Subject: .USE FOR CHARITY
Dear friend,
I greet you in the Name that is above all names,As you read this, I
don't want you to feel sorry for me, because,I believe everyone will
die someday.My name is ALIU HASSAN,a merchant in Dubai, in the U.A.E.I have
been diagnosed with lung 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 my wife) 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, I have decided
to give arms 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 Iraq,they refused and
kept the money to themselves. Hence, I do not trust them anymore, as they
seem not to be contended with what I have given to them.
The last of my money which is the huge cash deposit of Eighteen Million US
dollars (US$18,000,000.00),kindly Acknowledge this message so that I can
introduce you to my lawyer who will handle the transfer of receivership by
you of the said funds. I will want you to help me collect this deposit and
dispatched it to charity organizations.My lawyer shall put you in the picture
of the funds,
tell you where the fund is currently being maintained and also discuss modalities
including remuneration for your services. For this reason I kindly need you
help and that of charity organizations.
Please reply to:aliuhassangitf@netscape.net
God be with you.
MR.ALIU HASSAN.
