In this variant of the "419" Advance Fee fraud the scammer claims to be a rich man, often a merchant who is now dying of esophageal cancer. The country varies, often it's Dubai or another Gulf country or the UK.
Enclosed pictures supposedly showing the sender in hospital were actually copied off the website of an esophageal cancer patient in the USA who kept a web diary until he passed away in 2005. It's sickening how the scammers even use the memory of dead people for their crimes!
Usually when we manage to trace the source of the scam emails, it turns out to be from Nigeria or another country in West Africa.
It's the familiar advance fee scam: You (the victim) are to receive millions of dollars for essentially doing very little. Eventually you will be asked to wire thousands of dollars to a total stranger posing as a lawyer or a security company or another intermediary claiming to control that money. If you do that, you will lose the money sent and will never see the promised but non-existent fortune.
The female equivalent of the "dying merchant" scam is the "dying widow" scam.

Subject: re: ATTENTION PLEASE!!!
Dear sir/madam.
PLEASE ENDEAVOUR TO USE IT FOR THE CHILDREN OF GOD. As you read this, I don't want you to feel sorry for me, because, I believe everyone will die someday. My name is PATRICK DUKE a merchant in Dubai,in the U.A.E.I worked with Kuwait oil Company and eight years as a contractor,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.
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 dont want a situation where this money will be used in
an ungodly manner. Hence the reason for taking this bold
decision. I am not afraid of death hence I know where I
am going. I know that I am going to be in the bossom of
the Lord.Exodus 14 VS 14 says that the lord will fight
my case and I shall hold my peace.I shall give you more
details once you reply this mail.
I have set aside 20% for you and for your time
God be with you.
Mr.Patrick Duke .

My dear friend, I have received your mail and i must first of all show my appreciation ,over the fact that you have given heed to the entreaty of a dying man. Like i had told you in my previous mail, i lived a very reckless life when it mattered most. All i thought about was my various investments,it is that same care free attitude that is going to cost me a lot now. When i discovered this ailment, it dawned on me that i had been living a very vain life.Then the need to affect the lives of those in need became very paramount in my thoughts.This appears to be a case of mercy after death as i no longer have the strength to do those things i used to do when i was still very full of life. My dear friend , in my resolve to actualise my dying wish, i have been able to support charity to a very large extentaround the middle east and europe.Then my health became a sorry tale, that at this particular point in time, i live at the mercy of various drugs and operations which certainly can not remedy anything.My close family members are however not happy with the way i have disbursed everything of mine to the motherless babies and the less priviledged.That was why they failed to help me actualise my dream of supporting charity. They held for themselves the funds i made available and went as far as even trying to terminate my life when the hour(though very short )has not come.All relationship with me has been severed ,and they are of the opinion that the last of my fortune has been spent.Incidentally, the sum of twenty four million dollars(united states) lies in a security company in Europe , and well packaged in a consignment. That is the last i have here on earth after my medical bills have been estimated and all expenses paid pending when i shall be no more.These funds i wish to entrust to you , to help propagate the works of charity where ever your location is.By so doing, i would need your utmost sincerity and honesty to carry the venture along successfully. It would be required of you to furnish me with your full names and address,telephone and fax numbers , to enable me put a letter to the security company, making you the eligible beneficiary to the funds with them. Once this is done,you shall make arrangements with them on how the funds would be transfered to your location.I beg of you to deal with me honestly and render me your assistance to the fullest of your capacity.you would be helpng a dying man.Most importantly you would be touching the lives of a huge number of people.I hope i would be able to count on you while i wait impatiently for the time to come.My bones are slowly cleaving to my skin.I hope to hear from you as soon as possible. Warmest Regards, Larry Moore This is my very confidential email,i check everytime from my labtop.i expect further correspondence to be through this chann

I sincerely hope that after you read this mail you will respond to my call,let me start by introducing myself my name is Robert Mark. i'm 65 years old ,a british living in Dakar ( Senegal).
I am a businessman and owns two companies here in Dakar, married with two children. My wife and two children died in a car accident six years ago but before this happened my business and concern for making money was all i lived for i never really cared about other values in life but since the loss of my family, i have found a new desire to assist helpless familes. i have been helping orphans in motherless homes, i have donated some money to orphans in sudan, south africa, cameroun, brazil, spain, austria germany and some asian countries. Before i became ill, i kept some money, ten and a half million dollars ($10.5million) to be precise in a long term deposit account in a security company in Spain .
Presently, i'm in a hospital my doctor told me i have prostate cancer that i have a few months to live.it is my last wish to see this money distributed to charity organizations. because so much of my wealth has been plundered by relatives and friends since my illness,hence i cannot live with the agony of entrusting this huge responsibility to any of them since the money in the security company is the last fund that i have left. Right now i am partialy stranded in the hospital due to the nature of my sickness so i am appealing to you to help me collect the deposit from the security company in Spain and distribute it amongst charity organizations. I would want you to use your discretion to distribute the money and keep 10% of it for yourself.
Feel free to reimburse yourself when you have the money for any cost you might have incured during the process of collecting and distributing the money to charity organizations. May the good Lord bless you and your family.
Please reply to this mail [email protected] as i can only communicate through my laptop which is by my bed,as soon as i get your response i shall then give you the necessary informations you need to collect this money
With Regards,
Mr Robert Heritage

It has defiled all forms of medicine, 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 focus 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 properties and assets to my immediate and extended family members and as well as a few close friends. I want God to be merciful to me and accept my soul and so, I have decided to give arms to charity organizations and give succour and confort to the less priviledged in our societies, as I want this to be one of the last good deeds I do on earth. Now that my health has deteriorated so badly, I cannot do this my self 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 and to the less priviledged but 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 ten million dollars($10M) that I have in Europe for safe keeping. I will want you to help me collect this deposit and disburse it to some charity organizations and to the less priviledged. Please send me a mail to indicate if you will assist me in this disbursement.I have set aside 10% for you for your time andpatience. You can e-mail me at:[email protected] While I await to hear from you, may God be with you and your entire family. Remain blessed, steve Bastiaan.
