KINDLY FULFILL MY LAST WISH

Dear Sir/Ma,
As you read this, I don\'t want you to feel sorry for
me, because, I believe everyone will die someday.
My name is Hassan Mohammed a merchant in Dubai, in
the U.A.E.I have been diagnosed with Esophageal cancer.. It has
defiled all forms of medical
treatment, 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 was always hostile to people and 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 to
come to
this world I would live my life a different way from how I have lived
it. Now that God has called me, I have willed and given most of my
property and assets to my immediate and extended family members as
well as a few close friends. I want God to be merciful to me and
accept my soul so,
I have decided to give also to charity organizations, 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 the
U.A.E,Algeria 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
and distribute the money
which I have there to charity organization in Bulgaria and Pakistan,
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 no one knows of is the huge cash deposit of
eighteen million dollars
$18,000,000,00 that I have with a finance/Security Company abroad. I
will want you to help me collect this deposit and dispatched it to
charity organizations.Please endeavour to reply me on my direct email
address of mohassanno2001@yahoo.fr for confidentiality.I have set
aside 10% for you and for your time.God be with you.
Yours,
Hassan Mohammed.
KINDLY FULFILL MY LAST WISH
