Dear Friend,
As you read this, I don't want you to feel sorry for me, because, I
believe everyone will die someday.My name is Mr.Daniel Duke . a
merchant in Dubai,in the U.A.E.I have been diagnosed with Esophageal Cancer
which was discovered very late, due to my laxity in carrying for my health.
It has defiled all forms of medicine, and right now I have only about afew
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 myself but my business. Though I am very rich, I
was never generous,I was always hostile to peopleand only focus 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 makeall
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 call ed me, 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. I want God to be merciful to me and
accept my soul and so, I have decided to give arms to charity organizations
and give succour and confort to the less priviledged in our societies, 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 my self 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 and to the less priviledged 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 contended with what I have left
for them.
The last of my money which no on e knows of is the huge cash deposit
of four million Six hundred thousand dollars $4.6million this financial
company operates in funds management,international /cash,banking
with a reputable correspondent bank worldwide,bullion
underwriting,security
handling and general appropriation.I will want you to assist me
transfer this deposit into your bank account and dispatched it to charity
organizations and world HIV/AIDS programmes in Ethiopia.
Please kindly contact me through my private email address below.
Keep this confidential and treat with discretion,while i await to hearfrom
you.Please send me a mail to indicate if you will assist me in this
disbursement.While I await to hear from you,may God be with you and
your entire family.
Remain blessed,
Mr.Daniel Duke
