Subject: PLEASE HELP
Dear Friend,
My name is Waheed Azeez 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 (Twenty million five hundred
thousand u.s dollars) that I have with a finance/Security Company abroad. I will want you to help me
collect this consignment and dispatched it to charity organizations. I have set aside 20% for you and for
your time.
God be with you.
Waheed Azeez
