Healthy medical equipments? And, what's with the random capitalization in this one? Dead give-away. Nothing more than a scammer's attempt to gather personal information, and promise millions in salary...for a price. Hold on to your identity and your money.

Dear Friend,
BlueDragonfly's comments are always in italics.

Subject: Dear Friend,
Dear Friend,
I have been waiting for you since (err...since when?) to come down here (down where, exactly?) and pick your consignment (i know how to pick a nice cabbage, but I'm not sure how to pick a consignment...) but i did not heard anything (...did not heard anything, huh? Speak English much?) from you since then, I have deposited the US$5,000,000.00 with the ALINCO SECURITY COMPANY here in Nigeria (...aha! That's the magic word!), because I traveled to Japan to see my boss and I will not come back till next year ending (...next year ending? Um...what???).I have arranged with the ALINCO SECURITY COMPANY to get your US$5,000,000.00 to you this month and they will be coming to you with the fund inside black portfolio, I would have deposited the fund with Bank for transfer into your own account but the procedure of Bank is too much and they will
required enough fee (...they will required enough fee? The idiotic writing on this one is classic).I drop (...you drop them, eh? Sure you didn't mean you dropped them?) your delivery details with the ALINCO SECURITY COMPANY but I will like (...will like? Verb tense, people!) you to re-confirm the information to them again so that they will not be any mistake when coming with the fund (...this one's actually making me laugh out loud...).
Send the below information to the ALINCO SECURITY COMPANY.(1)Full
name:(2)Address:(3)Tel:I want you to know that you have all right to declare
how you want to receive your fund, I would have prefer the fund to be transfer
to you but I make some searches about the Bank transfer and they told me that
it will cost you the sum of US$1500 (...and there's the catch...I send you $1500, and you send me...absolutely nothing. I'm thinking I should hold on to my cash instead...) to transfer the US$5,000,000.00 into your
account.But I have deposited the US$5,000,000.00 in cash to the ALINCO
SECURITY COMPANY, below is the ALINCO SECURITY COMPANY contact.Director:
Mr.Paul Ego (...Paul Ego? Seriously?) Mobile: +234-80-23-6318-97 Email: (alinco2_2@yahoo.fr) I have paid
the delivery charges and insurance fee to the ALINCO SECURITY COMPANY. The
only Money that the ALINCO SECURITY COMPANY will require from you is $85 (...wait...I thought it was going to cost me $1500, now it's only $85? Make up your mind, dammit.) Dollars for demur-rage,
if you can pay the $85 Dollars to them, they will proceed and get the
US$5,000,000.00 to you in your Country.Please if you want to contact the
ALINCO SECURITY COMPANY, you are to contact them with your portfolio code
number which is (PPL111RSS) and your address where you want them to deliver
the cash to.You are to pay the $85 to the ALINCO SECURITY COMPANY to enable
them to proceed and get the cash to you, don't fail to resend your information
to them for your own good.Regards,Miss. Stella Rose
Ah, yes. You have funds for me...that I have to pay you to get. Suuuuure you do. And names like Stella Rose and Paul Ego? Those don't even sound remotely legit. An award is just that - you should never have to pay for it. Random emails promising millions of dollars are NEVER legit! I received this one three times within a week, too.

(Office of the Under Secretary)
1500 Pennsylvania Avenue NW,
Washington D.C.
28th May,2012
Urgent Attention,
I am Mr.Ban Ki-Moon, Unted Nation Secretary for International Affairs.
Following series of complains from Citizens of the United States as well as
Citizens of Other Countries In Europe over the Discrepancies and fraudulent
ways in which fund transfers are handled by Africans which has made it
impossible for a lot of People to claim their Winning or Inheritance funds
from most African Countries due to frauds and illegal activities, A decision
was reached recently by the United Nation and United States Treasury
Department under the authority of the White House to compel African Financial
bodies (Banks) to urgently release all funds of American,Asia and European
citizens that are trapped in most Banks and Courier Companies in Africa.
(Nice capitalization here. And fantastic grammar. As soon as you see Africa in one of these emails...delete it! Scam, scam, scam.)
It was discovered that some bureaucratic bottlenecks was put by these Banks
and Couriers to make it impossible for beneficiaries to claim their funds so
that they will fraudulently divert those funds to their private accounts.
Consequent upon the aforementioned, I was personally mandated to handle this
matter to ensure that all funds of foreign Citizens and others which are
fraudulently being trapped in African Banks are urgently retrieved and paid to
the actual Beneficiaries under a legal manner. Our team of experts were
delegated to Benin Republic, Nigeria, Ivory Coast and Ghana for this task and
we discovered your File NO: BR227/9005666/00 as unclaimed fund. It was
discovered that officials of the Bank has only put up illegal requirements in
order to make it difficult for you to claim your fund.
The United Nation, Department of Treasury has retrieved all Files of illegal
transactions and we will be working under a legitimate arrangement to ensure
that you follow the normal process to receive your fund.
You are requested to Re-confirm the following information to Barr.Godwin
M.B.A.Harry: (email:godwin_mbah@fm.bb )
1. SURNAME............
2. OTHER NAMES................
3. PHONE NUMBER AND FAX......
4. ADDRESS...........
5. AMOUNT TO BE CLAIMED: $12.800,000.00 USD
7. OCCUPATION....................
8. COPY OF YOUR ID............................
Be informed that the above information will only enable us to make due
confirmation.
We shall ensure that normal process is followed to ensure that your fund gets
to you without delay.Contact Barr.Godwin M.B.Harry who is in Benin Republic as
the Legal Representative to United Nation, Department of Treasury e-Mail
below:(email:godwin_mbah@fm.
Regards
Yet another classic Nigerian scam. Do NOT provide personal information. Do NOT send them money. There IS no fund with your name on it!!! Remember - if it looks too good to be true...IT IS!

HELLO...Greetings to you...
| | | ||||
| ||||||
My name is Barrister : Paul Usman Solicitor.A Personal Attorney to Eng.David,a national of your country who used to work with Agip Development Company here in Benin Republic.On the 6th of April 2009,my client,his wife and their two children were involved in a car accident along Ecowas Road.All occupants of the vehicle unfortunately lost there lives. (There lives? Really? Nice grammar...)
Since then I have made several inquiries to my late client's embassy to locate any of his blood extended relatives,but this proves unsuccessful,After these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to trace his relatives over the Internet, to locate any member of his family but of no avail,hence I contacted you. (So, the email was sent to an unknown number of recipients, but I'm the long lost heir?)
I have contacted you to assist in repartrating (Um...re-what-ing?) the money and property left behind by my client prior to his death before they get confiscated or declared unserviceable by the bank where this huge deposits were lodged.Particularly, the Bank where the deceased had an account valued at about $9.4 million dollars has issued me a notice to provide the next of kin or have the account confiscated within the next 14 official working days.since i have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives for over 3years and some months now,
I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin of the deceased since you are from the same country with my late client,so that the proceeds of this account valued at $9.4million dollars can be paid to you,thereafter you and I can share the money. 48% to me and 47% to you,while 5% should be set aside for reimbursement of any expenses that may incure (Incure, huh? As in, not cured? Or did you mean incur but since you don't speak English you didn't know that?) during the process of the transaction or tax as your government may require,I will secure certificate of deposit and other relevant
approval documents that can be used to back up any claim we may make.All I requires is your honest cooperation to enable us see this deal through.I guarantee that this will be execut (It will be execut, huh? Sure it won't be executed?) under a legitimate arrangement that
will protect both of us from any breach of the law.
Please get in touch with me by my private email :
paul.usman551@gmail.com
to enable us discuss further.
Best regards,
Barrister Paul Usman.
NB:Pls include to me your private telephone and fax number in your response (Please include to you? Um...really? One would think these scammers would at least attempt to use convincingly proper English, but alas...)
Never ever think that someone is just going to hand you millions of dollars. Remember; if it sounds too good to be true, it IS!
