This is the single best written "Advance Fee Fraud" (also known as Nigerian 419 Scam) email I have ever recieved. The gold? The first sentence where he acknowledges that my inbox is probably flooded with amazingly similar offers … but, of course, his is legit. There’s also a nice bit at the end about how this whole proposed deal is legal.

Uh, huh … legal.

[It goes without saying ... but I'll say it anyway: this is still a scam, don't be a sucker.]

Good day!

I know the internet is already flooded with such messages of invitation for business proposals; i am sure you receive such messages.Though, this medium(Internet) has been greatly abused and cannot be trusted anymore in this time of age, I still choose to reach you through it because it still remains the fastest, surest and most secured medium of communication to curb this Opportunity of a life time. However,this correspondence is unofficial and private, and it should be treated as such. I also guarantee you that this deal is hitch free from all what you may think of.

Upon special auditing panel set-up by the Boards of directors of my ISLE OF MAN BANK LTD (London Branch, UK) to investigate all credit account operated by it costumers, that has been in operation for the last five (5) years. I discovered a credit account with A/C N0: NL85ABNA6008341843 floating with a huge funds amounting to(7,467,000.00 USD.).

On further trace I came across the file and found out that the true owner of this funds is Mr. Andreas Schranner, a German who was a property magnate unfortunately lost his life, including his wife and their daughter in the plane crash ( Flight AF4590) which crashed on July 31st 2000 killing all 109 people on board.
