Subject: RENDER HELP
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 Steven Cohen, a merchant in Dubai, in
the U.A.E. but currently undergoing treatment now. I have been diagnosed
with Esophageal Cancer which was discovered very late, due to my laxity in
carrying for my health. It has defiled all forms of medicine, 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 focus 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 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 in our societies, 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. Now that my health has deteriorated so badly, I cannot
do this my self anymore. I once asked members of my family to close some of
my accounts and distribute the money which I have there to charity
organization and to the less privileged in Bulgaria and Pakistan; they
refused and kept the money to themselves. Hence, I do not trust them anymore
and still want to help the needy, as my family members 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 $12.5 million dollars. I will want you
to help me collect this deposit and disburse it to some charity
organizations and to the less privileged.
Please send me a mail to indicate if you will assist me in this
disbursement. I have set aside 8% for you in your time and patience. While I
wait to hear from you, may God be with you and your entire family.
Remain blessed.
Mr.Steven Cohen
