TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN
HAVE GOOD THOUGHT FOR PEOPLE
Dear friend,
As you read this, I don\'t want you to feel sorry for me, because, Ibelieve everyone will die someday. My name is Jussi Jarvi a merchantfrom Norway, I have been diagnosed with Esophageal cancer .It hasdefiledall forms of medical treatment, and right now I have only about a fewmonths to live, according to medical experts.I have not particularlylived my life so well, as I never 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 thatwas 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 have or make allthe money in the world.
I believe when God gives me a second chance to come to this world Iwould live my life a different way from how I have lived it. Now thatGod has called me, I have willed and given most of my property andassets to my immediate and extended family members as well as a fewclose 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 thisto be one of the last good deeds I do on earth.
So far, I have distributed money to some charity organizations in theU.A.E, Somalia and Malaysia. Now that my health has deteriorated sobadly, I cannot do this myself anymore. I once asked members of myfamily to close one of my accounts and distribute the money which Ihave there to charity organization in Bulgaria and Pakistan; theyrefused and kept the money to themselves. Hence, I do not trust themanymore, as they seem not to be contended with what I have left forthem.
The last of my money which no one knows of is the huge cash deposit ofTwenty Eight Million dollars ($28, 000, 000, 00) that I have with afinance/Security Company abroad. I will want you to help me collectthis deposit and dispatch it to charity organizations.I have setaside 20% for you and for your time.
Please send your reply to my email: jussijarvi1992@yahoo.no
God be with you.
Jussi Jarvi
