the pledge that you will also remit back 60 %
of the total amount for the Child Hope Foundation (CHF) and have 40%
for yourself. However, you may feel free to extend to me any token
from your offer as an expression of goodwill and appreciation.

Besides there is a recurring grant in the amount of USD 500,000.00
yearly that has accrued to the Child Hope Foundation (CHF) that has
not been paid since the year 2001 and which is due for payment by the
18th December, 2008.This has been in effect since the year 2001 and
has amounted to the sum of US $4,000,000.00 to be cashed on the above
dated day this December, 2008.

Without further delay, indicate your disposition in this my
confidential appeal to enable us sustain our charity work for these
needy children around the world.
With your notification of interest on this development, few
requirements shall be made from you that will be sent to the bank to
enable them facilitate disbursement of the funds in to your account.

With the assurances of my regards and confidence!

Sincerely,
Rev. Nicole Hills

NB: Kindly reply me through my personal email address at
rv.nicolehills@gmail.com it is very important to reply only on this
email. Thanks for your cooperation
