My dear friend,
How are you today, i hope you are in great shape. My name is Hassan Mohammed
and I am businessman by profession.
I am presently receiving treatment for esophageal cancer, a terminal illness
and right now I have only about a few months to live because, according
to medical experts it has defiled all sorts of treatment.
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
also to charity organizations, as I want this to be one of the last good
deeds I do on earth. So far, I have distributed money to some charity organizations
in the U.A.E, Algeria and Malaysia. 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 not trust them
anymore, as they seem not to be contempted with what I have left for them.
The last of my money which no one knows of is the huge cash deposit of eighteen
million dollars $18,000,000,00 that I have with a finance/Security Company
abroad. I will want you to help me collect this deposit and dispatch it
to charity organizations.
I would like you to kindly help me fulfill my last wish on earth before
i die. I will send you pictures of myself when you write me and give you
more information about this project. Please endeavour to contact me on my
direct mail address of mohassanno2001@yahoo.fr so that i can tell you more
about myself. I look forward to hearing from you.
Yours sincerely,
Hassan Mohammed.
