Attention,

SCAM VICTIM REIMBURSEMENT.

I write to bring to your notice as a delegate from the Nigerian
Government Reimbursement committee under the strict supervision of the United
Nations to pay 230 Nigerian 419 scam victims the sum of $950,000.000.00 USD
(Nine Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars) each. You are hereby listed as one of the
beneficiaries for this payment.You are expected to get back to us as soon as
possible for your immediate reimbursement.

As a result of this laudable recommedations,it is imperative to bring
to your notice that during the last U.N. meeting held in Abuja, Nigeria, it was
alarmed by so many countries around the world about loss of funds by various
foreigners to these scam artists operating in syndicates all over the world
today.In other to redeem the good image of our dear country,the President has
ordered the immediate payment of $950,000.000.00 USD each to the affected
victims in accordance with the U.N. directives.

(blah, blah, blah)


The only folks that the United Nations recommends paying that kind of money to are the crooks running the joint.
