Dear Friend,
I strongly apologize for this unsolicited mail, but I am constrained
by circumstances.
Please permit me to introduce myself, I am Mr.kenny Ahmed.
As you read this, I don't want you to feel sorry for me, because, I
believe everyone will die someday.
I was a Crude Oil merchant in Romania, 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 am 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 haveor 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, 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 Austra,cameroun,liberia,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 trustthem
anymore, as they seem not to be
contemted with what I have left for them.
The last of my money which no one knows of is the huge cash deposit of
fifteen million dollars
$15,000,000,00 in a bank.
I need you to help dispatched the money to charity organizations.
I have set aside 10% for you and for your time.If you feel up to it
and you are honest, please contact me asap.
God be with you.
Kenny Ahmed.
