Subject: PRIVATE MAIL!!!
DEAR BELOVED,
HOPE YOU ARE GOOD OVER THERE. I AM SORRY IF I AM INTRUDING INTO YOUR PRIVACY BY CONTACTING YOU SINCE I DO NOT KNOW YOU PHYSICALLY. THE FACT IS THAT I HAVE BEEN DIRECTED BY THE SPIRIT OF HUMANITARIAN SERVICE TO YOU KNOWING FULLY WELL THAT YOU WILL FAIR ENOUGH TO RESPOND TO THIS TASK THAT I SHALL BE PUTTING FORWARD TO YOU.
AS YOU RIGHTLY KNOW, OUR TODAY'S WORLD IS GOVERNED BY GREED, WICKEDNESS, HOSTILITY AND HATRED. PEOPLE NO LONGER FEEL SAFE DEALING WITH CLOSE FRIENDS, RELATIVES, NEIGHBOURS AND LOVED ONES. TRUST ARE BETRAYED BY PEOPLE YOU LEAST EXPECTED.
I AM SO SORRY FOR NOT INTRODUCING MYSELF TO YOU BEFORE NOW. MY NAME IS KALIM DURAK FROM RIYAHD, SAUDI ARABIA. I DO NOT FANCY RACIAL DISCRIMINATION SO IF YOU ARE ONE OF THOSE THAT THINK YOUR RELIGION OR RACE IS SUPERIOR TO THAT OF OTHER PERSONS, PLEASE DO ME THE FAVOUR OF NOT REPLYING THIS MAIL.
I HAVE SPENT 57 GOOD YEARS IN THIS WORLD AND HAVE WITNESS THE GOOD, THE BAD AND THE UGLY SIDES OF LIFE. I HAVE LEARNT NOT TO VIEW LIFE FROM JUST A SINGLE PERSPECTIVE BECAUSE LIFE IS UNPREDICTABLE.
MY REASON FOR CONTACTING YOU IS TO COMBINE OUR IDEAS AND DEDICATION TO TOUCH THE LIVES OF THE LESS-PRIVILEGE IN SOME PART OF THE WORLD SO THAT A GOOD LEGACY WILL BE LEFT BEHIND AFTER OUR TIME ON EARTH. I AM ACTUALLY IN THE HOSPITAL SENDING THIS MAIL TO YOU AS I HAVE EXPERIENCED ONE TRAUMA AFTER THE OTHER. MEDICAL EXPERTS HERE HAVE INFORMED ME I MIGHT NEVER LIVED TO SURVIVE THIS AILMENT THAT HAS PLAGUED THE LAST FEW YEARS OF MY LIFE. THIS IS BECAUSE THIS DEADLY AILMENT HAS AFFECTED MY MOST VITAL INTERNAL ORGANS.
SOMEHOW, I NOW FEEL SAFER DEALING WITH STRANGERS THAN PEOPLE I KNOW DUE TO CONSTANT BETRAYALS I RECEIVE FROM LOVED ONES. NOWADAYS ONLY FEW THINK ABOUT ASSISTING ORPHANAGE HOMES AND OTHER CHARITY ORGANIZATIONS AROUND THE WORLD DUE TO SELF-CENTREDNESS. THE RICH ARE GETTING RICHER AT THE EXPENSE OF THE POOR.
PLEASE RESPOND TO THIS MAIL AS SOON AS YOU FINISH READING TO LET ME KNOW YOUR OPINION ABOUT ASSISTING THE LESS-PRIVILEGED AND IF YOU HAVE EVER GIVEN IT A THOUGHT TO HELP THEM ONE WAY OR THE OTHER. I HAVE A DREAM TO SHARE WITH YOU AND I HOPE AND PRAY I AM COMMUNICATING WITH THE RIGHT PERSON.
THANKS FOR NOW AS I AWAIT YOUR SOONEST RESPONSE WITH:
YOUR FULL NAMES, ADDRESS, PHONE/FAX NUMBER AND YOUR COUNTRY. YOUR RESPONSE SHOULD BE FORWARDED TO THE ADDRESS BELOW: ajkal.durak@yahoo.ie
THANKS FOR YOUR ANTICIPATED RESPONSE AND DO HAVE A GREAT DAY!!!
REGARDS.
KALIM DURAK
