I haven't seen one like this before:

Hello,

My name is DAVID ELLIS, a nationality of United Kingdom,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 givenmost 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,
Somalia 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 Twenty
Eight Million USD that I have with a finance/Security Company abroad. I will
want
you to help me collect this deposit and despatch it to charity organizations.

I have set aside 20% for you and for your time.

NB:Kindly send all correspondence/ response to my confidential email
address :[email protected]

God be with you.

DAVID ELLIS

Don't you hate it when something defiles your medical treatments?

What's funny is that there are several web sites devoted to leading on the scammers, some of the stories are pretty funny.

They had a pretty cool story about this on one of the evening news shows.

Eh.. oh well.

God is just punishing him for having an all Upper Case name. I mean, how dare he think he is that important.
