Subject: PLEASE READ AND REPLY
Beloved friend,
As you read this, I don't want you to feel sorry for me, because, I believe
everyone will die someday. My name is Kenneth Ramza a merchant in Dubai,in
the U.A.E. I worked with Kuwait oil Company and eight
years as a contractor. 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 ever really cared for
anyone(not even myself) but my business. Though I was 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. so, I have decided
to give alms 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 only person I would have trusted to do this
with is my lawyer but he is a very busy man as he is occupied
with other official tasks, thus he would not have the time to assist me
with this mission as I want to see this done before my death. 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 dispatch it to charity
organizations. I dont want a situation where this money will be used in an
ungodly manner.Hence the
reason for taking this bold decision. I am not afraid of death hence I know
where I am going. I know that I am going to be in the bossom of the
Lord.Exodus 14 VS 14 says that the lord will fight my case and I shall hold
my peace.I shall give you more details once you
reply this mail.
I have set aside 20% for you and for your time. God be with you. I want you
to please reply me through my email

Remain blessed
