Mrs. Elizabeth Williams Donation Scams

Online users, be aware of fake email messages like the one below that are being sent by scammers to potential victims, which claim that a so-called Mrs. Elizabeth Williams will donate millions of dollars to them before she dies of cancer in a few weeks. Every month, scammers randomly send out thousands of those fake email messages to trick potential victims in sending them personal information, and will subsequently ask them to send money in order to receive their so-called donation. But, once the scammers receive their victims' personal and money, they will disappear leaving their victims disappointed and hundreds or thousands of dollars broke.

This is why online users should never send their personal information to strangers via unsolicited email message, or send money to strangers who have contacted them via email claiming they are entitled to thousands or millions of dollars in donation.

Dearest in Christ,

I am Mrs. Elizabeth Williams from Bahrain. I am married to Mr. Jerry Williams who worked with Bahrain embassy in Ivory Coast for eleven years before he died in the year 2015. We were married for Eighteen year without a child. He died after a brief illness that lasted for only four days. Before his death we were both born again Christian.

Since his death I decided not to remarry because our home was on God’s foundation. I and my late husband believed in Our Lord Jesus Christ as personal Savior. When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of US$5,8 million dollars in a Bank here in Abidjan Cote d'Ivoire.

Presently, this money is still in bank.

Recently, my Doctor told me that I would not last for the next Two Weeks due to cancer problem. The one that disturbs me most is my stroke sickness. Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to (An individual, Organization or a church) that will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct herein. I want an individual

Organization or a church that will use this fund for orphanages, widows, propagating the word of God and to endeavor 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 don't have any child that will inherit this money and my husband relatives are not Christians and I don't want my husband's efforts to be used by unbelievers. I don’t want a situation where this money will be used in an ungodly way. This is why I am taking this decision.

I am not afraid of death hence I know where I am going. 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 don't need any telephone communication in this regard because of my health hence the presence of my husband's relatives around me always. I don't want them to know about this development. With God all things are possible.

As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the Bank here in Abidjan Cote d'Ivoire. I will also issue you an authority letter that will prove you the present beneficiary of this fund. I want you and your family to always pray for me because the lord is my shepherd.

My happiness is that I lived 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. Hoping to receive your reply.

Remain blessed in the Lord.
Yours in Christ,
Mrs. Elizabeth Williams.

Note: Please any delay in your reply will give me room in sourcing another person for this same purpose. Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I Stated herein.
