Thanks to Mr Alhaji Musa Sa’id Ibrahim (wonder if this is the real name)!
The
scammer story goes that a rich man just died in an accident, and he
has the same First Name as the scammee (aka potential victim) He is
asking to present the scammee as a relative of the deceased so as to
collect the money. The split is 30% of $18.5million.. which is not too
bad either.
When are they going to change the storyline? It is getting boring.
This email was received hot from a quick submission, and some details are blanked out.

I am contacting you to assist me in repatriating the money and property left behind by my client before they get confiscated or declared unserviceable by the bank where this huge deposit were lodged.
Already, the finance company where the deceased had an account valued at about US$18.500 million dollars has issued me a notice to provide the next of kin or have the account confiscated within the next twenty-one official working days.
Since It has been unsuccessful in locating the relatives for over 3 years now, I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin of the deceased , so that the proceeds of this account valued at US$18.500 million dollars can be paid to your account
and there after we can share the fund (money)in the ratio of 7:3. That is I will have 70% of the proceed while you have 30% for your assistance I have all necessary legal documents that can be used to back up any claim we may make.
