RE: REQUEST FOR HELP.
Hello Friend.
As you read this, I don't want you to feel sorry for me because I believe
everyone will die someday. My name is DASUKI AL- MEHMOOD, a merchant in
Dubai U.A.E.
I have been diagnosed with esophageal cancer. It has defiled all forms of
medical treatment, and right now I have only about a few months to live,
according to medical experts. I have not particularly lived my life so well,
as I never really cared for anyone (not even myself) but my business. Though
I am very rich, I was never generous, I was always hostile to people and
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 is more to life than just
wanting to have or make all the money in the world.
I believe when God gives me a second chance to come to this world I would
live my life a different way from how I have lived it. Now that God has
called me, I have willed and given most of my property and assets to my
immediate and extended family members as well as a few close friends.
I want God to be merciful to me and accept my soul so; I have decided to
give alms to charity organizations, as I want this to be one of the last
good Deeds I do on earth.
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 and distribute
the money which I have there to Charity organization in Bulgaria and Pakistan;
they refused and kept the money to themselves. Hence, I do nottrust them
anymore, as they seem not to
Be contended with what I have left for them.
The last of my money which no one knows of is the huge cash deposit of $6m.
(Six million United States Dollars) that I have with a finance/Security
Company in Europe. I will want you to help me collect this deposit and dispatched
it to charity organizations i have mentioned above. I have set aside 10
% for you and for your time.God be with you. please do reply to my private
mail box: almehmo@excite.com
Regards,
Dasuki Al- Mehmood
