Dear Williams,
I am Barrister Henry Okocha, a solicitor at law. I am the personal attorney
to Mr. John Williams,a national of your country, who used to work with
Aspanda Development Union. Here in after shall be referred to as my
client.On the 21st of April 2002, my client, his wife and their only
daughter were involved in a car accident along sagbama express road.
All occupants of the vehicle unfortunately lost there lives.
Since then I have made several enquiries to your embassy here to locate any
of my clients extended relatives, this has also proved unsuccessful. After
these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to track his last name over
the Internet, to locate any member of his family hence I contacted you.
I have contacted you to assist in repartrating the fund valued at US$13
million left behind by my client before it gets Confisicated or declared
unserviceable by the Security finance Firm where this huge amount were
deposited.
The said Security Finance company has issued me a notice to provide the next
of kin or have the account confisicated within the next fourteen official
working days.
For the fact that I have been unsuccesfullin locating the relatives for over
3 years now, I seek the consent to present you as the next of kin to the
eceased,since you have the same last name with my client, so that the
proceeds of this account can be paid to you.
Therefore, on receipt of yourpositive response, we shall then discuss the
sharing ratio and modalities for transfer.
I have all necessary information and legal documents needed to back you up
for claim.
All I require from you is your honest cooperation to enable us see this
transaction through. I guarantee that this will be executed under legitimate
arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law.
Please get back to me through my office email address
(okochachambers@zipmail.com.br)
Best regards,
BARRISTER
HENRY OKOCHA.

Yeah I was considering writing back but got a bit worried they might be able to find out some details about me because it was sent to my university
email address.

Interesting that your Uni doesnt filter spam, as I know most of them do.
Just register for a free hotmail account, with junk details. 
My mate got done for sending a mass email to everyone on campus the other week (20,000 people). Got his account suspended, which was quite amusing.
(He was advertising USB memory sticks as he has a load to sell). He got an email from: wedontlikespammers@gmail.com hehe

Worryingly (maybe "not"
My mother has had one POSTED to her with stamps and everything.
They better have a better hit rate than with free emails or they will be out of pocket!

It amazes me that ANYBODY takes this seriously. I mean in the first paragraph alone there are 2 errors in grammer and 2 missing spaces. You would have
thought that this would have clued people in that this may not actually be from a member of the legal profession...
Then again if they were from the Americas that would possibly explain the grammer mistakes.
Who the f**K tightened this up!
