Dear friend,
Greetings, As you read this, I don't want you to feel
sorry for me, because,I believe everyone will die
someday.
My name is lazon fernandez a merchant in phillipines,I
have been diagnosed
with Esophageal 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 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 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 so,
I
have decided to give alms 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 Asian, Europe and America. 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 contended with what I
have
left for them.
The last of my money which no one knows of is the huge
cash deposit of $18,000,000,00 dollars that I have
with a
finance/Security Company abroad. I
will want you to help me collect this deposit and
dispatched it to charity
organizations. I have set aside 20% for you and for
your
time.
I will give you more details concerning this as soon
as I
received your swift response which must include your
full
names, address, occupation, age and your direct mobile
phone number.
God be with you.
Lazon Fernandez
