Here is an email scam that tries to convince you this was sent by Mother Angelina Keith and attempts to back it up with a story THAT APPEARS TO BE from CNN but really from victims.list (look closely at the website address !!!)
For all I know, Mother Angelina Keith may be real, but these con-artists are using this name to make the whole scam seem real.
In the letter, you’ll notice that Mother Angelina Keith has given up the internet, so you’ll need to contact another person; this is a trick to making you believe that the person is authorized by Mother Angelina Keith, which is NOT the case.
It’s all a scam and designed to take you money and abuse your personal information. Here is the email…
———
I am sure this mail would be coming to you as a surprise since we have never met before and you would also be asking why I have decided to chose you amongst the numerous internet users in the world, precisely I cannot say why I have chosen you but do not be worried for I come in peace and something very positive is about to happen to your life right now and to the lives of others through you if only you can carefully read and digest the message below.
Before I move further, permit me to give you a little of my biography, I am Mother Angelina Lucy Keith, 87 Years old woman and the wife of Late Sir Keith Abery who died in a Plane crash on Monday the 7th of September 1998 GMT 14:22 UK while they were flying from New York to Geneva. Please see site below for more information.

After the death of my husband I became the Head of his investment and now that I am old and weak I have decided to spend the rest of my life in my Ranch before i finally leave the world, but before the death of my husband we had a plan to use the last days of our lives to donate half of what we have worked for to the less privilege and charity homes and the other half for ourselves, family members and close friends, and it is so unfortunate that my husband is not alive today to do this with me and I am very weak and old now, hence I have decided to do this philanthropic work on behalf of my late husband.
Presently, I have willed out almost half of our assets to several charity homes and to some of the less privilege in different countries.
Despite the agreement between my late husband and I to give aid to the deprived, we also agreed to render support to an individual we have not
meet before in life due to the fact when we were still young in life we receive an anonymous help from an individual we did not know and which we have not being able to know till date, the impact we got from such gesture made us to do same.
I am sorry to inform you that you will never have the chance to know me because I have just concluded the assignment which my husband and I have agreed upon before his sudden death and you happened to be the beneficiary of our last WILL, hence I need you to do me a favor by accepting our offer.
I deposited some fund in the sum of 1,800,000.00 (One Million Eight Hundred Thousand British Pounds) [which is $2.6 million US dollars) with DHL UK four weeks ago to deliver to you, but i was very ill so i could not send you an email until today. what you have to do now is to contact the DHL COURIER SERVICE UK as soon as possible to know when they will deliver your package to you.
For your information, I have paid for the delivering Charge, Insurance Premium and Clearance Certificate Fee of the Cheque showing that it is not a Drug Money or meant to sponsor Terrorist attack in your Country You have to contact the DHL EXPRESS UK now for the delivery of your cheque with this information bellow;
Contact Person: Mr. Richard Greg
Email Address: richardgreg@dhlglobalexpress.biz
Phone: +44-703-595-3474
Again, you are not to pay for the delivering Charge, the Insurance premium and the Clearance Certificate Fee of the Cheque because I have already paid for them, the only money you are expected to pay is 160 British Pounds for the security keeping of the cheque so far.
I would have paid the fee but the company insisted that I should not because they don’t know when you will be contacting them and to avoid demur rage or further cost.You are to reconfirm the below information to them to avoid any mistake on the Delivery.
Postal address:
Full Names:
Direct telephone number:
Age:
Occupation:
Below is the security keeping code: (SRT/0225/F) for your draft, you are to also present it to them for verification before delivery.
Please, try to contact them as soon as you receive this mail to avoid any further delay.
Be also notified that I will no longer be reading my emails or surfing the internet as I have retired completely from the outside world to my ranch, at this moment I have nothing to do with cars, emails and other luxuries, all further correspondence should be forwarded to the courier company for the delivery of your cheque to you.
Yours Faithfully,
Mrs. Angelina Keith
I got the same email from hannah keith asking me to take 20% of her 2 million dollars so I googled her and ended up in this website…..this email was too good to be true haha
I am simply appalled!! And I had planned to do such good works with her money. Where is Dr. Kevorkian when you need him?
Dear Friend,
I admire and thank you for your zeal and seriousness to help me out in this charitable cause. I want you to know that I contacted you purely on divine direction and I want you to know that I have prayed about this divine direction to you as you have been appointed for this project to bless you and your family. All I need is absolute trust and honesty when these funds get to you that it will be used to accomplish the purpose for which I have contacted you for. When my late husband was alive we were so much in love and fond of ourselves that we combined our middle names John and Alice to become Joyce whom we always used to call our selves and I will want you to set up a charity home or foundation with this name when the fund has been released to you. Dear you are now my only source of strength and hope and you alone can make me happy if only Joyce dreams come to pass then I shall wait upon the lord with joy in my heart. Please do not disappoint me because you know what it takes to entrust so much money on you.
I have already issued a letter of authority to the finance firm regarding my appointing you as my beneficiary and you are now the sole beneficiary to this fund totalling 2,143,728.00 US Dollars and you can keep 25% for yourself and your family for the services rendered by you. My finance firm advised me that such huge amount of money cannot be easily transferred from Canada since I am keeping it as a secret from my husband’s family due to their greedy behaviour thus proper and legal arrangements were made with a bank in The UK from which you will be transferring the money. As I told you in my last email my health is not too good now which means sometimes it will be difficult for me to be on the Internet and send messages to you but do send me messages and my prayer and blessings is with you. Also as soon as the funds get to you let me know so that I can still advise you on things to do.
The contact details and email of the finance firm is below and you have to contact them immediately via email at operations@fceplc-uk.co.cc as I have already issued the authority to them and they will be expecting to hear from you so that they can arrange on how the funds will be transferred to you. You have to provide the bank with the piece of information they will need to speedup the process of release of fund to you so that transfer can commence without delay. I want you to contact the bank stating only my Deposit Reference Number: FCE/2010/674/51729/CA-UK for easy trace of my file, and also note that you “MUST” open an online transit account (a special account designed specifically for the transfer of insured funds internationally) with this branch of FCE BANK (FORD FINANCIAL PLC) before my deposit willed to you can be credited in your name and thereafter you can transfer to anywhere you want in the world. If you follow the instructions from the bank directly, within the next 3 working days you will have this funds transferred to you and available for use.
Address and contact email of my bank branch in UK below:
FCE BANK PLC UK
Central Office, Eagle Way
Brentwood, Essex CM13 3AR.
United Kingdom
Head of Operations: Andrew White
Direct Email: operations@fceplc-uk.co.cc
Tel: +442032877591
Please endeavour to send your mail to the given email address only.
The agreement I signed at the point of depositing these funds states that whoever I authorized to inherit this deposit will complete it through the use of an online transit account that MUST be opened by the new customer. In view above, I want you to know that your contact with FCE BANK will involve the opening of a new personal online transit account with them in your name which automatically credits the deposit into your account. That is FCE Bank’s E-banking policy so you should be ready to open an account with them upon your contact thus if you are prompt to the bank’s instructions this process will be completed within 72 hours. I will be undergoing major surgery soon and hope this is not the last email you receive from me. Please pray for me.
I wish you all the best and may you be blessed abundantly, and please use the funds judiciously and always extend the good work to others.
NOTE: The funds in question has been insured to its real value so that deduction cannot be made until it gets to you for security reasons.
I will appreciate your utmost confidentiality in this matter until the task is accomplished as I do not want anything to jeopardize my last wish. Please ensure that you adhere to the advice/instructions of the officer at the bank.I pray that you are able to help me finalize this transaction soonest. Let me know once you have contacted the bank.
Thanking you with love.

Beloved,
Thank you for your reply. My name is Mrs. Hannah Keith, a 79 year old lady presently undergoing palliative intensive care in The Solomon Islands. I spent most of my life in The United Kingdom and Canada with my late husband Sir A.J. Keith who died in a Plane crash in 1998 while in transit from New York to Geneva.
— rest of message was same as listed here, just the above portion was changed! —
Thanks.

^^^^^^^^^
I just got this one.
Beloved,
Thank you for your reply. My name is Mrs. Hannah Abery, a 79 year old lady presently undergoing palliative intensive care in Solomon Islands. I spent most of my life in The United Kingdom and Canada with my late husband Sir K.J. Abery who died in a Plane crash in 1998 while in transit from New York to Geneva. News about this was on CNN, you could check their website:
cnn. com/WORLD/9809/swissair.victims. list/index.html
After the death of my husband I became the head of his investment and now that I am old and weak I have decided to spend the rest of my life in Solomon Islands before I finally leave the world since I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer 15 years ago and I have now reached the terminal stages of the disease. Before the death of my husband we had a plan to use the last days of our lives to donate half of what we have worked for to the less privilege and charity homes and the other half for ourselves, family members and close friends, and it is so unfortunate that my husband is not alive today to do this with me and I am very weak and old now, hence I have decided to do this philanthropic work on behalf of my late husband.
Presently, I have willed out almost all of our assets to several charity homes and to some of the less privilege in different countries. Despite the agreement between my late husband and I to give aid to the deprived, we also agreed to render support to an individual we have not meet before in life due to the fact that when we were still young in life we received an anonymous help from an individual we did not know and which we have not being able to know till date. The impact we got from such gesture made us to do same. I have therefore been inspired to donate the last portion of my fortune to charity through a complete stranger since my late husband and I were never blessed with any children of our own and I wish that you and your family be beneficiaries of the funds as well. Please accept my sincere offer.
Although we are interacting for the first time but I believe I have divinely been directed to you as I prayed and searched the internet till I got your contact email address from a business directory and picked you randomly for this cause. My husband’s relatives are unbelievers and they have used my husband’s wealth and property left behind for worldly things.
As I am here in the hospital they are around me and what they wait to hear is that I am dead so that they lay their hands on my last belongings here on earth but that does not bother me because things of the earth are canal and there is an eternal home for me which there is enough enjoyment.
I have decided to Will/donate the sum of $6,143,728.00 USD (Six Million, One Hundred and Forty Three Thousand, Seven Hundred and Twenty Eight US Dollars) which is in an account in The UK; for the good work of mankind to help orphans, less privileged, widows and the humanitarian aid following the aftermath of natural disasters.
I do not want them to know about this deposit that is why I am communicating with you only on email and I am making communication with the finance firm also who understands my predicament. All I need is your absolute trust, commitment, confidentiality and honesty because I want to see my late husbands vision fulfilled before I leave this sinful world. My spirit directed me to you as I prayed and searched over the internet for someone to help me since I can no longer trust my family members and friends and I do not want this particular deposit to be used for things of the world. I will want you to get back to me that you will be absolutely honest about this transaction and you will use this money to the Glory of God. Also you have to assure me you will keep this transaction confidential and you are willing to contact the finance firm which is located in Canada which has its branch in the United Kingdom to finalize all necessary formalities as to the release of the fund to you. I will also want to know a little more about you regarding your life, your spiritual life, what you do for a living so as for me to know you will be able to complete this.
At the moment I cannot take any telephone calls and I barely could complete this email with assistance from my PA because of my failing health, please pardon any discrepancies. I require your urgent response if you are trustworthy and willing to help me finalize this transactions so that I will immediately write my lawyer to prepare a court injunction/power of attorney making you beneficiary to my fund as all other documents are with the finance firm that I sent it to them for safe keeping so my family members will not lay their hands on it. To prepare this document I will require your full names, address and phone number.
Thanks.
Mrs. Hannah Abery

Beloved,
Thank you for your reply and hope contacting you this way does not offend. My name is Mrs. Hannah Abery; a 79 year old lady presently undergoing palliative intensive care in my residence in Hong Kong. I spent all my life in The United Kingdom with my late husband Dr. Thomas K. Abery who died in a Plane crash on Monday the 7th of September 1998 while in transit from New York to Geneva.
My husband left me a fortune worth millions of Pounds. I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer 3 years ago and my understanding is that I have now reached the terminal stages of the disease. I have therefore been inspired to donate a portion of my fortune to charity through a complete stranger and I wish that you and your family be beneficiaries of 60% of the funds. This comes as a result of an anonymous sponsorship of my husband’s investment portfolio years ago. Please accept my sincere offer.
I got your contact email address from a business directory and picked you randomly for this cause. I decided to WILL/donate the sum of 2,500,000.00 (Two Million Five Hundred Thousand Pounds Sterling) to you for the good work of mankind to help orphans, less privileged, widows and the humanitarian aid following the aftermath of the earthquakes in Haiti and Chile.
At the moment I cannot take any telephone calls and I barely could complete this email with assistance because of my failing health, please pardon any discrepancies. My lawyer in The United Kingdom is aware of my decision and has been instructed to arrange the transfer of the designated funds to you.
Contact my lawyer immediately for further instructions via his personal email address which I use in communicating with him:

I wish you all the best and may the good Lord bless you abundantly, and please use the funds judiciously and always extend the good work to others.
NOTE: The funds in question has been insured to its real value so that deduction cannot be made until it gets to you for security reasons. My lawyer and legal adviser for over 14 years would selflessly assist you with this process.
I will appreciate your utmost confidentiality in this matter until the task is accomplished as I do not want anything to jeopardize my last wish. Please ensure that you adhere to the advice/instructions of my lawyer.
