| Subject: PROPAGATING THE GOSPEL To: admin@cowboys-n-cowgirls.com Dear MR Jen GREETINGS IN THE NAME OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, I am Deacon. Mark Edwards, a member of Spring of Life Ministries Inc. I was formerly into the importation and sale of medical equipment in my native country,Sierra – Leone. My operational based was in Freetown the capital city. In January 1999,when the second civil war broke out in my country, the Revolutionary United Front Rebels, who invaded Freetown, burned my office and warehouse. In that attack, I lost all my properties and assets. I was left with virtually nothing, except some money I had in the Bank. When the United Nations sent in troops to quell the rebel’s onslaught and there was a relative peace in Freetown, I returned to business, but this time, I invested my resources in the Mining of Diamond through the help of a third party, some Lebanese who were very grounded in the industry to Antwerp in Belgium. The returns I got from this business were quite good and my life was gradually picking up again until early this year when the Sierra-Leonean government banned private exportation of the Diamond at the international market. The U.N. obliged the government and it is now illegal to sell/buy Diamond emanating from Sierra-Leone. Following this action, the government of my country clamped down on all businessmen who had made fortunes selling Diamond. Consequently, my newly acquired properties were seized again and I had no option than to leave the country immediately to a neighboring west African country, where I met our Lord Jesus Christ and my life was totally transformed.But before I left I was able to first move my money out of the country. I had$10,500,000 (Ten Million, Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars) in my domiciliary account in Freetown. I had to move the money out of the Country through a very secret arranged channel, in a very unconventional method; this was done by my friend an official at the “Security Minting & Printing Company” of my country. Presently, this money is in an Oversea Country, under the custody of a private security firm. My ministry is basically a prayer and deliverance ministry. Since I received my calling and joined my ministry, I have been asking God to purify what remains of my wealth for evangelical works and for orphanage. On the last day of a special fasting and praying session in my ministry, there was a divine revelation from God that I should invest in your ministry. My God is not an author of confusion. Contact me immediately for further discussions. Your brother in Christ, Deacon. Mark Edwards |
| Please "Beware" of what you may find in your email! |
| The Following is a non edited copy of an email I received. This email is like many others we receive here almost on a daily basis. And though they anger me, to think of the people that can be taken in by these, "This" one Angered me a "Great Deal"!! In the United States, there is little that law enforcement agencies can do about these types of mailings. At least that is what I have been told. So the best solution I can come up with is "Awareness"...The Following is a "Sample" of what "NOT" to fall prey too! And my "reply" to the sender. (I normally don't even do that, but "this" one, really made me angry.) Please remember "Any" place that is legitimate, will offer you way's of verification. Like "winning" a large amount of money from a source in Canada,, but you have to "Pay" the "Duty" on the prize money so it can cross the country. Always make some "Calls" .. Always ask questions!! If you really did "win" they won't take your "prize" away from you for "asking" and "Never" Give out any account information! Talk to your banker,, or better yet,, tell your "Savior" to give you their number and your banker will contact them!! Like this email "below" for example.. I really doubt I will hear back from them, about "where" they can send there money too.. "The Relief Fund" !! |

I find your email disturbing, yours is not unlike others I have received, money in far away places, people asking for "help" to retain funds, and with promises of huge rewards to the party that favors these results for your funds returned to you. "Your" Email is particularly disturbing, as you are proclaiming this an act of the lord. Taking advantage of lost, or kind souls, people with real goodness in their hearts, at a time when "they" are what "this" world "needs" most!! If that is true, how is a Deacon, comes to such monies? And "why" were the funds filtered out of the country and not helping the poor of your own nation?? I do what I do from my heart, and ask no funds from another. And the Lord "has" provided me the ability to do that, I live a modest means.. In other words.. I do not have any assets of any kind..in any place. "I" am a single mother, striving to give hope to those that have lost it, to share the lessons of my life, that brought me great pains, to teach children that they do have worth.. If you "Are" who you say you are, I will put you in contact with a place your funds can do the most good. And would request a "verifiable" email address. And with that,, Blessings & "Light" to you and yours, "Miss" ~Jen |
