Subject: HEAL THE WORLD
Dear Friend,
As you read this letter,please do not feel sorry for me because i believe everyone will die some day.I am from united kingdom but a merchant in the U.A.E,i have been diagonised of esophageal cancer which was discovered very lately due to my laxity in caring for my health.It has defiled all forms of medicine and at present my chances of survival is very slim according to medical experts.I have
never lived my live so well as i never really cared for anyone not even myself but my bussiness.
Though i was very rich but was never generous to people,i was always hostile to people and i only focused on my bussiness 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 one thing to make all the money in the world.
Now i believe when God give me a second chance to come to this world i will live my life in a different way from how i haved lived before.Now that God has called me through this way,i have willed and given out most of my properties and assets to my immediate and extended family,and as
well as few closed friends.I want God to be merciful to me and accept my soul,and so i have decided to give arms to charity organisations as i want this to be one of the last good deeds i did on earth.So far i have distributed so much money to charity organisations in U.A.E,Algeria and
Malaysia.Now that my health has deteriorated so badly,i can no longer do this myself.I once asked my family memebers to close one of my accounts and distribute the funds which i have given to charity organisations in Bulgaria and Pakistan,they refused and kept the money to themselves.
Hence,i do not trust them any more as they seems not to be contented with what i have left for them.The last of the funds which no one know of is the huge sum of fifteen million pound {15million} which was deposited with a security company in Neitherlands.I want to know if you can
be of good help to make claim of the funds and distribute them accordingly to charity organisations and orphanage homes to uplift the services of humanity.20% of the total sum will be for all the expenses that you will incure during the cousre of the transaction.May the good lord be with you as you have decided to take a bold step to join me heal the world.
You can contact me at my alternative private email address which i can easily access right in the hospital.

Best Regards,
Mr Scott Anderson.
