...Hello Dear,

Kindly permit me to write you my ordeal and such seek your assiststance.
I am Mrs. Angelina Nya from Ukraine but presently in the hospital for my operation. I married to late Mr. Dickson Nya Desmond, who was the ambassador of Ukraine in Ivory Coast.

We were posted to Ivory Coast for 12yrs mission in Ivory Coast, but it was unfortunate that my late husband passed away without returning back to our country alive. Due to I have engaged myself in the work of the lord in this country; I decided to return back to continue the fellowship of the lord by helping the charities organization, basically the poor.

I have a donation to make which I will need your assistance to carry it out for me, I will be 69 years old this coming October 17, a widow and a servant of the Lord for the past 38 years in Ivory Coast, Africa.

I inherited some money ($12.3 million) from my late husband; I want to give it out to Orphanage and Charity Organizations as a vow, which I made before the Lord.
I have a lung and breast cancer and will be going for my third operation next two weeks, though the doctor have already confirmed that I will only last for some months but I am happy and glad that the Lord has kept me safe and guided me to accomplish my mission on earth. I will be happy to meet Him where He wants me to be.
This is the favour I need when you have gotten the money: -
Give 70% of the money to Charity organizations, orphanage homes and Churches on my name so that my soul may rest in peace.
The remaining 30% should be for you and others that you would love to assist. Reply to my private mail as follow for more information// add me ( nya_angeline@yahoo.com )
May God bless you and use you to accomplish my wish.

Pray for me always.
Yours faithfully,
Mrs. Angeline Nya.

I hate spammers

PM spam by http://www.freesound.org/people/vicky200/
vicky22u@yahoo.com is the address contained in the message in case some masked spam avenger might want to give payback

And here is yet another spammer I believe should be deleted from FS:

Please i will like you to contact me, through my private e-mail via: ( angelajammeh@yahoo.co.uk ) So we can get to know each other better,and i well give you my pictures and also tell you more Angela.

Moderators/administrator may check into my PM to verify my claim. Maybe there should be a rule that an account must download a sound before (s)he can send PMs?
