Subject: PLEASE YOUR ATTENTION
Dear,
I am very sorry for contacting your management in this form since we
have not met each other before. I am Prof. Hassan Adam a merchant in
Egypt; I have been diagnosed with esophageal cancer. It has defiled
all forms of medical treatment, and right now I am on life support,
having only about a few weeks to live, according to medical experts
here in London. I have not particularly lived my life so well, as I
never really cared for anyone but my business. I was never generous,
I was always hostile to people and only focused on my business as
that was the only world 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 have traced your company contact
through the Internet, I may be correct or wrong, Please find it a
pleasure in your heart to do this for the children of GOD.
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. 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 lost my
only son (the Adams), with his wife (Shaline Adam) and two children
(Joshua Adam) and (Rebecca Adam) in plane crash from USA to Egypt.

Hence, I am left with no heir to inherit my wealth!!! 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 U.A.E, Algeria and Malaysia, and India. Now that
my health has deteriorated so badly, I cannot do this myself anymore.
Two months ago, I 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 Eight Million United States Dollars $8, 000, 000, 00 that I have
with one Security/Finance & Diplomatic Organization in abroad (Name
of country withheld for security reasons). I will want you to collect
this deposit and dispatched it to charity organizations. May GOD help
you as you do this? Please note that I have not serviced that deposit
since after the death of my family in the plane crash. I will give
you all the details you will require as soon as I receive your
immediate response.
Don’t fail to let me know what percentage of the total sum you will
consider ok for you and for your family for this great assistance.
Please get back to me for more details. Thank you.
May Allah be with you.
Yours faithfully,
Prof. Hassan Adam
