Dear beloved
I greet you with all my heart. I know this e-mail will be a surprise to you
considering what i will tell you but it is true and not a joke. I am from
Portugal but i have been a foreign contractor in Africa almost my life and
i am also a gold dealer. I have US$4.5 million deposited in a bank in Ghana
West Africa which i want you to receive the fund for humanitarian work and
charity on my behalf. I want you to use the fund to open a charity
foundation with my name and also invest part of it in a lucrative business
that will generate fund to sustain the foundation.
I have been diagnosed with 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 do not have any child with my late wife and my only
brother who is my family has betrayed me and my trust. I cannot entrust
this fund into his hands as he is now in jail for attempting to kill me in
the hospital because of my refusal to give him some other documents of my
properties for him to sell and lavish the money.
I intend and willing to empower the change of ownership for the transfer of
my Deposits to your personal possession for further Investment and Charity
Disbursement to the Less Privilege and Homeless. If you do not believe me
and do not feel comfortable with this e-mail, please do not reply but if
you are willing and capable to handle this transaction and the project, I
would love you to get back to me with sincerity of heart. I am not afraid
to die, that's why i want to do the right thing now because if i leave this
world without making someone the beneficiary of that fund, the government
of Ghana will confiscate it and it will become the fund of the government
which I know wont be use for a good purpose.
Can i have your consent and approval? if yes then reply me with your full
details which i shall forward to the lawyer in Ghana whom you will work
with to have a successful transaction.
Your full names
Address
Telephone number
Occupation
Marital Status
Age
Remember that accepting this responsibility only means you are rendering
service to humanity and you are also doing the work of God. I wish you will
make the right decision, Thank you for your due consideration.
Yours sincerely
Alberto Cesario
