Mr. Amos,
My name is Patrick Smith. I grew up in Columbus, Georgia, and I recently had to move to Indiana for a job. I am a certified public accountant. I had to leave my family behind, including my five year old nephew. I miss him terribly.
I am writing to ask you to give me $1,000,000 as a gift. It is not tax deductible, but it would be a great charitable donation to me so that I can spend time with my nephew and be able to watch him grow up. I know you like to give to charitable causes, and I respect that about you. My cell phone is (706) 442-5988. My email address is PSmith5194681153@aol.com. I am visiting Columbus during the week of Christmas, and if you\'d like to give me one million dollars, I would be happy to appear to a crowd for PR purposes. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Patrick Smith
