Hope I Can Trust You?
As you read this, I don't want you to feel sorry for me,
because, I believe everyone will die someday.
My name is SHADAK SHERIFF a merchant in Dubai, in
the U.A.E.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 Inever really cared for
anyone(not evenmyself)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
nowknow 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 wayfrom
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
extendedfamily 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 alms to charity organizations, as I
want this to be one ofthe last good deeds I do on earth.
So far, I have distributedmoney to some charity
organizations in the U.A.E,Algeria and Malaysia.
Now that my health has deteriorated so badly, I cannot
do this myselfanymore. 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 trust themanymore, as they
seem not to be contended with what Ihave left for them.
The last of my money which no one knows of is the huge
cash deposit of eighteen million dollars $18,000,000,00
that I have with a finance company abroad. I will want
you to help me go there and collect this deposit and
dispatched it to charity organizations.
I have set aside 10% for you and for your time.Please get
back to me assoon as possible so that i can furnish you
with the relevant documents and to get a proof of myself
to you.
My family are really working to see that this great dream
of mine remaing a thing of thought.
Best regards as i await your quick responce.

God be with you.
