Subject: Dearly Beloved, Trust you are Fine and Safe Irre...
*Greetings to you Dearly Beloved*
With a heart of humility and sincerity, I write this letter of appeal to
you hoping you are fine, because i also know we are in an unprecedented era
of strange Covid 19 pandemic, may the Almighty continue to protect us.
These are perilious times but pardon my intrusion and Humble request of a
soul in Need.
*Please, my pregnant wife is undergoing a caesarean/surgical operation; *she is
supposed to be having caesarean surgical operation but still lying
helpless for more than one week in the hospital.Please help us….!! We
seriously need this operation.
Please i humbly request for your help. We saved for this operation but due
to the *total lockdown* arising from* covid*-19 pandemic for more than two
months now, we have used up our savings for feeding and ante-natal
emergencies, we are exhausted.
Please am humbly asking you to help my wife out, our government is not
dependable, they promise palliatives but none was given. The hospital made
it known that we are going to pay for this surgical operation. Please have
mercy!
The cost of the operation is around $500.00(Five hundred dollar) but any
amount you can afford will go a long way to support us.
My government (Nigeria) is not supportive and i dont want to lose my wife
due to issues arising from lack of finance to fund the operation.
I know we are in a trying period and economic activity is down, please see
what you can do for me and my wife. I have not met you personally, but i
know you have a kind heart.
Thank you so much for taking the time to consider my appeal. I look forward
to hearing from you soon. Am very sorry for bothering you. Please this is
not a scam. You are about to save a life.
*My Prayer for you is that, GOD will grant you that particular request that
you have been asking him to do for you.*
My phone numbers is +2349044051871 or reply back via this email for any
question & for avoidance of doubt, please feel free to ask or enquire.
I will personally want to be gratefull to you……
Yours Sincerely,
Michael O.James
