Dear Friend,
I am Mr.Musa mamadu, a merchant in Dubai, Arab Emirate. I have been
diagnosed with Cancer which was discovered very late due to my laxity
in caring 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 although I made some
fortune generously I never was but only focused on my business which
was only thing I cared for I have no child. Knowing there is more to
life, I greatly regret it and beg God for mercy.
I have sowed a seed for my healing. I have willed and given most of my
properties and assets to my immediate and extended family members and
as well as a few close friends. On God mercy, I have decided giving
help to charity organizations involve in Tsunami victims and less
privileged as I want this to be one of the last good deeds on earth.
So far, I have distributed funds to some charity organizations in
Africa and Middle East through the help of my family members who
corruptly did nothing but kept all to them selves knowing that I am
not fit to handle it. Now that my health has deteriorated so badly, I
cannot do this my self anymore. Therefore, I am seeking your
assistance to help the poor in claiming my deposited fund in Europe
which I initially intended using for property project to give out to
charity involve in cancer project and Sri-Lanka, India, Indonesia,
Flooded area in China, Sudan, Ethiopia, Rwanda in Africa and Moslem
families parent killed recently in Bosnia
The cash fund is twenty two million united dollars US$22.000.000.00
deposited in the Vault of The Century company in Europe for safe
keeping. On your indicated interested to assist, detailed instruction
will be given to you and how much you will earn for your services.
Pease you could write me back on below email which is more private.
God bless you.
