I get my funds from a diplomatic courier

Dr. Andy's e-mail wasn't formatted all that well. So it's not easy to read.

This is a favorite ploy which suggests that you are dealing with officials of the state bank in Nigeria. Would you believe a state official using a Yahoo freemail account?

Money Transfer Fraud | Central Bank of Nigeria | Patrick Uri

Reading this e-mail you might ask yourself "When did I have anything to do with an inheritance from Africa?".

This question might prompt you to answer the message or call Mr. Engineer Uri to tell him he made a mistake, as you have never had any dealings with Africa.

That's basically what they want you to do. That way they have a chance to get you to play their game.

Once you are on board, the scam begins …
