From: "Mr Christoper Morgan" <christ_morgan2002@yahoo.com>
Date: Tue, 06 Jun 2006 03:45:59 -0700
Subject: Urgent HELP NEEDED
Dear Beloved,
I know this email will come to you in an odd manner as you have not
received any prior communication from me before now.But be that as it
may.
My name is Mr. Christoper Morgan, I am from Portugal .I have been diagnosed
with Esophageal cancer. It has defied 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 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 U.A.E, Somalia 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 Million United States
Dollars($30,000,000,00) that I have with an Finance Vaulting Unit Abroad.
I will want you to help me collect this deposit and dispatch it to charity
organizations.
N/B:Kindly note that 35% of this funds must go to the tsunami victims,60%
to other Charity Organization and 5% for your effort and time.
I cannot talk with you on the phone due to my health situation, as I am
using my Lap Top Computer to communicate with you. You should respond to
this e-mail if you are interested in carrying out this assignment on my
behalf.
pls get back to me on this e-mail address: c.morgan1@mac.com
God be with you.
Christoper Morgan
