As always, the from and reply-to don't match. I already know this is a scam, but let's read on and see what other clues we find.
My Dear Friend,
Greetings to you.
Please do not view my plea as a contrived plot.My trusted family attorney who would have executed my WILL & TESTAMENT on my behalf died early this year after a brief illness.I therefore prayed fervently and by the special grace of GOD,i was led to you.I am Mrs.Mary Louis,from United Kingdom,I am 62 years old. I am suffering from cancer of the
lungs and it has affected part of my brain cells due to complications.My condition is deteriorating and according to my doctors i may not be alive in the next couple of months,unless there is a divine intervention.
Pretty standard stuff above. God led "her" to me, and of course she's very ill. I'm going to bet that she wants my help with a substantial inheritance from a late husband...
I was orphaned as a child and got married to late Engineer.Steve Louis for twenty years without having an offspring.My late husband had chronic cardiovascular condition and died of cardiac arrest few years ago.Steve and I lived in Nigeria for over 18 years,where my husband a petrochemical engineer by profession worked and rose through the ranks
and became an executive director in a multinational oil servicing and exploration conglomerate, before his untimely death.He also established huge private investments that i supervised before his death and which forms the major source of our fortune.
Gee, how did I guess her beloved husband died and she's sitting on a fortune? People...there is NO fortune! Just some dipshit in Nigeria (most likely) trying to scam unsuspecting victims out of money.
Consequent upon the shocking demise of my priceless husband, i opted as a rule, not to re-marry. When medical reports revealed that my cancer ailment have become terminal & more so because i do not have a direct next of kin to bequeath all that STEVE & I labored for,i sold off all our choice assets,landed properties and other valuable family treasures and deposited the proceeds amounting to USD$10,000,000.00 (TEN MILLION DOLLARS ONLY) with Uba Bank plc. The management of the bank has written me as the sole beneficiary of the fund because of the unserviceable status of the fund over the years and suggested to me in a 2 paragraph statement to issue a letter of authorization to someone who can manage the fund on my behalf because of my terminal illness and also threatened that the fund could be
confiscated upon my failure to adhere to their rules and regulations s clearly spelt out in their code of conduct.
....Aaaaaaand there's the fortune, and she needs to gift it to someone. Surprise, surprise. And, it's sitting in the United Bank of Africa...
I am on admission at the intensive care unit of a London hospital,located at Fulham road in west London United Kingdom. It is the leading cancer treatment hospital in the world.I am currently undergoing treatment there for late-stage terminal cancer of the lungs. I am computer literate, I rarely talk but has my personal laptop with me and has the permission of my physicians to use it,hence I am writing from my sick bed in the (ICU).It is my last WISH that 85% of this fund is invested substantially in any charitable organization
of your choice and administered as you may deem fit,especially to the orphanage homes.You are at liberty to also donate part of the funds to churches and mosques and to those struck by natural disaster.I have earmarked 5% of the total fund to run cost of administration of WILL & TESTAMENT and also on logistics and other sundry arrangements that you may require.
Terminal cancer, blah blah blah. These guys really need to come up with a new angle. These are just WAY too predictable.
I crave your indulgence as a God fearing individual that equally has high moral pedestal and who is also an uncommon humanitarian that cares so much about the plight of the less-privileged as much as i do, to take it upon yourself and use this fund for the above mentioned purposes. This is a painstaking decision i have taken in other to help
humanity in my little capacity as a people driven entrepreneur and a very God fearing woman before i bow to God's sovereignty.
.....And the scammer's attempt to prey on my religious beliefs. Pardon, but I'm pretty sure a God-fearing individual wouldn't be trying to scam people. Just my opinion, though...
Note that as soon as I receive your reply and personal information as listed below, I shall avail you with the official contact information of the Uba Bank plc officials,to enable you contact the Bank without delays.I will also issue you with an official letter of authorization,so that my bankers will recognize your status as the new beneficiary of my ESTATE, FUND, WILL & TESTAMENT. Interestingly 10% of the total sum is set aside as your compensation for accepting to play this significant role for me and i hope you will appreciate my kind gesture.
She's in London undergoing treatment, but the United Bank of Africa has her funds? Common sense, guys. There's no ailing widow and no fortune. I can promise you that without a doubt.
Let me remind you that the fund has an open beneficiary mandate and as such,it is whom i personally authorize or appoint to act on my behalf that the bank will ultimately recognize and release the funds to and by this memo,the onus has fallen on you to assume this selfless and noble responsibility that will catalyze change by exploring and promoting the development of new interventions that will benefit the poorest of the poor when the fund is transferred into your bank
account.
"Selfless and noble responsibility..." this one's really trying to make me feel like a hero. Dude, no. You need to step up your game with a more original storyline.
Please assure me that you will not treat this offer with levity but
will consciously yield my bequest continued existence.

As always...don't fall for it. There's no money to be made. This moron is literally sending out hundreds of this exact email. What will happen is you'll respond, and there will be some sort of fee required for the bank to release the funds to you. It's theft, plain and simple. There's NO money, and no helpless cancer patient. If you're curious about these scammers, check out 419eater.com. They have a plethora of photos of these dumb asses.
