Hello Friend,
Its me Obed Hassan from Bahrain
I know you would be surprised at this mail from me. I want to donate what I have to the needy.
I know you would be wondering why i picked you. But someone has to do it. I am old and living with lung Cancer. I have been touched to donate from what I have made from this World to charity through you for the good work of humanity, rather than allow my relatives to use my hard earned funds inappropriately after my death.
I hope to be forgiven for all my sins by ALLAH and I believe he has, because He is merciful. I have been living with Cancer of the lungs for years and i know that the disease has no cure therefore i will surely die. I have made up my mind to give out Twenty Five Million Four Hundred Thousand Dollars($25.4m) towards the fight against cancer, and other human related diseases. I want this to be done through you. Part of the money would also be used to help the motherless, less privileged and also for the assistance of the widows. Presently, i can not answer calls because i have been restricted by my doctor from taking telephone calls because I deserve all the rest I can get.
Presently,I have informed my lawyer about my decision in donating the funds. I wish you all the best, and please use the money well and always extend the good work to others. If you are able to carry out this task,i will inform my legal adviser so that he can arrange the release of the funds to you. I know i have never met you but my mind tells me to do this,and I hope you act sincerely.I will pay you a handsome amount of this money if you will assist me because I am now weak to do things myself because of my illness.
NB: I will appreciate your utmost secrecy in this matter until the task is carried out,as I don't want anything that will halter this my last wish.I will provide you with further details immediately I hear from you.
PLS GET BACK TO ME.

Regards
Obed Hassan
