Originates from Germany.
Go on, surprise me...is it one of those scams saying that someone has died leaving a vast amount of money which is about to go to the Govt but you can claim it because you are a very distant relative? Eventually you are told that all you have to do is send £100 (or similar) to cover their admin/legal costs of claiming.
Like the other bloke said ..no legitimate firm has a Yahoo email address.

Hi there,
The general rule is that if you received an email from someone you don't know, who is offering you an amazing deal or business plan, it's a scam. Real business or money deals are simply not conducted that way. They use real email addresses from major, searchable company websites, will contact you by mail or phone, and will have prior personal involvement with you or your business. And they won't ask favours or do something that could clearly benefit you without you doing something significant in return.
Because this doesn't include the content of the email, I can't tell you the origin. However, please look at these examples of email scams and if it has any similarities, delete it!

The .de suffix is Germany. This sounds like a company but surely no legitimate company has a yahoo address. Sounds dodgy to me.

nicely its the subculture i imagine, human beings understand those with money over there, and are not too afflicted about what you had to do to get it. I once confronted a Nigerian scammer about his way of existence and he suggested particularly gently that he had no in charge emotions about scamming someone because he's conventional with he's in basic terms able to tear-off stupid human beings or grasping human beings or stupid grasping human beings, so in a way he became providing a provider by technique of education them a lesson and making a tidy sum doing it.

what are they telling you? If it sounds too good to be true then it will be a scam, dont even bother opening mail from people like this, they are after only one thing, your computer/mail details or money, just report as junk and delete.
