As always, an examination of the from, reply-to, and to addresses reveals that nothing - absolutely nothing - matches.  Let's read on...

Good Day,
How are u doing today ? Apologies! I am a military woman ,seeking
your kind assistance to move the sum of ($27M USD) to you, as far
as i can be assured that my money will be safe in your care until
i complete my service here in Afghanistan and come over next
month.  

Wouldn't an American soldier refer to returning stateside as coming home, rather than "coming over?"  Just a thought, but pay close attention to the writing.  The use of grammar is atrocious.

This is legitimate, and there is no danger involved.If
interested, reply immediately for detailed information.

As with every good scammer, she tries to make me feel comfortable and assure me she isn't a scammer...

reply-to:		Mrs Elaine Costanzo Duke <elainecostanzoduke222@yahoo.com>

First clue - the from and reply to addresses don't match.  And I'm fairly certain that the Department of Homeland Security doesn't use yahoo for official emails...

UNITED STATE OF AMERICA
U.S.A. Homeland Security Department.
Bureau of Consular Affairs
Washington , DC 20520

Greeting from USA Embassy,  

Greeting?  So, only one then.  Ok, and USA Embassy?  Who the hell talks like that?

Attn Dear Citizens!  

Note here that "Citizens" is plural, yet the email was sent only to me.  So there are more than one of me?  I'm getting confused...

This is to notify you that your consignment has been in our custody we are waiting for you to comply with our instructions before your package delivery will be effected to your delivery address. We have been waiting for you to contact us regarding your consignment box which Courier Company suppose to deliver to you which is 
on hold by U.S.A. Homeland Security Department Bureau and requesting for clearance certificate which will be obtain from the origination of the consignment box before it will be released. As a result of you not comply within duration given by Benin Government that is the reason the consignment box was diverted to treasury but the 
government of American have decide to make American Citizen happy by been willing to release the package consisting of a Bank Draft Total sum of $4.8millions usd written with your name as the beneficiary within 4 hours immediately you secure the clearance certificate today.

Since when is a delivery "effected?"  That isn't even the correct verb to use here.  Bad grammar...Hmm...potential scam?  And it's from Benin...I'm sensing a classic 419 scam coming...

After the meeting held by our board of director (only one director on the board I see...) which was concluded that the delivery of your consignment to your address must be complete within 4hrs upon your comply to our requirement which is by sending the sum of $375.00 to enable us obtain the needed certificate and Your consignment for onward delivery to your house immediately without any further delay we decide to contact you because we confirm some offices are trying to deceive you.  

Fairly sure someone who works at an Embassy has at least a base knowledge of the English language, and proper grammar.  Maybe not, but... 

Note that your consignment box has been arrived in US embassy and waiting to receive clearance certificate before the gate pass is given. Mean while you are advice to reconfirm the below information upon contacting us to avoid delivery to wrong person.  

Has been arrived?  These people are so incredibly bad at what they do.  Seriously.  I'm advice to reconfirm?  Did you mean advised?  Because I think you might not speak English.  Maybe.

1, Full name:
2, Country:
3, Address:
4, Occupation:
5, Age/sex:  (This is relevant why?) 
6, Cell-Phone:
7, Nearest Airport:
8, Your alternative email address:

Once you notify us with the above information include with the $375 payment we will release your consignment to you. Note that you are expected to pay only $375.00usd for clearance certificate and you are to pay it to Benin Republic as the origination of the consignment box in favor of:(EKI CHIWEDU) as our accountant officer in 
Benin Republic Send the $375.00usd through western union or money gram once you receive this mail with the information below for immediate release of your consignment box, 

Just...read the paragraph above again.  The grammar alone gives it away.  Plus, this one's greedy.  No $75 for this scammer, they want $375.  Because, you know, everyone has that lying around to send off to some idiot trying to steal money...

Receiver name: EKI CHIWEDU
Country: Benin Republic
City: Cotonou
Text question: When
Answer: Now
Amount necessary.$375.00usd

Once you send the money, try to notify us with the MTCN for easy pick up and for immediate action on the release of your consignment. Please treat this as matter of urgency .Note that any unclaimed consignment will be return to the Courier Company after 3 days for final diversion as a result of failure to comply with our instruction and claim your consignment which arrived from Africa to our local airport here in USA. So you are urgently advise to comply with our demand so that we will release your consignment we are working for the best of America citizen.  

And again with the reassurance that they're working with my best interest in mind.  The best of America citizen.  Something tells me that may not be true...

Treat with dispatch,
Yours Faithfully,

Greetings

I am sorry to encroach into your privacy in this manner. I found your contact particulars in an address journal and I find it pleasurable to offer you my partnership in business. I only pray at this time that your address is still valid. I want to solicit your attention to receive money and gold on my behalf.

Does the above really sound like it's written by an American Army Captain?  No.  No, it does not.  

I am Capt. William D Swenson , an officer in the US Army,and also a West Point Graduate presently serving in the Military with the 82nd Air Borne Division Peace keeping force currently deployed in Afghanistan.

Sure you are.  I totally believe every word you're telling me.  Not.

We were moved to Afghanistan from Iraq as the last batch just left, and i really need your help in assisting me with the safe keeping of money and gold and to conceal this kind of money became a problem for me, so with the help of a German contact working here, and his office enjoys some immunity, I was able to get the package out to a safe cation entirely out of trouble spot.

Out of trouble spot?  Are you serious?  Who the hell talks like this?  And how stupid do you think people are?

You will be rewarded handsomely if you could help me secure the funds until I conclude my service here. If you can be trusted, i will explain further when i get a response from you.

God Bless America.

In the course of our General Auditing and Account revision of the third quarter of 2017, we discovered that the bank accounts belonging to some benefactors have been changed on the basis that the owners have died some time last year or have given out an authorization note of change of data. After the investigations however, it was revealed that there are foreigners who are collaborating with Retired Staffs to make these changes illegally without the knowledge of the Benefactors and one traced to your own change is this (MR. GERSHON SHAPIRO) who said you are dead, hence they have forwarded some documents/Death certificate so as to divert your fund. The bank account below was forwarded/presented by (MR. GERSHON SHAPIRO) as the new account for receipt of the funds:

Bank Name: Meta Bank
P.O. Box 2136 Austin, Texas 78768-2136 USA
Meta Bank direct deposit bank account number is 70002760492969
Meta Bank Routing number is 073972181
Beneficiary Name: Mr. Gershon Shapiro

In order to confirm if actually this is true and hence decided to write to your email which after 2 days from now and there is no response, it will be ascertained that you are truly dead,then proceed with the telegraphic transfer. If proved otherwise by you to be alive?, please forward to us all the related benefactors particulars including your BANK PARTICULARS,contact address, these details from you will help reach a conclusion that you still alive.

Anything contrary to this claim will help us charge this man to court and prosecute him while your fund will be paid to you immediately without any further delay.

We await your urgent response.
