Subject: Beloved
Dear In the Lord,
As you read this, I don't want you to feel sorry for me, because, I believe everyone will die someday.
My name is Sani Keita I am a merchant of
Cote 'd ivoire residing in abidjan. 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 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 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 Oman, 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 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 thirty six million dollars 36,000,000 that I have with a Finance/Security Company
here in Europe. I will want you to help me claim this
deposit and dispatche it to charity organizations. And remember that what you make happen for others, God will make it happen for you. The Bible says it this way: knowing that whatsoever good thing any man doeth
the-same shall he receive of the Lord (Eph.6:8) .
And you can not help another without helping yourself.
The liberal soul shall be made fat: and he that watereth
shall be watered also himself (Prov.11:25).
So I have set aside 20% for you and for your time.
God be with you.
Sani Keita.
