Scammers Using Religion: Rev Williams

Scam Money Transfers
Scammers with Religion: Example -
Rev Williams, revwilliams22@yahoo.fr

Have you received an email from "Rev Williams" filled with endless religious references, gushing about her love for God and Jesus, but ultimately asking you to contact "revwilliams22@yahoo.fr" so that you can take her vast fortune off her hands before she dies, and put at least some of it to good use (usually helping orphans, the homeless and handicapped) It is nothing but a scam, along with a healthy dose of gibberish, spelling errors, terrible gram, syntax and punctuation, not exactly befitting an extremely wealthy person, let alone a godly one.

Of course, it is a scam. Don't reply to it. Pray for the scammers forgiveness, perhaps, or even better, a terminal case of VD, but certainly don't pity them or contact them.

Scam email from "Rev Williams":

Subject: DONATION FOR CHARITY WORKS.

 

Dear Beloved

DONATION FOR CHARITY WORKS.

May God be with you and richly bless you as you read this without
prejudice. Amen!

I am Rev Williams from Cotonou in the Republic of Benin and
a lawyer by profession. To the Glory of God, I was priviledged to be a
close friend and confidant to a late brother in Christ Rev. Jeff
Orji, who worked tirelessly both in his private life and in the
service of God in his lifetime before his devine call. May his soul
rest in perfect peace. Amen!

In all my association with this late brother and friend, this
revelation, the object of this mail was never made known to me because
the late Rev. Jeff Orji lived a very disciplined life. He was
wealthy before he went into ministry and adequately provided for his
family and also cared for people who were opportuned to come in close
contact with him.

However, shortly before his call to eternal Glory, he had summoned me
to his sick bed and made me promise to carry out his last wishes as a
trusted friend and confidant. I promised without knowing what he was
about to say and also, at the time, I believed he was not going to
die. Well, he told me he had some funds which he registered with a
security company as a consignment, which he intended to be used for
charity,ministry, evangelical work or otherwise when he was gone, but
did not want his immediate family to know about for fear of subversion

of his promise and pledge to God.

He then prayed for me and blessed me trusting that I would not subvert
his pledge to God. Before he died, he gave me information concerning
the fund and what I was to do. With all due respect to him, I waited
for the completion of the burial rites and mourning and other sundry
matters concerning him before proceeding to reach you.

I have prayed concerning this issue for God's guidance and if in your
heart you geniunely desire to use this fund for charity work in any
form whether for orphanage , ministry, evangelical work or otherwise
in relation to God's work, do get in touch with me  true  this email address  (revwilliams22@yahoo.fr) and let us pray
together over this before we can make further arrangements.

God bless you once again and as you receive, give God all the Glory.

Yours in the Lord,

Rev Williams
