Subject: PLEASE I NEED YOUR HELP. ccdwf
Greatings.
My prayer for you is that the love of God and his happiness
will remain and abide with you for ever more.
This letter may come to you as a surprise due to the
fact that we have not yet met. I have to say that I
have no intentions of causing you any pains so i
decided to contact you through this medium .
As you read this, I don't want you to feel sorry for
me, because, I believe everyone will die someday.
My name is DORRANIAN DAVOUD MOHAMMAD a merchant in IRAN in the
I have been diagnosed with prostate and
esophageal Cancer that was discovered very late
due to my laxity in caring for my health. It has
defiled all form of medicine 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 only focus 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 I know my time is
near, 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 and Schools in
the Iran.
I have decided to give alms to charityorganizations,
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 Iran ,
London and Ireland. Now that my health has deteriorated
so badly, I cannot do this my self any more.
I once asked members of my family to close one of my accounts
and donate the money, which I have there to charity
organization in Bulgaria, 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 is
the huge cash deposit to the tone of ($20 Million usd )
that I have with Financial Firm Abroad .I will want you to help me collect
this deposit and dispatched it to charity organizations
and let them know that it is I DORRANIAN DAVOUD MOHAMMAD that is
making this generous donation.
I am writing this from my hospital bed where I wait for my time to come.
I pray that God uses you to support and assist me with good heart. if you are intreseted
in helping me please reply me on this email ( dorraniandav@walla.com )
God be with you
DORRANIAN DAVOUD MOHAMMAD
N:B : PLEASE REPLY BACK THROUGH MY CONFIDENTIAL EMAIL ADDRESS IT IS MUCH MORE
