Content preview:  Dear Friend, As you read this, I don't want you to feel
  sorry for me, because, I believe everyone will die someday. My name is
  BATES ALAN 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 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, Algeria 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 eighteen million dollars $18,000,000,00 that I
  have with a finance/Security Company abroad. I will want you to help me
  collect this deposit and dispatched it to charity organizations. I have
  set aside 10% for you and for your time. God be with you. BATES ALAN
