Greetings,
I am Mr.Purshotam Abbi, I am 53years old. Am a citizen of India, but i am resident in United State. I was born an orphan in 1952. I have no father or mother, and i have no relatives. I struggled and Worked Hard as an enginer and Almighty Allah blessed me abundantly with riches. I am not a Happy man. I have no wife and i have no children.I did not get married due i was after money and things of the world, for 2 years now i am seriously sick.
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 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 orpans childrens and aswell 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 my self anymore.
I once asked a close friend of mine to close one of my accounts in India Bank and distribute the money which I have there to charity organization and to the less Privileged in Bulgaria and Sudan Africa he cashed the money but kept it only to himselves.
Hence, I do not trust him anymore, as he seem not to be contended with what I have left for him already. The last of my money, which no one knows of, is the huge cash deposit of two Million dollars $ 2 million that I have in the Vault of The Century Finance company in United Kingdom for Safekeeping. I want you to collect this deposit on my behalf and disburse it to the Tsunami Earthquake Victims in Asia, Hurricane Katrina, Hurricane Rita, Hurricane Wilma for the less Privileged.
Please send me a mail to indicate your wiliness to assist in this disbursement. I will set aside 10% for you for your time and efforts.
I need your urgent reply so that I will not have to go on sourcing for a credible person to handle this project, please if this is what you Know that you can handle kindly respond back to me with the information below.
1 Your Full Name And Address
2 Your Telephone Number And Fax
3 Your Age And Occupation
God bless you as you respond.
