I hope this message finds you well. I understand that you may feel uncertain since we do not know each other personally, but I kindly ask you to read this message with an open heart. My name is Mrs. Maria Benson, and I am writing to you from France.
I am reaching out due to the urgency of my current situation and with deep sorrow in my heart. I was married to the late Dr. Nathan Benson, who worked with the France Embassy in the United Kingdom for nine years before his passing in 2017. We were married for eleven years and had no children. He died after a brief illness that lasted only five days.
Before his death, my husband deposited the sum of (Twelve Million Three Hundred Thousand Pounds) in a bank. The funds were originally generated from the exportation of gold and have remained in the bank since his passing.
Recently, my doctor informed me that I may not survive beyond seven months due to cancer complications, in addition to my ongoing struggle with stroke. Knowing my condition and having no family members to rely on, I have decided to entrust this mission to a trustworthy individual who will carry out my final wishes.
I intend for you to receive 50% of the total amount for your personal use, while the remaining 50% should be dedicated to charitable work, helping the less privileged and maintaining the house of God.
I am doing this in the hope that God will forgive my sins and accept my soul. This illness has caused me great suffering, and I wish to do something meaningful before my time comes.
Upon receiving your response and assurance that you will act according to my wishes, I will provide you with the bank’s contact details and instruct my lawyer to issue an authority letter naming you as the beneficiary.
Please kindly reply at your earliest convenience so we may proceed accordingly.
Best Regards,
Mrs. Maria Benson
