DEAR SIR,

MY NAME IS MR IBRAHIM MUMUNI, I AM 31YRS OF AGE, WORK IN THE ACCOUNTS
DEPT. ZENITH INTERNATIONAL BANK, HERE IN NIGERIA.
I HAPPEN TO BE PREVILLAGED TO BE AN ACCOUNT OFFICER TO ONE MR NICOLARS
OWEN, CUSTOMER OF OUR BANK. HE HAS A FIXED DEPOSIT OF USD25.5M WITH US.
UNFORTUNATELY I GOT INFORMATION THAT HE DIED IN A MOTOR ACCIDENT TOGETHER
WITH HIS FAMILY (WIFE AND TWO CHILDREN). BECAUSE HE WAS SUCH A NICE MAN, I
TRIED TO REACH ANY OF HIS EXTENDED FAMILY MEMBER TO COME AND LAY CLAIM HIS
MONEY, BUT TO NO AVAIL DEPOSIT DESPITE ALL MY EFFORTS.

I DO NOT WANT TO DECLARE ABOUT THE MANS DEATH TO THE MANAGEMENT OF THE
BANK, BECAUSE THE DIRECTORS WILL CONFISCATE THE MONEY FOR THEIR SELFISH
BENEFITS, WHILE WE HAVE A LOT OF HELPLESS UNDER-PRIVILLAGED ONES
SUFFERRING OUT THERE.
THEREFORE AS A RESULT OF MY HUMANITARIAN SERVICE CONCERNS, I HAVE
CONSULTED MY CONSCIENCE AND DECIDED TO TAKE THE RISK TO SEEK YOUR
COOPERATION SO THAT YOU CAN PUT IN CLAIMS REQUISITION AS THE NEXT-OF-KIN
TO INHERIT THE DEPOSIT OF THE LATE MR OWEN. I SHALL FURNISH YOU WITH ALL
THE NECESSARY INFORMATION REQUIRED TO LAY THE CLAIM OF THIS MONEY. WE WILL
TOGETHER COOPERATE TO PUT THE DOCUMENTRY EVIDENCES TO PORTRAY YOU AS THE
NEXT-OF-KIN.
ONCE THE MONEY SUCCESSFULLY GETS INTO YOUR ACCOUNT, I HAVE DECIDED THAT WE
SHARE THE MONEY EQUAL AMONGS US,SINCE YOU WILL BE MADE THE BENEFICIARY,
AND WILL MAJORLY INVOLVE IN ALL IT TAKES TO ACTUALIZE THE CLAIM.
PLEASE, ACCEPT MY APPOLOGY, IF THIS CONTACT EMBRASSES YOU, SINCE WE DO NOT
KNOW OURSELVES BEFORE. I GOT YOUR CONTACT THROUGH THE NET SEARCH ENGINE,
BECAUSE I WANT TO CONSEAL THIS DEAL AGAINST LEAKAGE, HENCE I DEEM IT FIT
TO TAKE THE RISK TO CONTACT YOU WHO HAS NO RELATIONSHIP WITHIN OUR
LOCALITY HERE. PLEASE ENSURE ABSOLUTE CONFIDENTIALITY, AS I HAVE PERFECTED
IN PRINCIPLE EVERY PLANS TO ENSURE THAT WE HAVE A SMOOTH AND SUCCESSFUL
HITCH FREE EXECUTION OF THIS DEAL.
I AWAIT YOUR PROMPT AND POSITIVE RESPONSE THROUGH MY PRIVATE E-MAIL
ADDRESS(mumuni_i@usa.com).
BEST REGARDS,

IBRAHIM MUMUNI

People who type with caps lock on should not be allowed near a computer. Especially if they are spammers. :)

I remember posting a news article at xperites a few months ago that reported how a woman got fooled by one of these mails. She worked for a large legal company where she had access to large sums of money. She actually deposited over $100 thousand of the companies money into the scammers bank account. Her ordeal lasted months and she actually received small sums of cash from the scammers, but never more than she gave them. She was discovered by the company she worked for and will be convicted.

Just delete it and block the "@whatever.com" part instead of the whole e-mail...You should stop getting spam from that company of spammers...
