Scammers Using Religion: Mrs Elinor George Jacobs

Scam Money Transfers
Scammers with Religion: Example -
Mrs Elinor George Jacobs,
"I will compensate you with 10% of this money if you will assist me because I am now too weak and fragile to do things myself because of my cancer."

Have you received an email from "Mrs Elinor George Jacobs" telling you how she and her late husband "were without child" and now she is dying of cancer?  The email, filled with endless religious references, gushing about her love for God and Jesus, but ultimately tells you "I will compensate you with 10% of this money if you will assist me because I am now too weak and fragile to do things myself because of my cancer.". Isn't it nice that she randomly selected you, half a world away, to take her money before she dies, and so you can put 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, for them to get hit by a large bus, but certainly don't pity them or contact them.

 From - Mrs Elinor George Jacobs.

 Hello Friend,

I decided to donate what I have to charity through you. You may be

wondering why I chose you, but the almighty lord chosen you.

I am 68 years old and was diagnosed for cancer about 4 years ago,

immediately after the death of my husband I have been touched by the

lord to donate from what I have inherited from my late husband to

charity through you for the good work of humanity.

Presently, I have informed my representative about my decision in

WILLING this fund to charity through you. If you are interested in

carrying out this task, I will inform my Doctor so that he can arrange

the release of the funds to you.

I wish you all the best and may the good Lord bless you abundantly, and

please use the funds well and always extend the good work to others.

NB: I will appreciate your utmost confidentiality in this matter until

the task is accomplished, as I don't want anything that will jeopardize my

last wish, due to the fact that I do not want relatives or family

members standing in the way of my last wish.

I know I have never met you but my mind tells me to do this, and I hope

you act sincerely. I will compensate you with 10% of this money if you

will assist me because I am now too weak and fragile to do things

myself because of my cancer.

May the grace of our lord

Jesus Christ, the love of god, and the Sweet fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you Amen.

I await your urgent reply.

 Sincerely

 Mrs Elinor George Jacobs.
