Thanks Every body! I was just checking to make sure every body was awake out there! I think I'll leave the question on for any one who may not know what to do with it tho! I'd like to give the first 10 responses best answer - but I'm not sure Yahoo will let me do that so we may have to vote on this one!!

I would throw it away immediately. If you give them your bank information you may discover that you don't have nearly as much money there as you used to.

that is spam, they are going to ask for some personal information so they can deposit the money into your account or you will have to call and that call will cost you major over seas charges. TRAsH IT!

I would ignore this letter. They are trying to get you to give them your banking information. They want you to believe they are going to put money into your account when they actually are trying to take money from your account. Do not ever give out any personal information such as this out to just anyone.

It's a SCAM!!! Have you been living under a rock?
If you received it by postal mail, turn it over to the postal authorities. If it was an e-mail, put it in you junk bin. Don't respond.

Forward it to:

Since 9/11 the U.S. Treasury Department has taken a keen interest and all of these "Nigerian" scams.
