It's the old Nigerian/401/471 scam. Someone has some money tied up in a way that they can't get it out of the country and if you'll be willing to let them place it in your account they will gladly give you a portion of it...yadda yadda yadda. That crap has been around for at least 8 years and has a lot of different faces, but it's all the same. Delete the e-mail and don't worry about it.

What do they say? "If it sounds too good to be true it probably is" I been hit up by dozens of those clowns, Topago S Africa is the worst place for that, any one that contacts you for a deal is just wanting to get access to your bank, credit account or phone. Don't even reply to them, delete.

Here's another one... You get an email form what appears to be your bank. It has all the appearences of your banks website. They tell you there appears to be unuseal activity on your account.. and want you to verify your account info... WARNING... Your bank will NEVER ask for your full SS number to confirm your account not on line and not on phone, they will NEVER ask for your compleate bank card info, but these fake people will.
They get your card info... and then stamp out a card with your megnegtic information on it... and start withdrawing your bucks...
BE AWARE and delate it, dont answer it... it is all trash.
