I got this email today. It somehow made it into my inbox, through all my spam filtering.


PAYMENT NOTIFICATION

TEL:+234-8032354131
Email:martins_00091@yahoo.com.co
Our ref CBN/TD/0021/069
Attn:
RE: PAYMENT NOTIFICATION OF OLD CONTRACT/INHERITANCE ARREARS.
We have the pleasure to inform you of an approval obtained from the new President Alhaji Umaru Musa Yaradua. The Senate Committee on Contract/Inheritance Payments to pay the entire amount owed and due to you in settlement of fund.
We have noted with concern the wrongful withholding of your long overdue payment by a syndicate of corrupt public officers who made several unsuccessful attempts to divert your funds into their corrupt private accounts overseas. This discovery was made recently by a report submitted to my office by the President and the Senate Committee for the Review of
Foreign Debts.
Based on this approval, we have already credited the entire sum in you favour through our overseas paying bank, Please, kindly reconfirm your details and the Receiving Bank details to confirm with what we have in our records to avoid wrongful diversion.
On behalf of the Federal Government of Nigeria, we regret all financial losses you may have incurred in the past as a result of official misconduct and we wish to record here our appreciation for the great patience exhibited by you and members of your company in waiting for this payment.
Congratulations!
Yours truly,
DR MARTINS UMEH
CONTROLLER TREASURY BOARD.
Foreign Operation Dept/Treasury (CBN).
NOTE: That we have made the lodgement of your funds in our overseas correspondence company's account with the HSBC bank in London for onward transfer to you.

Haha.
I don't usually get spam because I use two seperate emails, the one we talk on is my main email, and my other is for anything I have to sign up for.
I don't open emails from someone I don't know anyway. LMBO or ROFL

I had an old email I used for everything and consequently I recieved so much junk mail that I used to get heaps of emails like the one you posted......yes they are good for a laugh .......... Right On! but awfully sick! 😢

OR...you could have replied to the email and said.....
sorry I don't have a bank account so could you send me your bank account details and I'll withdraw the funds from your account instead.

Heard that Nigeria had lots of scammers.

Try sending this back:
Hi, I have confirmed my account information with you 3 days ago when you sent this mail. Just to let you know, I have also forward this to the CIA as part of the company policy to ensure security of our finance. I hope to hear back soon.
