As you read this, I don't want you to feel sorry for me, because I
believe everyone will die someday. My name is Mr.Abdul Nasser Naji,a
merchant Dubai in the UAE. I have been diagnosed with Esophageal Cancer which
was discovered very late,due to my laxity in caring 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 alms to charity organizations so as to
bring succour and comfort to the less priviledged 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 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 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
twenty four million dollars($24,000 000.OO) that I have with a Security
Company outfit in Europe for safe keeping. I want you to help me
collect this deposit and disburse it to some CHARITY ORGANIZATIONS, THE LESS
PRIVILEGED AND VICTIMS OF CURRENT HURRICANE KATRINA, AND OTHER NATURAL
DISASTER.
Please send me a mail to indicate if you will assist me in this
disbursement.I have set aside 30% for you for your time and patience.
You can e-mail me at: nnasser4@kupolokun.com while I await to hear
from you, may God be with you and your entire family.
Remain blessed.
Mr. Abdul Nasser Naji
