Greetings,

Greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ the
Prince of peace and the KING of kings.

I am Benete Adelle a 25 years old christian girl, I
don't have a computer of my own, a missionary from
France allowed me to use her computer since she can't
help me in any other way.

I am a Victim of war in (COTE D'IVOIRE) Africa, I do
have a small poultry farm before the war where I make
my daily bread but unfortunately the REBELS came and
destroyed all my things and set fire on houses
including my poultry farm, I lost my farm.

I am writing you this mail to request for your prayers
and help in any way the Lord lay in your heart, to
feed and clothe myself and if possible to re-start my
little poultry farm again and I know that the Lord
shall bless you in return for doing this.

I am recently living with my pastor where we are about
9 people living in a single room. Anything that the
Lord lay in your heart for me will really be of a
great HELP at this point in time as I am seriously
going hunger,Please kindly let me know the help you
can be able to render me so that I can send you where
to send it.

I will be expecting your response. May the Lord bless
you abundantly and grant you success in all your
dealings.

Yours Sister In Christ,
Benete
NB: If you have doubts I will send you my PHOTOGRAPH
and the contacts of my pastor for you to contact him
and confirm things from him directly.

Yup, its disgusting, but some people will believe it because it carries so much religion behind it.

 

[garou12]

hmm they;ve moved out of nigeria i see.

 

[Dream Merchant]

OK, call me a bleeding heart, but what IF this is the on in a gazillion that's genuine?

Would a request for a scan of her passport, as well as the name, address and contact details of her church help prove authenticity? A church could always be looked up against a registry...

these things are never real because she doesn;t know the email recepitant at all. so how would she know to send it out to him?

 

[Dream Merchant]

A spam bot? I guess you do have a point there.

 

[Cheesecake]

ask drogba and eboue to help them la since they earn millions and they are from that country


:bsmilie:

 

[aeskywan]

Would a missionary condon u to use her computer to mass msg out to email addresses in the world to beg for money or will the missonary help the girl to make her life better? I think I answered your question....

 

[ArchRival]

Obviously a fake. Everyone knows that Triple H is the real King of Kings, not Jesus.

 

[Dream Merchant]

Let's soo not pull religion into this, please!

Oh well, 'she' did ask for "prayers" so I'll say one for her.

 

[freezemaster]

i think its a scam, if she needs money she won't anyhow email you. she should would have asked her church or the people who send them there on mission.

 

[Xpose]

reply the email to her and tell her that well her command of english is pretty good and it would be a waste of talent to work in a poultry farm and that she should look for some admin, translator or personal assistant position on www.jobstreet.com.sg www.jobsdb.com.sg or www.monster.com.sg This way, after a few years of working, she would be not only to afford a farm but she might even be able to afford a chain of farm.

 

[raptor1988]
