Subject: FROM ...Mrs Aishat Mohamed....
Dear Brothers and Sisters
! Greetings in the name of Allah, the most beneficent,the most
merciful.
My name is Mrs Aishat Abdulahi Mohameed, a widow to Late Mr A, Mohammed
I am 74years old, Presently I am suffering from long time cancer of the
breast, from all
indications, my condition is really deteriorating and i am very much
afraid
of my dorctor's report, infact my conditon is very bad now,
My late husband was killed during the Gulf war, and during the period
of our
marriage we couldn't produce any child.
My late husband was very wealthy and after his death, I inherited all
his
business and wealth, The doctor has told me that I may not live beyond
this
year.every new day is like a bonus to me.
So now i have decided to divide part of this wealth,to contribute to
the
propagation of Islam and in assisting the less-privileged Muslim
faithful
and all humanity in Africa and thruoghout the Muslim world, I chossed
you
after visiting the website and I prayed over it, I discussed this with
my
Attorney,Barrister Tareq Amin.I am willing to donate part of the sum of
US$4,000,000.00(Four Million US Dollars) for the development of
the
holywork as well as a distribution to aid muslim faithfuls and also for
the
less privileged, including ohpans who lost their mothers thruogh this
deadly
illness[ cancer]nomatter their faith.
Please I want you to note that, this fund is deposited in a Security
Company
in Dubai,United Arab Emirate (UAE). For that, my lawyer Mr.Tareq Amin
will
file in application for the transfer of the money in your name as you
wish
provided you are ready to use part of this money for this purpose.
You will therefore have to travel to Dubai, to sign for the official
release
of this money as well as advice on how you want the money remitted to
you
own account. my Attorney
will accompany you on this trip.
Lastly I honestly pray that this money when transferred will be used
for the
said purpose because I have come to find out that wealth acquisition
without
Allah is vanity upon vanity.for this reason I have decided to set-aside
40%
of this money for the service of humanity and the work of Allah.
May the Grace of Allah be our guide and be my refuge when i leave this
world. Moreso,I decided to offer you 30% While 20% will be transfered
to the
account of my Lawyer, Barrister Tareq Amin as compensation after
successful
conclusion.
The remaining 10% is to cover the expenses both from your side and the
side
of my Lawyer who will assist you until every thing is over.
Yours in Allah,
Mrs Aishat Mohamed.
