Subject: ASSISTING THE TSUNAMIC VICTIMS
Dear Friend,
I am Mr. ALFRED BRUNO a merchant in Dubai in the
Middle East. Now based in United Kingdom .I have been
diagnosed with Cancer which was discovered very late, due
to my laxity incaring for my health. It has defiled all
forms of
medicine, Right now I have only about a few months to live,
according to my Medical Doctor. I have not particularly lived
my life so well, as I never really cared for myself but the
oil business.
Though, I am very rich, I was never generous, I
only focused on my business as that was the only
thing I cared for. But now I regret all this as I now know
that there ismore to life than just wanting to have or make all
the money inthe world. I believe when God gives me a second
chance and heal me I would live my life a different way from how
I have lived it. I havesowed a seed for my healing I have
willed and
given most of myproperties and assets to my immediate and extended
family
membersand as well as a few close friends.
I want God to be merciful to me and accept my soul and so,
I have decided to give arms to charity organizations and give
succor and comfort to the less privileged of the Tsunami Victims,
as Iwant this to be one of the last good deeds I do on earth So
far, Ihave distributed money to some charity organizations in India and
Malaysia.Now that my health has deteriorated so badly, I cannot do this
myself anymore. I once asked members of my family to close one of
my accounts in Saudi Bank and distribute the money which I have
there tocharity organization and to the less privileged in Bulgaria and
Sudan-Africa
They cashed the money but kept it only tothemselves. Hence, I
do not trust them anymore, as they seem not to be contended with
what I have left for them already. The last of my money which no
oneknows of is the huge cash deposit of twenty two million dollar
$22 million that I have in the Vault of a security house in Europe
fo safe keeping. I want you to collect this deposit on my behalf and
disburse
half of it to the Tsunami Earthquake victims in Asia for theless privileged
(for charity purpose) and the other half to set up an investment
that is profit base in other to keep the charity work
alive.Please send me a mail to indicate your wiliness to assist this
disbursement.
For your willingness and readiness to act accordingly, I will
set aside 10% for you for your time and efforts in caring
out this responsibility on my behalf while, the remaining 90% will
be used by you for both charity work and setting up of an
investment that is profit oriented to enable you continue to assist the less
privileged from time to time from the profit you make from this
investment annually.send further response to email
I need your urgent reply so that I will not have to go on
sourcing for a credible person to handle this project. God bless
you.
Best Regards
ALFED BRUNO
