You will not get in any trouble if you give this guy money. You may result in giving this guy more than you think.
This is a scam, THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF SERVICES IN AFRICA AND AROUND THE WORLD TO HELP PEOPLE THAT want and need it. People that can afford computers, and Internet services, can find these AGENCIES. Do your self a favor and stay away from this and anything like this.
IF YOU ARE DOING IT FOR YOUR GAIN, YOU WILL LOOSE.
IF YOU ARE DOING IT TO HELP, This is the wrong way.

It's a scam, they send thousands of these emails out to thousands of people looking for some uneducated person to send them their personal and banking information to them. They are setup with real telephone operators and "fake" lawyers (most of these countries don't have regulations against these type of business, just like prostitution). So the best thing to do is press the 'Delete' or 'Del' key and be happy! If you ever be offered 15 million, for sure it will not come in an emai.

Absolutely a scam! I get hundreds of similar emails. It's astonishing to me how many gullible people actually answer them!! And how many honest businessmen would just pull a name out of a hat and ask to do a $15.5 million transaction.
These scams suck in greedy people with promises of wealth. In fact, they want your account info so they can drain it. Then they'll threaten you with harm if you don't send more. Also, you have no idea who these people are and what kind of things your money could be funding.
Report it as spam and delete it. Do the same with any others you receive.

Definitely a scam (google 419 for more info).
Don't give any details, don't send any money. Just delete the e-mail.
