Since most of the scam mails are getting scooped up by spam filters these days, we like the idea of scam emails that use all CAPS in their subject header. Thank you very much, it has been easier to find them in the spam folder.

In this latest scam email, the "concept" of the scam has not changed much, i.e. someone rich had died, no relatives to take over the cash, and BINGO, you are the hero to help spend about 40% of the US$20 million. OMG, WOW!!!

Since there are so many websites like "hotscams.com", scaring helpful people about such scams and hoaxes, they have referred to a website just to prove that the rich guy had died... here: http://www.bromike.com/departed/egypt.html.

The scammer also
"guarantee you that this will be executed under legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law (LEGITMATE BY MY DEFINITION)"

and

"I know there may be scams and junk mails flying here and there on the Internet but certainly; this is not one of them
(THIS IS CERTAINLY NOT ONE OF THOSE YOU RECEIVED, BUT DEFINITELY ANOTHER NEW ONE, GET THE ENGLISH?).

Now I urge you to take this message serious and with an open mind, with good faith and trust (AND LET ME SCAM YOUR MONEY).

Join me and I am assuring you that you will never be disappointed (I MEAN I WILL NEVER BE DISAPPOINTED... NOT SURE ABOUT YOU)."

VERY URGENT US$20 million!!!!

Up till today none of his relatives has come forward to claim his contracts fund with the NIGERIAN NATIONAL PETROLUM CORPORATION (NNPC) I have made several enquiries to locate any of my client's extended relatives, but it was proved abortive, as he has no wife. After these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to contact you to assist me and claim this money valued US$20 Million as the next of kin of my late client before it gets confiscated or declared unserviceable by the NNPC / THE BANK.

I will obtain all necessary documents on your behalf for the claim. All I require from you is your honest cooperation to enable us see this transaction through. I guarantee you that this will be executed under legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law.

However, I am compensating you with 40% of the total amount, now all my hope is banked on you as I really wants to invest this money in your country, were there is stability of Government, political and economic welfare.
