[:@] Dont let you panties get too bunched up about this one! Just learn to hit delete button. This ones a typical scam, I got the same email, those guys sitting in those 3rd world broiler rooms got nothing but time on their hands sending us this crap, its a numbers game to them, eventually they get some unsuspecting soul to believe them. I get a dozen scammers hitting my email weekly, just a major PITA. I dont bother reading the entire messages, it took all of a millisecond for me to read this email and know where it was going. This just goes straight to the trash can.

Just make sure that you have all of your bank account information correct so that you can collect the funds when you are done.&nbsp\\;
&nbsp\\;
I get about 10 of these a week.&nbsp\\; Delete it.

After all the years the scammers have used this they are still using it so they must be having some success with it. Even if the hit rate is 0.001 percent, it's worth the effort to them. What I have trouble with is anyone with enough savvy to use email should know better. I guess it's true... there's one born every minute.

Hard to believe anyone falls for these scams, but I guess they must because they are still sending them out by the ton.

WoooHooooo!!! I stole your offer and set up the deal!!! All I had to do was give this nice man all of my personal info along with my bank account numbers and next week I get to keep $920,000 dollars!!! He assured me it was not a scam and seemed very genuine, so I gave him my Momas info too. She will be so proud of me!!!!!
