Scam
Goal is to rob you blind.
You need to forward e-mail like this to some place like
http://www.knujon.com/
so they can be relocated to prison
unless they are really coming from some country (other than Britain) that does not have laws against this stuff

They are real but they are also all scams. They send you check, ask you to cash them, (foolishly) wire them money less your 10% fee for cashing the checks, a short time later, all of those checks that you deposited into your account start coming back as being fraudulent and not only is YOUR checking account debited for the ENTIRE amount of the checks, you are charged returned check fees, overdraft fees and unless you come up with a repayment plan for the entire amount with your bank, they will file a police report on you for kiting checks and/or fraud and you will be charged criminally.
A recent trial in the news, that of Mary Winkler, the preacher's wife who killed her husband, was involved in one of those schemes and it was a contributing factor in that led to her murdering her husband.

There are no free lunches; the e mails are scams. They probably originate from Nigeria.
