These internet scams are pretty prevalent nowadays. I can't remember how many of these I've gotten that state different names in different countries. A good thing to do is NOT reply at all, not even to say no. If you reply, they get a hit on an active email address out there. See they send this stuff to anonymous email addresses, they don't know who checks them or not. If you reply at all, they got a live email address that they can send more lies to. Just ignore, put on a spam filter, and filters certain scam related words to go straight to the trash. Because these scams are so high in numbers, authorities cannot hunt down each one of the scammers, so it's best to ignore them. I hope this helps!

do not give anything to this email but a cheery delete. They are all scams which come out of the woodwork periodically. I have had a few from Nigeria,Canada and some fictitous bank in Africa,I do not even open them most of the time as tehy can contain worm virus or something nasty like that. Steer clear my friend and stay healthy!!

I get 20 or more of these every month as do many computer users. Most are the so-called "Nigerian" letters which proclaim that you are the heir to a fortune. ALL of these letters are scams and you should not open them. Just delete immediately, do not answer. Keep in mind that if it is too good to be true it is false!

It's obviously a scam, because no ones going to e-mail you and tell you that some distant relative died and you have inherited all that money. 5.2 Million, Cmon I think at least a telephone call would get you thinking, not an e-mail.

They get you to set up a bank acount with something like 500 bucks in it. They ask you to give them the acount number so that they can "make a deposit" for you. They take the money that you deposit. Not even a goodbye kiss and they are gone.

Well, if it was really that important, I am sure he would of called you instead of emailing youl. Therefore, it is most likely a scam. But it wouldn't hurt to consult your lawyer.

Dude, don't even respond to these emails. Don't even open them. If you don't know who the email is from, it's not worth opening.
