Received this e-mail a few times over the past couple of years. I almost feel like contacting them and playing along. But then it'd be tough to get rid of them afterwards.

Dear Sir,
BUSINESS PROPOSAL.
I am the Treasury Controller, Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation
[NNPC] and a close associate of the immediate past Minister of
Petroleum Resources. The Minister has mandated me to transfer the sum of US$98 millions recovered from an over-invoiced contracts involving the Nigerian National PetroleumCorporation [NNPC] into several private accountin Europe and United States. A total sum of US$82,000,000.00 has been transferred before the emergence of this present Civilian
Administration,leaving the balance of US$16,000,000.00.
I have made proper arrangement/documentation to transfer the balance
which is retained in a coded account of the NNPC with the Central Bank
of Nigeria. We are soliciting that you help us to receive the fund in
trust. We cannot complete this transaction smoothly without the participation of a foreign partner who would provide an account where the funds could be lodged. Since it is a contract payment, thefunds must be remitted to a foreign account. The remittance of the funds requires little documentation. There is no risk involved on your part inthistransaction since the former Minister and I have covered this transaction with adequate contractand external credit documents from the beginning.What we require from you by e-mail or fax are viz:
{i} Acceptance letter of this offer
{ii} Your company name and confidential telephone and fax numbers
{iii} Convincing Honesty, Trustworthiness and Willingness to abide
by the requirements of this proposal paramount of which is
CONFIDENTIALITY. We have agreed that you will retain 25% of the entire
US$16,000,000.00. for your effort in this transaction, 70% for us
partners here in Nigeria and the remaining 5% will be used for defrayal
of incidental cost in the course of this transfer.

not take more than ten working days. And please note that this
transaction must be top secret.reply to my private
