Dearest in Christ,

I am Sister Eunice Parma from KUWAIT, I am married to Chief kamson Parma. He worked with KUWAIT embassy in Ivory Coast for nine years before he died in the year 2006 April 26. We were married for eleven years without a child. He died after a brief illness that lasted for only four days. When my late Husband was alive he deposited the sum of $1.8 Million (One Million Eight hundred thousand U.S. Dollars)in a Bank on my name as beneficiary of the fund here in Abidjan. Recently, my Doctor told me that I would not last for the next Eight months 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 a church that will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct herein. I want you to use this fund for orphanages, widows, propagating the word of God and to endeavour that the house of God is maintained. The Bible made us to understand that “Blessed is

  1. usually scams will cost you money upfront, where real things won't. most likely these are scams, especially the lottery one,

    example: the real reward programs, you have to sign up for memberships and high interest credit cards before you ever get your gift.

    but if you can find a way to follow up, without it costing you to much, it might be worth a try.


  2. SCAM. Why don't she just leave it to a church if thats what she wants to do, no need to involve anyone else except maybe a lawyer.

  3. Sorry friend but there is no Microsoft, Yahoo or other e-mail lottery, it's a scam do not answer do not give personal information.The following sites give more information

    .Also If you go to the following site you will get some info on ID theft www.identity-theft.org.uk the iinternet is safe enough if you are careful but please answer nothing that you are doubtful about.Good Luck and be careful

  4. It is a scam. there are hundreds of these scams going around.Just spam it. they will end up asking you to send money for the release of your winnings but you will never ever recieve. Think about it how can you win something you have not entered. dont be fooled by these scams. If it seems too good to be true thats because it is.

  5. This is a SCAM. The below links confirm various email scams hitting the internet. There is also an online form for the reporting of such. - (with links for your own country.) This site also gives excellent advice on what steps you can take to achieve a spam free inbox :

    Unscrupulous thieves have sent you this email and they are trying to part you from your hard earned cash. They will often ask you to call a premium rate number and keep you holding on whilst you rack up a huge phone bill. They are then paid a large proportion of this phone bill. They may ask you to divulge personal information about yourself or ask for your bank or credit card details. Do not divulge any such information under any circumstances. It is surprising how many innocent victims have been duped by these types of emails. Please remember the thieves who send them are very clever and extremely convincing. I suggest you delete the email and send it into cyberspace, hopefully along with the thieving scumbags who send them.
