Really Now...

I got this really annoying and stupid email. How can people fall for this is beyond me. They should know better to think that people don't just go around giving out money, Christian or not...

Dearest in Lord,

My name is Mrs Richain Luis nationality of Kuwait. I am married to late Mr James Luis who worked with Kuwait embassy in IvoryCoast for nine years before he died in the year Octorber 2006. We were married for twenty years with a child. He died after a the illness that lasted for long four days. Before his death we were both born again Christians. When my late husband was alive we deposited the sum of $7 Million (seven Million U.S. Dollars) with one of good banks here in Cote d'Ivoire. Presently, this money is still with the bank. Recently my Doctor told me that I would not last for the next three months due to my cancer problem. Though what disturbs me most is my stroke.

Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to church or better still a Christian individual that will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct here in, I want a person or church that will use this fund to churches, orphanages, research centres and widows propagating the word of God and to ensure that the house of God is maintained. The Bible made us to understand that blessed is the hand that giveth. I took this decision because I have a child that will inherit this money but my son can not carry out this work only because i and my late husband decide to use some of the money to work for God and live some for our son Dennis to have a better live.

Our son is just 19 year old now and been grow up in africa, he had low mentality and my husband´s relatives are not Christians and I don´t want my family hard earned money to be misused by unbelievers. I don't want a situation where this money will be used in an ungodly manner. Hence the reason for taking this bold decision.I am not afraid of death hence I know where I am going to. I know that I am going to be in the bosom of the Lord. Exodus 14 VS 14 says that the lord will fight my case and I shall hold my peace. I want your telephone communication in this regard because of my health because of the presence of my family relatives around me always, I don't want any of my husband family relatives to recieve this money. With God all things are possible.

As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the Finance/bank. I will also issue you a letter of authority that will empower you as the new beneficiary of this fund. I want you and the church to always pray for me because the lord is my shepherd. My happiness is that I live 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 for a church or Christian individual for this same purpose. Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I stated here. Expecting to hearing from you on this private, mailbox.

Remain blessed in the name of the Lord.

Mrs Richain Luis

I thought that their child died?

Misused by unbelievers?

La-di-da-di-da.

Such nonsense.

I thought the Bible teaches them to love their enemies too? And now she doesn't want to give the money to her husband's relatives?

Absurd!!!

Ikanbilis: Seems that GMail didn't manage to screen this off for mine. So annoying...

Calvin: I have my reservations when it comes to religion. Many things in it don't make sense.

King Bitch: Where did the Queen go? Be as obscene as you like, I don't mind. :)
