This one is a bit different.

My full name is Anthony Cortese,an American soldier, I am serving in the military of the 1st Armoured Division in Iraq , I and my fellow superior moved funds found in a container only God knows where it came,from, the total is $5,000,000.00 (five million US dollars) . Click on this link to read about even that took place here:-
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/2988455.stm


Basically since we are working for the government we cannot keep these funds, but we want to transfer and move the funds to you, so that you can keep it for us pending our soonest arrival.
We will divide the total funds in three ways, since we are 3 that are involved. This means that you will take 20%, I will take 40%, and my superior will take 40%. . This business is confidential, and it should not be discussed with anyone. There is no risk involved whatsoever. If you are interested I will send you the full details, my job is to find a good partner that we can trust and that will assist us. REPLY URGENTLY so we can furnish with the detail of the fund ok.
hope to hear from you.

Dear,
I inherited a total sum of 12.3 million dollars from my late husband, this money which is concealed in a metallic trunk box is deposited with a security and finance company in Cote D' Ivoire Due to the instruction he laid down before he deposited the box,that he needed maximum security/safety of my consignment and no body nor government organization can trace where about of the box until were ready and prepare to claim it This deposit was coded under a secret arrangement as a family treasure.This means that the security company does not know the content of this trunk box.My main purpose of sending you this mail is because of the way I found you and perhaps trustworthy to give you this priority of shipping the box of money to any address that you think is very secure and save in your country with your percentage of which we shall chat on soon.In fact, since the death of my husband, his brothers has been seriously chasing me around with constant treats, trying to suppress me so that they might have the documents of his landed properties and confiscate them. They have successfully collected all his properties, yet they never stopped there, they told me to surrender all bank account of my late husband,which I did, but I never disclose to them this deposit with the security company in Abidjan- Cote d'Ivoire, because this is where my future and destiny lies upon.The family of my late husband never aware of the secret existence of this deposit which my late husband made with the security company and they can never be aware of it.Out of fear of my late husbands family, and when the situation becomes uncontrollable because of pressure on me from the family, I decide to look for a trustworthy person who could assist me retrieve this box of money from the security company for onward lodgement into his account for the purpose of future investment.Consider my situation as a widow and come to my rescue.There is need for urgent action because I'm paying $50 dollars per day as a domurrage to the security company for safe keeping this consignment.I give thanks immensely for your co-operation as I look forward to hear from you soon.All the best,
Mrs Rebecca Taylor

I admit geography has never been my strong subject in high school. Does anyone know where Abidjan- Cote d'Ivoire is? Or ever heard of? (as in out of their head, before searching online)

Goodday Ma/Sir,

With all due respect Sir/Ma, I want you to read my letter with one mind and help
me.I am Chantal Maktobo,the only child of late Mr and Mrs Maktobo.My Late father
was a very wealthy cocoa dealer in Abidjan,the economic capital of Cote D'Ivoire
before he was poisoned to death by his business associates on one of their outing
to discuss on a business deal.My mother died when i was a baby since then my
father took me so special because i am motherless.Before the death of my father on
22th October, 2008 in a private hospital here in abidjan. He secretly called me on
his bedside and told me that he has a sum of Ten million five hundred thousand
united states dollars(US$10,500,000.00) left in a suspense account in a local bank
here in abidjan, that he used my name as his only son for the Next of Kin in
deposit of the funds.

He also explained to me that it was because of this wealth that he was poisoned by
his business associates, that i should seek for a foreign partner in a country of
my choice where i will transfer this funds to him/her and use it for investment
purpose such as real estate/properties,Hotel and so on.Am 19years old, I am
honourably seeking your assistance in the following ways .

1) To provide any bank account where this money would be transfered.
2) To serve as the guardian of this funds.
3) To make arrangement for me to come over to your country to further my education
and to secure a residential permit for me in your country.
Moreover, Sir/Ma, i am willing to offer you 26 percent of the total sum as
compensation for your effort input after the successful transfer of this fund to
your nominated account in your country.I want you to help me not because of the 26
percent of my inheritance of USD10,500,000.00 but because of my life to live a
better life in your country.

I will be waiting urgently for more details to proceed to receive my
inheritance.Hope to hear from you soonest,thanks And GOD Blessing.

Best regards,
Chantal Maktobo.

So his father was able to explain to him that he was poisoned ? Does that mean the poison was not very efficient, and they can't use the time to cure him?

Yesterday my wife got an email (I didn't, same ISP) promoting an update for Adobe Reader. She was suspicious.

Researching: Others also have gotten this.
1. One example, has a link to
2. This. Scroll down for content.
3. CNet article.
4. Adobe warning.

I was unaware of this site ( http://www.hoax-slayer.com/ ) until looking into this incident.

I'm proud of my wife!

Good points, Paul. In my own household, it's only my wife and myself. She's also very astute when it comes to these things but even so, these reminders are good. In general I refuse to click on links within e-mails even if I know the person who has sent them.

In my 'household', just Laurent and I. Laurent knows not to trust emails (including those purport from US Banks) and hit the "Junk" or "Delete" button.

As for all sorts of software/security updates, I am the one does that on his iMac. And I know what I am doing.

According to an email from Mrs Sheerah King (actually, I received two), I am the lucky one as she said that she's giving me "Fifteen million united state dollars".

It is your work that enhances your worth


Its me Mrs Sheerah King, I want to donate what I have to the needy. You could be surprised why i picked you. But someone has to do it. I am old and living with HIV AIDS AND CANCER. I have been touched to donate from what I have inherited from my late husband to charity through you for the good work of humanity, rather than allow my relatives to use my husband's hardened funds inappropriately.

I hope to be forgiven for all my sins and I believe he has, because He is merciful. I have been living with HIV AIDS for years and i know that the disease has no cure therefore i will surely die.

I have made up my mind to give out (Fifteen million united state dollars) towards the fight against HIV AIDS and CANCER, and other human related diseases. I want this to be done through you. Part of the money would also be used to help the motherless, less privileged and also for the assistance of the widows. Presently, i can not answer calls due to the fact that my relatives are around me and I have been restricted by my doctor from taking telephone calls because I deserve all the rest I can get.

Presently, I have informed my lawyer about my decision in donating the funds. I wish you all the best and please use the money well and always extend the good work to others. If you are able to carry out this task, I will inform my legal adviser so that he can arrange the release of the funds to you. I know i have never met you but my mind tells me to do this, and I hope you act sincerely. I will pay you a handsome amount of this money if you will assist me because I am now weak to do things myself because of my HIV AIDS.

NB: I will appreciate your utmost secrecy in this matter until the task is carried out, as I don't want anything that will halter this my last wish Love.

Mrs Sheerah King.

PLEASE INCLUDE YOUR FULL NAME, ADDRESS, TELEPHONE/FAX NUMBER ON YOUR REPLY FOR EASY AND IMMEDIATE COMMUNICATION WITH MY CONSULTANT.
