Dear Friend,
I sincerely hope that after you read this mail you will respond to my call,let
me start by introducing myself my name is Robert Mark . i'm 65 years old
,a british living in Dakar ( Senegal). I am a businessman and owns two companies
here in Dakar, married with two children.My wife and two children died in
a car accident six years ago but 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 familes. i have been helping orphans in motherless homes, i have
donated some money to orphans in sudan, south africa, cameroun, brazil,
spain, austria germany and some asian countries.Before i became ill, i kept
some money, ten and a half million dollars ($10.5million) to be precise
in a long term deposit account in a security company in Spain .Presently,
i'm in a hospital my doctor told me i have prostate cancer that i have a
few months to live.it is my last wish to see this money distributed to charity
organizations. because so much of my wealth has been plundered by relatives
and friends since my illness,hence i cannot live with the agony of entrusting
this huge responsibility to any of them since the money in the security
company is the last fund that i have left.
Right now i am partialy stranded in the hospital due to the nature of my
sickness so i am appealing to you to help me collect the deposit from the
security company in Spain and distribute it amongst charity organizations.
I would want you to use your discretion to distribute the money and keep
10% of it for yourself. Feel free to reimburse yourself when you have the
money for any cost you might have incured during the process of collecting
and distributing the money to charity organizations. May the good Lord bless
you and your family.
Please reply to this mail robertmark@post.cz, as i can only communicate
through my laptop which is by my bed,as soon as i get your response i shall
then give you the necessary informations you need to collect this money
With Regards,
Robert Mark
