give it a rest, anyone expecting me to fall some 'get rich quick idea' should read previous blog entries.

Dearest

Greetings of the lord and may the blessings of my father in heaven be unto your household.
great is he who gave us his love not like the love of the earth but his divine love and salvation.

By the grace of God i am Mr. Paul .O.Johnson a liberian and by the grace of God a succesful Business man.I have in my days travelled far and wide doing importation in automobile parts i am however residing in Abidjan where i have my business location,

I however now regret never living a godly life in my healthy days, i came to know god now that i am so ill and surfering from cancer that has defiled all medical attention.
i took business so serious but i now know that it doesnt profit a man to gain the world but lose his life.

i have been told by my doctor that the cancer has eaten so deep that i have zero chance of survival,i have been into shock and back from it.but my greatest regret now is that i never got married and my friends now flee from me since they thought my ailment has drained me financially.

i only give thanks to god for the little wisdom he gave to me.which i have now started given out here in my environment for his work since i may not have need for them soon,and part of that i will also give for his work around the world so as to accomplish my heart desire of touching lives globally before i finally meet my creator.

I have left in a trunk box in my security company a total sum of five million five hundred thousand Dollars($5.5m) and this is what i have made up my mind to give to a good christain led by the spirit of the lord or to any church that is willng to help the sick,orpharns,disasters victims and to the less priviledged outside there this has been my heart desire.if you can be of any reasonable assistance for this fund to be used properly and strictly as i have said,then you can reply me and tell me your details so as to forward it to my security company so as to make some neccesary changes for the fund to be sent to you or you can come personally whichever way you choose.

expecting to hear from you soonest as you get my mail

thanks.

In the news (not too long ago)
Prescott accountant sent to jail (March 10)
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/4794586.stm
An unqualified accountant who hid his criminal past has been jailed for four years for stealing almost £1m from John Prescott's department.
Robert Adewunmi, 32, lied about his qualifications to work for the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister.


wonder what he would have done if he was a "qualified accountant". The strangest thing about this story is that none of the major news sites seems to have a picture of the guy.
Some even had the picture of the Deputy PM displayed on the news story (as if he had anything to do with the crime). I wish there was a pic to confirm if the guy is truly Nigerian...

The name and type of crime may fit the profile of a typical naija criminal but i still need to see a picture to confirm. If we don't know what the guy looks like he can easily change his name when he gets out and slip back into our community (thats assuming he's actually Nigerian...)
