HELP DISTRIBUTE FOR CHARITY
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 Willy Kadir 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 comfortable, 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, and they did not do that to my satisfaction thus
keeping 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 a friend of mine who is
a 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 fully with
this mission but he is ready to assist and guide you through the cause of
this project 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 six
million dollars $6,000,000,00 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 private
