Subject: Can You Render Me This Assistance
Hello Dear
My name is Mrs. Angela White a business woman in London. I have been =
diagnosed with esophageal cancer which was discovered very late due to my =

I have never particularly lived my life so well as I never really cared for =
anyone not even me but my business. Though I am very rich but I was never =
generous.
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. Now that God has called =
me through this way I willed most of my properties and asset to my immediate =
and extended family and as well as few close friends.
I am going in for an operation now and i dont think i will make it. I =
want God to be merciful to me and accept my soul and so with that reason I =
decided to give alms to CHARITY ORGANISATIONS as I want this to be one of =
the last good deed I did on earth.

organizations. I have set aside 40% of the total amount $1 500 000.00 (One =
