Goodday,
My names are Diane Lynn. I was diagnosed of cancer about 2 years ago, and
was receiving treatment for it, but now the doctors are saying I have a
short time to live. When I was in better health, I never really cared for
any body with no children of my own and a late husband I was a selfish and
greedy person. I have decided to donate the sum of $10.8M to you, so you
can disburse to charities, widows, orphans and less privileged. I was doing
this myself but now my health has deteriorated, I wanted my relatives to
do this for me but they only saw it as an opportunity to enrich themselves.
I will be going in for an operation soon, I want this last act of mine to
be an offering unto God, perhaps he will have mercy on me. Please contact
my lawyer with the below:
Peter Wallace

Quote my ref # : will/Wlaw/Pn/lr/93/ytx/ when responding.
I am sending him a copy of this message as well so he is aware of my
intentions, Please use the funds well and always extend the good works to
others.
Stay blessed,
Diane Lynn.
Since you’re here …
we have a small favour to ask. More people are visting Scamdex and Scamalot than ever but advertising revenues are falling fast and we have no 'product' to sell.
And unlike many informational websites, we haven’t put up a paywall or membership barrier – we want to keep our site as open as we can.
So you can see why we need to ask for your help. Scamdex/Scamalot websites takes a lot of time, money and hard work to keep running. We do this because we
hate to see our fellow humans getting scammed out of their hard-earned money by low-lives.
