RE: Donation for the lesspriveledged.
I am the above named person from Kuwait.Iam married to Dr.Xaneb Khan whoworked with Kuwait Embassy in Ivory Coast for nine years before he died in the year 2000.
We were married for eleven years without a child.He died after a brief illness that lasted for only four days.Before his death we were born again christians. Since his death I decided not to re-marry or get a child outside my matrimonial home which the Bible is against.
When my late husband was alive the total sum of $7.6Million (Seven Million six hundred thousand U.S.Dollars) was deposited in a bank in Republic of Benin.
Presently,I'm in a hospital where I have been under going treatment for oesophageal cancer.I have since lost the ability to talk my sickness has been confirmed beyound treatment and the doctors on their recent diagnose, confirmed to me that i may not leave more than two more months.
So what kind of help is someone going to give a dieing woman. When this my case came to this announcement from the doctors, I was challenged after watching a CNN news about Mr Buffett, an american rich man who donate about 84% of his whole wealth to the service of humanity and charity.
After watching the news, i asked myself a question.
If a man that is healthy and have no sickness can do this kind of humanitarian service, how much more myself, who have been confirmed at the door post of death.
That was when i came to this decission to use the money my late husband left behind, to contribute to the service of charity and humanitarian service.
And since i can not carry this out by myself, I decided to offer you the taskful service.
Because relatives and friends have plundered so much of my wealth since my illness,I cannot live with the agony of entrusting this huge responsibility to any of them again.
This is how you should utilize the money. Use 5% of the whole money, to cover up any kind of expenses you may involve in receiving this money including the lawyer's fees. I will introduce you to my lawyer, and after my will is prepared in your favour to be the beneficiary to the money. He will guild you until the money is transfered to your account.
Then, you have to take out 20% of this money for yourself, which will serve as your payment to carry out this project. then the rest 75% should go into the charity service.
I don't want a situation where this money will be used in uncharitable way.
As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the lawyer incharge
Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I stated herein. Hoping to hearing from you today through this private e-mail address :sarah_khan252000@yahoo.fr
Thanks
Sarah Khan
