Subject: Hello, Reply immediately
Hello,
Please take your time to read this message, although we have never met
before. I know also that you will be amazed at the level of trust that I am
willing to place in a person that I have never seen nor spoken . I have no
other option as my days are short.
I carried out a heart operation on the 23-04-2008 and the Doctors have just
informed me that I can not live more than 7days; I had a serious bleeding
after the operation. I have decided to release the sum of $1.970.000.00 (One
million Nine Hundred and seventy Thousand US DOLLARS) deposited with my
Bank; I want you to use these amount to make the world a better place for
the poor and less privileged, help the needy and also help your family
members.
I have no child, no wife, and no family; lost my whole family to a fatal
accident in London. I am would turn 77 years a day after tomorrow. I took
this decision because I was raised from a motherless baby's home and
presently, I'm hospitalized here, where I am undergoing treatment. I was
raised in a motherless baby home, my wife too was raised in a motherless
baby home so I don't have any relatives. that's is why I have decieded to
contact you.
Upon the reciept of you positive response, I will give you the bank
information where the money is deposited so that you can contact them
direcly, I will instruct them to release and transfer the money into any
account you shall provide.
I wish you the very best in life. Always pray for my soul to rest in perfect
peace, I would be a very happy man even in death if you use these amount for
Good work to help humanity. I am 77 years old now and was good to everyone..
I would want you to please assure me that you would help me carry on the
good work.
Joshua David
