Subject: TRUSTING YOU ON THIS
Blessed One,
As you read this, I don't want you to feel sorry for me, because, I believe
everyone will die someday. My name is Hussain El Amin a merchant in Tunisa
and Dubai.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, Malaysia and some countries in
Africa. 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 Eleven Million United States Dollars $11,000,000,00 that I have
with a Security Company abroad.
I will want you to help me collect this deposit and dispatched it to charity
organizations. I have set aside 5% for you, your time and also any expenses
incured during this Great task. God be with you.
Hussain El Amin
