Greetings!
It is indeed my pleasure to write you this letter, which I believe will be a surprise to you as we have never met before, and I am deeply sorry if I have in any manner disturbed your privacy. Please forgive this unusual manner to contact you, but this particular letter is of exceptional and very private nature. There is absolutely going to be a great doubt and distrust in your heart in respect of this email, coupled with the fact that, so many individuals have taken possession of the Internet to facilitate their deeds, thereby making it extremely difficult for genuine and legitimate business class persons to get attention and recognition. There is no way for me to know whether I will be properly understood, but it is my duty to write and reach out to you.
Please, I want to introduce myself and this business opportunity to you My
name is Vincent Ola,a bank accountant.
I wish to know if we can work together.I would like you to stand as the
next of kin to my deceased client who made some deposits to my bank.
He died without any registered next of kin and as such the funds now have
an open beneficiary mandate.
If you are interested you do let me know so that I can give you
comprehensive details on what we are to do I urgently hope to get your
response as soon as possible.
Best regards,
Vincent Ola

Looks like the "419 Scammers" where still at work.....It's hard to believe that people still fall for these things...I heard your supposed to forward these to
FTC at spam@uce.gov....But I'm not to confident anything will come of it...

It's amazing how so many people fall for these things. Sad really.

The first time I read that response V posted it on MillBusters and I laughed
for days. I still think it's one of the best saying's around.
I bet the scammer laughed too
