I reckon I have commented this kind of scam e-mail a dozen times already. It’s the cancer tear jerker appealing to people’s good naturedness.

By the way the domain “saeedahmed.org” does exist, which is very unusual. It’s parked at a French host provider without any content. The domain was set up in April 2008.

Now why would a dying man set  up a new domain? I reckon we will see more of this fellow in the future.

Here are the registration details and as you can see, Saeed Ahmed is a Nigerian.

Am I surprised? Of course not!

Dear Friend,

As you read this, I don’t want you to feel sorry for me, because, I believe everyone  will die someday,and am contacting you because i  really do need your help,and i want you to help me with all your effort and time for just seven to fourteen workings days of your time.I want you  to be honest and truthfull with me that you will help  me with my last  wish as a dying man. My name is Saeed Ahmed a merchant in Dubai, in the U.A.E.I have been diagnosed with Esophageal 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 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 also 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, Algeria and Malaysia. Now that my health has deteriorated so badly, I cannot do this myself any more. I once asked members of my family to close one o f 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 Eighteen Million Dollars $18,000,000,00 in side two boxes that I have with a Finance/Diplomatic Company Abroad. I will want you to Act as my Beneficiary who will help me contact the security finance company on my behalf to discuss the terms and condition of getting this deposit out from thier custody and also helping me to dispatch it to the charity organisations  Reply to this email with your full names,contact address,tel number  and fax to enable me ask my doctors lawyer to arrange for you a power of attorney that will give you full legal backing as my beneficiary.

Kindly get back to me with trust and sincerity that you will help me on this regards.Here is my personal mail box:saeed-ahmed102@live.com

I have set aside 30% for you and for your time. God be with you.
Saeed Ahmed.
