nature of the situation that we find ourself.

with my family, I lost my father and my kid sisters who were also on board
in the accident. After the accident, I have been battling with some health
problems from the major injuries that my mother sustained in the cause of
accident. Recently, my doctor told me that she have some few months to
live due the surgery that was conducted but if we have money she can still
be transfer to oversea hospital for her final surgery but what disturbs is
her inability to walk again, due to the injuries that she sustained and
damaged of her spinal cords in the accident. Having known her condition, I
decided to sell My father's valuables properties i.e 200KG OF ALLUVIAL
GOLD DUST in which my mother has given me the approval to do so and am
having confidence that this might come through your assistance.

I took this decision because I am the only surviving person and nobody
else that will inherit this.

Hi Ralph!

I would like to point out that this Gold scam is very likely coming from a spoofed email address.

I believe Mr. Ahmed Morgan is spoofing Mr. Ali Hassan's email address and neither The Arab Banking Corporation or Mr. Ali Hassan has nothing to do with this scam. :D
