Subject: Urgent Assistance
Dear sir/madam
As you read this, I don't want you to feel sorry for me, because, I
believe everyone will die someday. My name is MUSTAPHA WAZIRI a
merchant,in Dubai, in the U.A.E.I have been diagnosed with sophageal
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 members 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 U.A.E, 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
eighteen million united states dollars $18,000,000,00 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 affected in
the recent Tsunami Disaster in Asia( 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. Mustapha Waziri.
