FOR GOD AND HUMANITY
As you read this, I don't want you to feel sorry for me, because I
believe everyone will die someday.
My name is Patricia Gazi a merchant in Dubai,in the U.A.E. I worked
with Kuwait oil Company and eight years as a contractor. Ihave 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 ever 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.
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, 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 only person I would have trusted to do this with is
my lawyer but he is a very busy man as he is occupied with other official
tasks, thus he would not have the time to assist me with this mission as I
want to see this done before my death.
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/Security Company abroad. I will want you to help me collect
this deposit and dispatch it to charity organizations.
I dont want a situation where this money will be used in an ungodly
manner. Hence the reason for taking this bold decision. I am not
afraid of death hence I know where I am going. I know that I am going to be in
the bossom of the Lord.Exodus 14 VS 14 says that the lord will fight my
case and Ishall hold my peace.I shall give you more details once you reply this
mail.
I have set aside 20% for you and for your time .God be with you.
I want you to please reply me through my private email address.patricial_gazi@excite.com
The Lord is my Strength
Remain blessed
Patricia Gazi
