My dear beloved one,
As you read this, I don't want you to feel sorry for me, because, I believe everyone will die someday. My
name is
Donald Anderson, a merchant in U.K.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 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. 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 organizations in Asia and U.K, 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 twelve million dollars $12,000,000.00 that I have with
a finance institution
in Europe. I will want you to help me collect this deposit and dispatche it to charity organizations.
I have set aside 20% for you once you do this for me.May the Lord be with you.Please reach me through
my personal email address of: donaldanderson4@sify.com . Please remember to keep this known to
yourself alone and I for now,as I am doing this as a contribution to life on earth.I will also appreciate if you
provide me with your contact mobile and home phone numbers,so that i can call you and put you through
the whole process.I will really appreciate your quick response.
Stay Blessed,
Donald Anderson.
