Subject: Dear Beloved.
Hello,
My name is Mr.Paul Vanda , I am from Portugal Please take this serious, I am taking this liberty anchored
on strong desire to ask for your assistance for help. Your consent and urgent attention will greatly be
needed, devoid of apprehensions. I have been diagnosed with Esophageal cancer.It has defied 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.
Now that i have been diagnosed with this deadly disease I have willed and given most of my property and
assets to my immediate and extended family members as well as few close friends .I 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, Somalia 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 Bulgeria
and Haiti, 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 Twenty Million United States
Dollars ($20,000,000,00) that I have with an Finance Vaulting Unit in europe. I will want you to help me
collect this deposit and dispatch it to charity organizations. N/B: Kindly note that 35% of this funds must go
to the tsunami victims,45% to other Charity Organization and 20% for your effort and time.
I cannot talk with you on the phone due to my health situation, as I am using my Laptop Computer to
communicate with you.
If you are interested in carrying out this assignment on my behalf.
