    What a professional looking email address. Especially the 4 t's as Scott with 2 t's was obviously taken.

    As for the original post....

    Demanding that you act immediately - check
    Promising huge sums of money - check
    Asking for a (initially) small amount of money to be made by a payment method such as western union - check
    Tries to convince you/tell you they're trustworthy/honest - check
    Asking for the money to be sent to Nigeria - check
    Poor use of the English language - check (although admittedly its a lot better than most I've seen, perhaps they're using other scam money to educate themselves into being a better conman/woman).

    I see they've also added something new to the mix with this one - the threat/fear element.

    The sad fact is there are people who fall for these scams. As someone else posted, people think "oh its only x amount, smal risk for a big payout" but thats only the start. Suddenly theres been a problem and you need to pay x amount more. And every time the victim hands over money to them, they (the victim) becomes more invested. They're usually promised that "this is the last obstacle to their payout" only for another one to spring up in its place.

    And its the exact reason I never trust the word of anyone who has an interest in getting me to part with money. A little bit of caution can go a long way.
    You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means - Inigo Montoya, The Princess Bride

    I've never really given them that much thought. Mostly because my spam filter ensures the only time I see them is when somebody posts one up on some board or other.
