Subject: KINDLY READ THIS !!
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 Roman Jan Legierski . a merchant in Barcelona,Spain 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 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 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 me mbers 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 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 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
eleven million united states
dollars $11,000,000,00 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
also set out 10% of this money to be
giving to the less privileged in Sri lanka,indonesia and Thailand 15% has
being set aside for you and for
your time.
You are to respond through my personal and safe email address. God be with
you.

Mr. Roman Jan Legierski .
