The old story about having cancer and wanting someone to donate their money to charity.

From: WAHID FAHID <fahid@mail.com>
Date: Sat, Sep 20, 2008 at 7:49 PM
Subject: Dear Sir/Madam,
To:

Hello Friend,

I sincerely hope that this letter will not come to you as a surprise or an embarrassment since we neither knew each other before nor had any previous correspondence nor contact. I wish to use this medium to get in touch with you first because it’s fastest means. I believe it will be a surprise to you as we have never met before, and I am deeply sorry if I have in any manner disturbed your privacy.

Please forgive this unusual manner of contacting you. Let me start by introducing myself. My name is WAHID FAHID , From kuwait. I have been diagnosed with Oesophageal cancer. It has defied all forms of medical treatment, and right now I have only about a few months to live, according to medical experts. I have not particularly lived my life so well, as I never really cared for anyone (not even myself) 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 that was the only thing I cared for. 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. I believe when God gives me a second chance to come to this world I would live my life a different way from how I have lived it. Now that God has called me, I have willed and given most of my property and assets to my immediate and extended family members as well as a few close 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 this to be one of the last good deeds I do on earth. So far, I have distributed money to some charity organizations in the U.A.E, Somalia and Malaysia. Now that my health has deteriorated so badly, I cannot do this myself anymore. I once asked members of my family to close one of my accounts and distribute the money which I have there to charity organization in Bulgaria and Pakistan; they refused and kept the money to themselves.
Hence, I do not trust them anymore, as they seem not to be contended  with what I have left for them. The last of my money which no one knows of is the huge cash deposit of Six Million dollars ($6,000,000.00) that I have with financial institution abroad. I will want you to help me collect this deposit and dispatch it to charity organizations. N/B: KINDLY NOTE THAT 80% of these funds must go to victims of recent disasters and another 20% for your effort and time. Upon receipt of your response, I shall communicate with you, and let you know the details of the transfer. Whatever your actions and your decision, I thank you for taking the time to read this email.

Regards,
Wahid Fahid.

To: undisclosed-recipients

Barrister Ricado Portal
Estudio Juridico Castellana
Caracas, 27
Madrid 28010 Spain.

Dear Sir/Madam,

Before I proceed, I must first apologize for this unsolicited letter
to you. I am aware that this is certainly not a conventional way of
approach to establish a relationship of trust, but I do have limited
choice. My name is Barrister Ricado Portal a Solicitor working with
Estudio Juridico Castellana with address: Caracas, 27 Madrid 28010
Spain Actually, I got your contact address from the internet while
searching for a reputable business partner in your country’s public
records. My Late client Mr. Johannes Reinhold , a business mogul who
had casinos and restaurants, lived in Spain for many years, my client,
her husband and their one child were involved in an underground train
crash in the eastern city of Valencia as Victims of the Tuesday, 4
July 2006, Incident that befall the Spanish.

You can confirm through this website
(http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/5143738.stm)

Before his death, on my advice as his lawyer he deposited One Trunk
Box/Diplomatic Personal Treasure, containing the sum of $7.5M (SEVEN
MILLION, FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND US DOLLARS) cash with a security
company here in Spain, on a highly security form but he did not
disclosed the content of deposited diplomatic consignment to the
company, for security reasons. The security company has mandated me to
present any family heir/inheritor for claims, before the consignment
gets confiscated or reverts to the Bureau of Diplomatic Security, as
unclaimed diplomatic immunity. So I decided to search for any of my
late client’s relative which has been very difficult for me, as he did
not declare any other person, address, partner or relatives in the
official paper works of his diplomatic consignment deposit. Mr
Johannes was my private client. I will not like you to involve any
third party in this transaction, just me and you .Besides I am doing
this on my own personal capacity and do n
ot wish to bring my office into i

Against this backdrop, my suggestion to you is that I will like you as
a foreigner to stand as the next of kin to Mr. Johannes Reinhold, with
my position as his lawyer, I will now appoint and recognize you as the
heir. I will obtain every relevant document from the probate to make
your claim legal. Note that this process is not risky in any manner
and it is completely legal but might not be justified morally. Once
the fund is released to you, I am proposing 40% of the total sum to
you for your involvement.10% would be set aside for any expenses that
could be incurred during the transaction.

I would retain 50% for myself. Note that when the whole documents are
ready, it would be your responsibility to approach the bank and make
application for the release and transfer of the said funds. If this
proposal does offend your moral values please pardon me otherwise
reply via my private email address: ricadoportal@mixmail.com for
further clarification. Please be kind to get back to me if you are not
interested so that I can further my search for another partner.

Best Regards

Barrister Ricado Portal

Subject: Strictly for you only
To:

Dear Sir,
In this world of not knowing whom to trust i have decided to intimate you with a personal guided financial finding in my bank branch (National Investment Bank of Ghana) in which i am the acting managing director. I have been acting as the manager pending when the manager who is on course will resume for six months now and in my capacity i have discovered this account which have been left untouched for two and half years. On careful investigation i discovered that the owner of this account originally maintained two accounts with the bank. One of the accounts is savings account while the other is domiciled dollar account. The savings account was closed exactly one year eight months ago by a lady who claimed to be a fiancйe and business partner of the account owner.

On my curiosity i discovered that the owner of the accounts who was an oil merchant from your country died of heart failure two years ago and since then nobody have made any claim on the current account and no transaction have been carried out in the account throughout the two years. On checking the opening files of the account i also discovered that the owner has no next of kin and his last known address is Golden Tulip Hotel where he stays anytime he is in the country.
I have made all required bank inquiries which are normally made to trace owners of account which are left untouched for over two years and i discovered that nobody outside the bank have knowledge of this account. I have thought over this account for six months now and since it is left untouched with no one having knowledge of the account i have decided to have the money in the account removed to a safer place. The amount in the account is $2.6m with accumulated interest sum of $260,000.00(Two Hundred & Sixty Thousand Dollars)It is for this reason that i am contacting you so that i will use you to remove the money and close the account. I decided to contact you, a foreigner because of protection of my status and making sure i am not short changed which will happen if i deal with someone from my country. It is also much easier for the money to be claimed and transferred outside the country. It is for the reason of closing the account that i am contacting you.

I want you to stand as the beneficiary of the account by filing for next of kin of the account so that i will officially approve your request and have the money paid in your name. We shall share the money 80% for me and 20% for you. All i need from you is your co-operation and secrecy during and after the claim.

Get back to me with your full names, contact address, your age and marital status and phone number(s) for communication and i will employ the service of an attorney who shall process the paper work. As soon as I receive your response I shall open up on all details

Thank you and awaits your response ASAP.
