Dear Friend,
I am Mr. Mohammed Yayah, a merchant in Dubai in the Middle East.Based in the
UK. 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 generous, 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, 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
myself 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 two million dollars $22 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 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 accordingly, I will
set aside 10% for you for your time and efforts in caring out this
responsibility on my behalf while, the remaining 90% 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. God bless you.
Best Regards
Mr. Mohammed Yayah
