Dear Friend,
I am Mr.JOHN AKPO a merchant in the Middle East. But based in United
Kingdom.
I have been diagnosed with Cancer which was discovered very late, due
to my
laxity in caring for my health.
It has defiled all forms of medicine, Right now I have only about a few
months to live, according to my Medical Doctor.
I have not particularly lived my life so well, as I never really cared
for
myself but the oil business.
Though, I am very rich, I was never ge! nerous, I 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 and heal me I would live my
life
a different way from how I have lived it.
I have sowed a seed for my healing 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 succor and comfort to the
less
privileged of the Tsunami Victims and the Huricane katrina in USA, 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 India
and
Malaysia. Now that my health has deteriorated so badly, I cannot do
this
mys! elf anymore.
I once asked members of my family to close one of my accounts in Saudi
Bank
and distribute the money which I have there to charity organization and
to
the less privileged in Bulgaria and Sudan-Africa They cashed the money
but
kept it only to themselves.
Hence, I do not trust them anymore, as they seem not to be contended
with
what I have left for them already.
The last of my money which no one knows of is the huge cash deposit of
twenty five million dollars $25 million that I have in the Vault of a
security house in Europe for safe keeping.
I want you to collect this deposit on my behalf and disburse half of it
to
the Huricane Katrina in USA as well as Tsunami Earthquake victims in
Asia
for the less privileged (for charity purpose) and the other half to set
up
an investment that is profit base in other to keep the charity work
alive.
Please send me a mail to indicate your wiliness to assist in this
disbursement.
For your willingness and readiness to act accor! dingly, I will set
aside
20% for you for your time and efforts in caring out this responsibility
on
my behalf while, the remaining 80% will be used by you for both charity
work
and setting up of an investment that is profit oriented to enable you
continue to assist the less privileged from time to time from the
profit you
make from this investment annually.
I need your urgent reply so that I will not have to go on sourcing for
a
credible person to handle this project.
I look forward to hear from you soon.ALways reply to
johnakpo40009@yahoo.com.hk
God bless you.
Mr.JOHN AKPO
