Subject: Kindly Do This For Me
*My Dearest Kind Loving One,*
**
*My Profound greetings to you this fateful day,what will one gain here on
earth and lost his soul?In my search for a reliable person whose love for
other is the same with the one he has for hiself or herself,I came in
contact with your address,through prayers and painstaking efforts I have
decided to seek your help in carrying out my last wishes. *
**
*My name is Mrs. Venesa Roots.54 years old woman married to Mr Dockyard
Roots from Benin Republic.cotonou.I was a merchant and owned two businesses
in Dubai. I was also married with two children. My husband and two children
died in a car accident four years ago.*
**
*Before this happened, my business and concern for making money was all I
live 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 and
orphans in orphanage/motherless homes. *
*I have also donated some money for humanitarian needs in Sudan, South
Africa, Cameroon, etc *
**
*I was moving with great pity and compassion that I decided to make this
contribution on assisting people over the word , I kept ($6 Million United
States Dollars) in a long-term deposit in a Safety Firm as a reserve for the
future. *
*Presently, I'm in a hospital where I have been undergoing treatment for
oesophagi cancer at Bright Life Memorial Hospital Benin Republic. I have
since lost my ability to talk loud and my doctors have told me that I have
only few months to live,but am most grateful that my sense are intact as
have confirmed by these doctor's. *
**
*It is my last wish to see,that this money distributed to victims of orphans
in orphanage homes/motherless babies homes and other charity organization.
all relatives and friends have plundered so much of my wealth since my
illness, I cannot live with the agony entrusting this huge responsibility to
any of them.this is my private mail box *
*Please, I dont mean to stress you but this is an opportunity for you to
effect lives somehow somewhere by ensuring that,this honourable task reposed
on you is effectively tackled and never relent even after you have concluded
this task,Our life here on earth should not just be for us and our family
but for everyone one around and far,One day,all that is acquired will be
abundone for an unknown destination and what will be our reward after this.*
**
*I implore you to distribute the money and keep 10% of it to yourself. Feel
free to reimburse yourself when you have the money for any cost you incured
during the process.*
**
*Regards,*
*Yours sister
Mrs. Venesa Root.( today am better than what you can see on this picture)*
