Subject: INDICATE YOUR WILLINGNESS
FROM THE DESK OF
ENGR DOUGLASS MUSA
DUBAI UNITED ARAB EMIRATES.
.
ATTN: PRESIDENT / CEO,
Dear Sir,
REQUEST FOR YOUR CO-OPERATION
I am Engr.Douglass Musa, I am 78 years old; a native of Dubai United Arab
Emirates.
My late father was killed by his business associate in 2002 ,and during the
period I married we had a son which both of them was also killed in a cold
blood a year later, I am now afraid of showing myself out to them (Business
Associate Including members of my Family) as all are wanting to deny or kill
me too, All because after the death of my father, Inherited all his business
and wealth.
Currently, I am suffering from long time cancer of the Brian. From all
indications, my condition is really deteriorating and is quite obvious that
I may not live more than six months, because the cancer stage has gotten to
a very Sever stage. Intact, my personal physician told me that I may not
live for more than six months and I am so scared about this. So, I now
decided to divide part of this wealth, by contributing to the well benign of
less privileged people and handicapped in the society of Asian, which is in
my place, America Europe and African Countries.
This mission, which will no doubt be tasking hand made me to recently
relocate from my family house to new place where I live presently due to the
pressure my family members are giving me as they want to share the fund
within them self’s which i don't want. I selected you for this Purpose and
prayed over it, I am willing to donate the sum of $15,300,000.00 Million US
Dollars to you for the development of the well begin of handicapped in the
society and also as aids for the less privileged around your country, and I
have mapped out $1,300,000.00 for your own personal use to help me for this
work.
Please note that, this fund is currently lying in a Security Company in
Europe and, therefore my ATTORNEY will file an immediate application for the
transfer of the money in your name or your home. Please, do not reply me if
you have the intention of using this fund for personal use, than enhancement
of the comfort of the Handicapped .Lastly, I want you/your home to be
praying for me as regards my entire life and my health because I have come
to find out since my spiritual rebirth lately that wealth acquisition
without God in one's life is vanity upon vanity.
Yours Sincerely,
Engr Douglass Musa.
