Subject: CONTACT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE
DEAR FRIEND,
Greetings to you and your family in the name of God. In my search for a
reliable and God fearing person and having gotten your contact through
prayersand painstaking efforts I have decided to seek your help in carrying
out
my last wish .My names are HARRY PEKINS. I'm a 65yrs old man and a British
living in Dubai (United Arab Emirate). I was a merchant and owned two
businesses in Dubai.
I was also married with two children. MY WIFE and two children
died in a car accident six years ago. Before this happened my business and
concern for making money was all I lived for. I never really cared about
other values in life. But since the loss of my family, I have found a new
desire to assist helpless families. I have been helping orphans in
orphanage/motherless homes.
I have also donated some money for humanitarian needs in Sudan, South
Africa,Cameroon, Brazil, Spain, Austria, Germany and some Asian countries.
Only recently I saw on television the colossal loss of properties and
livelihood of people in AMERICA and ASIA, through flood.
I was moved with great pity and compassion that I decided to make a
contribution on assisting people over there.Before I became ill, I kept
$10.5 Millio in a long-term deposit account in a finance company.
Presently, I'm in a hospital where I have been undergoing treatment for
oesophageal cancer.I have since lost my ability to talk and my doctors have
told me that I have only a few months to live. It is my last wish to see
this money distributed to victims of this flood outbreak in AMERICA and ASIA
and other charity organizations.Because relatives and friends have plundered
so much of my wealth since my illness, I cannot live with the agony of
entrusting this huge responsibility to any of them. Please,I beg you in the
name of God to help me collect the deposit and the interest accrued from the
company and distribute it accordingly.
Use your judgement to distribute the money and keep 20% of it to yourself.
Feel free to reimburse yourself when you have the money for any cost you
incure during the process of collecting and distributing the money. If you
are willing to help, CONTACT AT harry_pekins@zwallet.com
please reply as soon as you can. May the good Lord
bless you and your family.
Regards
MR HARRY PEKINS
