Subject: CHARITY HELP
Dear 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 Peter Water, a merchant in Dubai, in the U.A.E.I have been diagnosed with Esophageal Cancer which was discovered very late, due to my laxity in carrying for my health. It has defiled all forms of medicine, 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 focus 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 properties and assets to my immediate and extended family members and as well as a few close friends. I want God to be merciful to me and accept my soul and so, I have decided to give arms to charity
organizations and give succour and confort to the lesspriviledged in
our societies, 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 my self 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 and to the less priviledged 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 eight million dollars($8m) that I have with a Security Company in Europe for safe keeping. I will want you to help me
collect this deposit and disburse it to some charity organizations and to the
less priviledged.
Please send me a mail to indicate if you will assist me in this disbursement. I have set aside 20% for you for your time and patience.
You can e-mail me at my private e-mail address: p_waterfarmily@yahoo.co.uk for easy communication While I await to hear from you, may God be with you and your entire
family.
Remain blessed,
Peter Water.
