To: Harriet Tubman
From: Miss Donna
My dearest friend Harriet Tubman, thanks for your quick responds to my message, and i am very sorry for getting back to you late, it was due to my present health condition in the hospital now, as i have not been able to face my computer. I know how you might feel about this message, but i want you to remember that everything is possible with god as him alone knows why he chooses you as the rightful person to have my fund. i want to assure you that you will have nothign to loose at the end.
I instructed my personal doctor, John K to email you on my behalf due to my illness at the moment, because right now, I can hardly face the computer nor answer telephone calls. I want you to know that it is in the spirit of god in me that directed me to choose you as the only beneficiary of this funds I have left in my account, for you to help the poor people in your home country. I also want you to believe and understand with your whole heart that this is real and has nothign to do with scam, as I don’t really want anything from you in return except your prayers.
My name is Miss Donna Brown; I'm a 82 years old woman. I was a merchant and owned two businesses in Dubai. I was also married without children. Upon that i found out that i have blood cancer of the breast. My Husband failed to a strange illness, when he discovered that I have blood cancer which took his life. And ever since I got this strange illness of mine, I strongly devoted my life to god and I have been willing my funds to a charity organizations around the world, and some individuals that the spirit of god leads me to.... Please note that the Total amount that I am willing to you is $12.500.000.00usd and 60% of the fund, is going to the charity organizations project, while the remaining 40% of the fund is to be use in supporting your family financially, as directed by the spirit of god in me.
This is god’s blessing to you and myself too. Before I got this illness, my business and concern for making money was all I live for. I never really cared about other values in life. But since the death of my Husband and the arrival of this strange illness, I have found a new desire to assist helpless families and motherless homes. Presently, I’m in a hospital where I have been undergoing treatment, and my last wish is to see that the remaining $12,5000,00usd funds left in my account is willed to a god fearing person before I die. Because relatives and friends have plundered so much of my wealth since my illness, I cannot live with the agony entrusting this huge responsibilithy to any of them.
I willed this money to you with all my heart and I believe is the will of god for me to meet you in good faith. Please I want you to be praying for me because this illness is getting worst, as I am seeing it, is too much on my now, but keep on praying for me to be in the right hand side of god almighty when I die. I have authorized my account Officer in the Colonia Finance security company London, where I have deposited the money unclaimed, to deliver the remaining $12.500.000.00usd left to you, and i want you to start up a good orphanage home for the lesser privileges in your country immediately you receive the fund, as that is the only thing that will pleas my spirit and soul. Attach is a copy of my picture in the hospital bed.
Do get back to me immediately you receive this message for more information on how to have the fund for the orphanage charity project. More importantly, please keep this transaction very secret confidential to yourself for security reason, until you receive the fund in your disposal, as i don't want any other person to be aware of this very transaction accept you, my personal account officer and i for security reason.
Please furnish to me your information as listed bellow, so that i will mail it to the delivering company, for self keeping, and proper identification of you. Attach is a copy of my photo in the hospital.
Thank you i look forward to hear you from soon god bless.
Additional Thoughts:
If you made it all the way through that message, I commend you. This is a common tactic I see from these people. They throw oodles of information at you, but you are left remembering that you might “get” 12.5 million for your efforts. When I re-read this, I get a migraine.
This is also the first image I received in this correspondence. In case you missed it, Donna felt well enough to mention that she attached her picture from the hospital not once, but twice.
