Dear Beloved,

I am Mrs. Sheryl Crawford, 79 years old, deaf and a widow to Late Engr Bret H. Crawford. I was married to late Engr Bret H. Crawford ,who worked with Shell Development Company in London for Twenty-Six years before he died in the year 2011 after a brief illness that lasted only five days. When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of US$22.5 M in a firm here. Following my ill health i am now currently hospitalized in a private hospital as a result of (Cancer of the Lungs) which i have been battling for long, as i have my faith only in God for survival, but my Doctor has informed me that I may not live longer than required due to my health condition. I am looking forward to seeking someone assistance in helping me to use this money in charitable works. Further details will be revealed to you upon your response.

May God Bless You.

Regards,

Mrs. Sheryl Crawford
