These crooks never give up. Is there a cop out there to stop these scam artists? [Anyway, the guy freaked me out when he addressed me as 'My Dear'.]
My Dear,
I am contacting you with reason that we are going to
be of a great use to each other
My name is Prince Bruno conty, I am the first son
of Late Albert Chidi Conty. Untill his death, my
father was the former foriegn Affairs Minister of my
country (Abuja-Nigeria).
Before I go into further details please be informed
that I am writing without any other person`s
pre-knowledge of my contacting you, Therefore I will
appreciate same attitude to be maintained all through
Days before the death of my father he revealed to me
about a deposit of a trunk box which he deposted with
my name in a private security company in Accra, Ghana
for security reasons, although he registered the
contents as precious stones but the real content of
these trunk box is fhe sum of USD 24.6M.
(Twenty Four Million Six Hundred Thousand United
States of American Dollars) which was his share
from a secret sale of Diamond when he was in the
office, he could not deposit this funds in a financial
institution for fears of the funds being confiscated.
After the burial of my father, I made frantic effort
on the best way to handle this money. I sought advice
from an attorney who advised that I must seek for a
trustworthy foreign business partner.
However, I sincerely ask for your assistance to get
this Funds out of this country, and your share for
assisting us will be 25% of the total sum, 5% will be
use for upsetting all the expenses incurred in the
course of concluding this venture and the
remaining 70% that will be for me and my family
The consignment will be released within seven 7 days
of my being in receipt of your reply via my email
address and I want to assure you that this transaction
is 100% risk free.
In case you have any question do not hesitate to
contact me as I wait for your swift and favourable
response to my email

Here's how it works. They send you a money order. You send them a few grand in turn [thinking the money order must be good since your bank apparently cashed it] but - surprise, surprise! - the money order kicks back because your bank then finds there are insufficient funds that will cover that piece of worthless paper since, you see, there are no funds to cover it, and YOU have just been victimized.
[Sorry about the run-on sentence, but you know it IS after midnight here in Southwest Florida.]
Again, these scumbags count on greed and naivete. [But don't forget, as the old saying goes: "If it sounds to good to be true, IT IS."]
