I received this email just a few minutes after replying to my client in email. Not a strange thing by now, but I wonder why so many people still get scammed into such gimmicks. The things people will do to get easy money... sighz.

Geerting To You
With due resperct and humblelity. I am Mrs.ALICE BENSON. from Tunisia but now undergoing medical treatment. I was married to MR. BENSON. who worked with a cocoa company in ABIDJAN for nine years, before he died in the year 2002. We were both married for eleven years without children.
He died after a brief illness that lasted for only four days. When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of $ 6.2 million deposited in a company here in Cote D' Ivoire. And he daposited it as family valuebles not as money. I will send you the contact details of the company as soon as you indicate your interest.
Recently, my Doctor told me that I will die soon due to my cancer illness. Having known my condition and believing the doctor I have decided to donate this fund to avoid total loss to church, Less privilege, or better still a Christian individual that will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct herein.
This money should be used to help churches, orphanages ,widows and propagating the Gospel and to ensure that the house of God is maintained. Please do not fail to spread the funds across the globe especially AFRICA as soon as you receive the money.
I took this decision because I don't have any child that will inherit this money and my husband relatives are fighting over the properties and I don't want my husband's hard earned money to be misused by their greedy attitude. I don't want a situation where this money will be used in an UNGODLY manner, hence the reason for taking this bold decision. As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact information of the company.you can rich me through my private email box (Mrs_alice_benson0101@yahoo.fr) for security reasons
God bless you.
Yours, Sincerely.
Mrs.Alice Benson
Apart from the scam technically, what outrages me the most is someone trying to scam in the name of GOD The Almighty! We have enough sophisticated warlords presenting wars on behalf of their religions, we do not need more to scam innocent people for money in the name of God. It's such a disgrace...
Oh by the way, grammar, spelling and sentence structuring sucks! LOL!

Suuuurreee~ I rather keep the money for myself. K?
ROFLMAO!
It is interesting to read your spam mail once in a while. I think the worser scams are those posing as paypal or a bank asking you about your details
arzhou,
Yea true. They try all kinds of ways possible to scam...
I received at least 5-10 of this kind of mail everyday. It's really pathetic that no matter how hard to try to block them, they keep coming in.
mr. simplicity
Thnks for dropping by. You are right. Sometimes I wonder how can we put a total stop to this mails.

Awww... I almost thought she wanted a toy boy. I seriously thought I was worth that muchie. LOL!
Hmmm... well there is actually a reason for the bad spelling and grammar and so on. Its to prevent the spam filters from picking them up. So words like Fr8e and R*ch appears in the vocabulary of these spammers.
I get so many of them (especially in my office) that i just mass delete them instantly. Oh yes, I find that google mail is SUPERB in filtering out spam. Absolutely no other email compares to that man, which is why I have gave up my hotmail, yahoo mail and other accounts!
cool insider,
Thanks for telling me that, I seriously didn't know. Hmmm now I know why the spelling errors now...
I hope my hosting acct coming up will be able to filter out these mails.
alamak! You have such a low opinion of Aunty uh?
No, I meant I thought she wanted to pay me 6.2mil to be her toy boy. It's a good deal with Euro-SGD convert you know? LOL!
