I get at least a hundred of these a week and they are all scams. Many of them are generated by the same people. The first thing I notice is the grammar is very poor, and the terms used in the letter seem like a non English speaker put them together. You can almost detect the accent of the person writing them. Just mark it as spam and delete it. Never open links in your email if you don't know who it is from or provide any information that is of a personal nature if you are solicited for it. I have received tons of emails from people pretending to be part of pay-pal eBay, banks you name it. Be super careful, no one out there wants to give anyone anything, but they will take from you.

I got one of these too and just deleted it. I am very pessimistic and would rather delete and not get scammed then be optimistic and waste my time on something that will more than likely never happen.

Do you really want to give your name, phone number and address to a complete stranger who sent you an email? You could be giving your info to a serial killer, or you could wind up with your face on a missing poster......think about it.
