Dear friend, This letter may come to you as a surprise due to the fact that we have not yet met. I have to say that I have no intentions of causing you any pains. As you read this, I don't want you to feel sorry for me,because, I believe everyone will die someday. My name is MrJohn Spelling,a merchant in london, but taking treatment in dubai,in the U.A.E. now I have been, diagnosed with prostate and esophageala cancer that was discovered very late due to my a in caring for my health. It has defiled all form of medicine, 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 any one not even myself but my business. Though I am very rich, I was never generous, I was always hostile to people and only, focus 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 I know my time is near, I have willed and given most of my properties and assets to my immediate and extended family members and as well as a few close friends.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, London and Ireland. Now that my health has deteriorated so badly, I cannot do this my self any more. I once asked members of my family to close one of my accounts and donate the money, which I have there to charity organization in Bulgaria, 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 is the huge cash deposit that I have with security firm Abroad .I will want you to help me collect this deposit and dispatched it to charity organizations and let them know that it is I John Spelling that is making this generous donation. I am writing this from my laptop computer in my hospital bed where I wait for my time to come. I pray for you to support and assist me with good heart. be blessed my beloved, John Spelling.
