Ha. Ha ha ha ha. Awesome e-mail where I could be RICH!!!
I checked my Spam folder today. Found the following email in it. He has "decided" that since I am from the same country and have a similiar last name, he will just give me $10million dollars.
This is my LUCKY DAY!!!!
Hello.
My names are Tadayoshi Yasuda Corporate Auditor with Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ. I am getting in touch with you regarding the estate of a deceased client with similar last name and an investment placed under our banks management.
During our last annual inspections audit of our bank accounts here in Japan, My department found a dormant account with an enormous sum of US$10,500,000.00 (Ten Million Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars Only) which was deposited by one of your a national.
The deceased account has been declared to be dormant since some years and these funds will be confiscated / declared unusable and turned to the Japanese government if the deceased business associates or next-of-kin did not claim this money; since all efforts to trace any living relative of the deceased proved abortive, i have decided that i will have you claim this money as the deceased business associate/or next-of-kin, since you are from the same country and perhaps may have some similarities in certain areas. Everything concerning this transaction shall be LEGALLY done without hitch.
I will need us to work together if you are interested, and I assure you that I will provide all useful information's and documentation that we enable us transfer this funds into your bank account legally without any problem. I would explain better to you upon hearing from you as I wait to hear from you soon. Kindly write me directly with your contacts on my private email: tadayoshiyasuda@yahoo.com.hk
It's almost like "Let's not really even try THAT hard to hide that this is a scam!!!!".

Since you are about to become a millionaire I was wondering can I borrow some money? I'm good for it, I promise. Not even that much money, just a couple hundred thousand. That's going to be pocket change to you.
Just think about it. I know your a good hearted person who would eagerly help out someone in need.
