Spelt cheque wrong too. Dodgy individual! They don't use the spelling of cheque in the United States. It's check. So it may be valid

I had an email similar to this, from my great great grandfather who died in Nigeria at the age of 146. Left me his life savings, went ahead gave him my bank details and i'm now sitting with my feet up in the Carribean.
This is the good life.

It's straight up. I got contacted by the same Mr. Ben David and he asked for the same details, but it's only $6.25Million in my case. Anyway, I have sent the details and a few more bits of stuff, some PIN numbers , account numbers, sort codes, scans of my signature and passport, but nothing too tricky. You should know that you might have to release some funds to cover the admin charges, about 15k - which sounds like a lot, but nothing compared to the money coming.
I am in the waiting phase now. Mr David told me to be patient for a few months - it's so exciting. I haven't heard from Mr David, for a while and he can't seem to get to his phone. He must be working very hard to get the money to me. ...are you sure you have his number right - I had a different one for him.

I'm actually a bit worried because it seems several accounts I don't have in banks I have never used are subject to security checks. And somehow the word has got round that I'd like an extra 3" on my dick.
