Greetings to you my good friend. My name is Mrs. Barbara Briggs. I am
terminally ill and have decided to donate my inheritance from my husband to
you. No doubt, you may wonder how I got to know you and your email/names and
what informed my decision to will my fortune to you, when I have lots of
people I know better to whom I should have willed my fortune here. Dear, you
have no cause to worry about these questions, for I mean no harm.

Regarding how I got your personal details, it is via the internet with the
help of the nurse assigned to attend to me in my private ward here in the
hospital. Because I cannot surf on my own due to partial stroke, it is the
nurse who surfs for me under my direction. On deciding to donate my fortune
to an individual, I instructed her to search from the net 15 individual
profiles at random and to conduct randomized sampling on the profiles and
whosoever the profile is chosen shall donate my inheritance to, hence your
profile was chosen. Therefore, I am donating my fortune to you partly
because of your selection random sampling experiment and because my husband
and I never had any child, despite all our attempts at child-bearing.

Again, it may interest you to know that I am 59 years old and have been
diagnosed of acute cancer for about 2 years now, shortly after the death of
my husband, which made me hypertensive and resulted in stroke. In my present
condition, life is without meaning to me and hope has since eluded me. Each
day I give my entire existence a thought, I feel over-powered by gloom and
despair and saw nothing but death lurking around. All these are my reasons
for deciding on using anything in my name for charity in which
co-incidentally you have been favoured as the beneficiary. I must tell you
that I was truly touched by God to take this decision/action

I decided not to donate my inheritance to the people I know around me but
instead a stranger, because if I did, upon my death, my husband's relatives
will engage the beneficiary in litigation (court case), claiming the
donation is without their consultation and consent and to that extent my
decision/action is null and void, and they may use their connections and
influence to reclaim or recover it, a thing I hate to imagine! My husband's
relatives are such that it will amount to betrayal of my late husband if I
let them have his hard-laboured fortune and enjoy it, despite how they
Mistreated my late husband under my very nose. God forbid that I will let
them reap where they did not saw. This is, again, part of the reasons for my
decision/action.

I will expect that you will as am about doing to you this day do to the
lives of others, for life is better lead on the philosophy of give and take.
I will advise that you don't see your windfall as avenue for pleasure spree
but should see it as an opportunity to build and grow your personal finances
to an enviable level, for both your benefit and the benefit of others.

I shall be undergoing major operations in less than a month from now and
have willed/donated the sum o****0,000.00 (Nine Hundred and Fifty Thousand
Great British Pounds) to your for personal use and for the purpose of
helping the needy and less-privileged around you.

Pls, note that, because I do not want my husband's relatives, who have spies
all around me, to know of the latest developments, coupled with my worsening
health condition, I shall not entertain phone calls and conversations. If
you are sure that you will use the donated fund as I have advised here,
contact my Lawyer, Barrister Lazrus Charles , with the specified email
